  • Why use the auction method to sell Real Estate?

    Timeliness – Average property is sold within a 4–6-week time frame and closes in 30 days or less.


    Ease – No contingencies are allowed. The property is sold ‘As Is’ with no repairs needed.


    Fewer Fall-Through – Buyers come prepared to buy with cash or financing in place; must put down a substantial, non-refundable earnest money deposit or 10% of the purchase price if the winning bidder. As a result, fewer deals fall apart with the auction method.
