So why do an auction to sell your Home?

The seller gets to determine the date and time which the property will be sold. Using the auction method, property can typically be marketed and sold within a four to six week time frame.

A timely auction allows the seller to drastically reduce holding costs such as taxes, insurance and maintenance.

An auction environment arouses the competitive spirit among the prospective bidders.

Setting a specific date and time of sale creates a sense of urgency and forces the prospective buyers to a point of decision.

The seller can set the terms of the auction, thereby avoiding lengthy negotiations of price and terms.

An advertising program is tailored to the seller’s property which will attract the largest number of potential buyers. This insures a true “market value” price for the property on the day of the auction.

There is no ceiling price set on the property, which allows the price to increase freely with no limit.

Historically, when the market is on the upswing, public auctions have established the highest prices. When the market is declining, an auction captures the current market price before values drop.

The competitive bidding format creates confidence among the buyers when they see other people willing to pay a similar amount for the property.
