FAQ’S
Understanding the unique dynamics of each auction is crucial before you begin bidding. Factors like market conditions, the number and seriousness of other bidders, and the seller’s motivations all play a significant role. Additionally, knowing the strategies auctioneers and real estate agents use to drive up the price is essential for success. Engaging an expert buyer’s agent with established real estate connections and auction experience can significantly enhance your chances of securing the property you want.
If a property doesn’t sell at auction (passes in), negotiating with the vendor can often be more advantageous than bidding against yourself during the auction. Post-auction negotiations offer an opportunity to engage more directly with the vendor and potentially secure the property at a favorable price. To make the most of this, it’s vital to plan your negotiation strategy carefully and understand the property’s value and market conditions.
