Why Purchase Property at Auction?

Steps to Purchasing Property at Auction

As with any other real estate purchase, it's important to do your homework. Here are some steps we suggest:

Try to attend several real estate auctions before you become an active bidder. This will help you familiarize yourself with the auction environment and provide a better understanding of bidding strategyrnStudy the information available on the property.rnDecide whether you wish to be represented by a real estate broker. If you do, be sure to have your broker review and register with our broker participation form as soon as possible.rnRequest a Property Information Package (PIP). This packet contains detailed information about the property such as property disclosure, plats, pictures, survey reports, auction terms and conditions, demographics, zoning information and floor plans.rnVisit the property on preview dates. Open houses are held approximately 1-2 weeks prior to the auction date. During property previews you are encouraged to ask questions and become familiar with all aspects of the property. Our properties are sold “as is-where is” without contingencies of any kind (other than a clear title). We strongly encourage prospective bidders to inspect the property and become familiar with all aspects of the property and auction prior to auction day.rnReview all auction documents-You should know exactly what you are bidding on and what terms and conditions you will be signing and agreeing to.rnArrange financing, if needed. You'll want to have any needed financing arranged before auction day.rnVerify bidder registration requirements. AJ Karas Auctioneers require a cashier’s check to be eligible to register to bid.
