This auction begins closing on May 7th, 2024, at 6 pm; however, bidding will remain open on this property until 3 minutes have passed without receiving a bid. This soft close ensures fairness and allows the highest bidder to win. Auctioneer reserves the right to shorten this time.

You are NOT bidding by the acre. You are bidding to pay a lump sum dollar amount for the property.

A 10% Buyers Premium will be added to the winning bid to determine the purchase price of the property. The bid prices shown on the auction website DO NOT include the Buyer's Premium. Please bid accordingly. 

If your bid is accepted, you are obligated to buy the Property and agree to pay the total purchase price, including your bid, the 10% buyer’s premium, and half of the standard fees charged by the title company to close the transaction.

The successful Bidder at auction will be required to tender a non-refundable deposit in the amount of 10% of the final purchase price by electronic transfer or other method specified by the Auctioneer within one business day after the conclusion of the auction. Failure to tender the earnest money deposit will be a default.

Title 15, Section 1 of the U.S. Code makes any agreement amongst potential bidders not to bid against one another, or to otherwise dampen bidding illegal. The law provides for fines of up to $100,000,000 for a corporate offender and $1,000,000 for an individual, plus imprisonment for up to 10 years.
