Yes, in most cases you can. It is not uncommon for a bidder to want to purchase a property prior to auction. Instructions for making a pre-auction offer are usually included in the bid package. If not, feel free to contact us regarding the property that you’re interested in purchasing. Any agreement to purchase the property prior to auction will need to be made before the auction begins. Once the auction is in progress, the auction must run its course.

Absolutely! In fact, we recommend it. Details on how to view a property prior to bidding are included in each auction listing.

When we list a property for auction, we try to provide all available information. We collect information from the owner/seller, we gather information from the local tax authorities, the county offices, and other sources. We do a complete map and boundary analysis. Depending on the property type, we often have soil surveys, property inspections, flood zone survey, or other studies that might be useful to a buyer. We suggest contacting the same entities and offices that we do in our process – county clerks, state/county/local taxing jurisdictions, surveyors, etc. Although we try to provide everything we know about a property in the bid package, if you do have specific questions, please contact us and we’ll do our best to get answers.

Generally, closing is quick. Prior to the auction, we’ve already done much of the work required to close. The actual document preparation only takes a few days. However, the deed is sent to the appropriate county clerk for recording, so everyone is at the mercy of government speed. In most cases, though, the county offices record and return deeds in 7-10 days. The entire process normally takes 2-3 weeks. We keep you posted every step of the way so you’ll know exactly where we are in the process.
