Charter Machinery works regularly with insolvency practitioners, administrators, and receivers across the UK. We understand the reporting cadence, the audit trail you need, and the timeline pressure that comes with formal appointments.
Every machine valued in writing. Every offer logged. Every sale documented to the standard your firm requires for the report to creditors. The process is defensible from the first valuation conversation through to remittance.
Why Charter for this
- Written valuations with the methodology disclosed — defensible against creditor challenge.
- Full audit trail from inspection through to sale and remittance.
- Marketing transparency — we report the buyer pool, the offers received, and the rationale for the accepted price.
- Global buyer network maximises realisation vs a UK-only auction.
- 0% sellers fees — every penny of the agreed price goes to the estate.
- Logistics handled in line with the appointment's site-access constraints.
What's different about this process
IP-led sales usually need a faster timeline and a more documented process than a standard machinery sale. The valuation report is delivered in writing within the appointment's reporting window; the marketing approach and timeline are agreed before any listing goes live.
