Should Auction Be Your First Choice?

Real estate auctions have been undergoing a surge in popularity in recent years. In fact,according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), auction is the fastest growing segment of real estate. The NAR states the number of residential properties sold at auction grew by 50% in the last 4 years, and the majority of these auctions are not distressed auctions.

What’s going on here? A couple of things are fueling this trend. In the current housing market,there is not only a huge surplus of homes sitting on the market, but a reduced number of buyers who can qualify for financing. And sellers are looking for alternatives. Rather than staying trapped in their homes during the long sales cycle typical to the traditional list and sell method, many are choosing to sell their property via an individual auction.

Is auction the right way for you to sell? Here are some things to ask yourself:

  • Do you need immediate cash?
  • Are you moving out of state?
  • Are high carrying costs (mortgage, taxes, maintenance) becoming a burden?
  • Do you need to liquidate an estate?
  • Are you retiring?
  • Is your listing about to expire?
  • Have you purchased another house?
  • Have you had a partnership or marriage breakup?
  • Do you have at least 25% equity in your home?
  • Is your property unique – mountain view, waterfront, is it exceptionally features like this excite people and encourage more competitive bidding.
  • Are you planning to downsize, divorce or move out of state?
  • Is it of value to you to know the exact date of sale?
  • Is the property vacant? Quick disposal eliminates the risk of vandalism.
  • Developer needing to jump start sales? A well executed auction builds viral interest in your subdivision.
