HOW DOES THE AUCTION PROCESS WORK?
In conjunction with your agent, we showcase your property to targeted members of our global database of more than 760,000 individuals, including our Private Client Group of high-net-worth buyers, agents, and industry experts. The process typically results in 200–400 prospects, 25+ showings, and 3–7 qualified buyers competing for your property. Before the auction opens, you can decide whether to move forward after reviewing the field of bidders and their opening bids.
AREN’T AUCTIONS ONLY FOR DISTRESSED PROPERTIES?
