Benefits

  • Contracts can be signed ‘subject to’ certain conditions such as building reports and finance approval
  • Flexibility in the length of time your property is on the market
  • Going to Auction generates interest from multiple buyers – buyers are invited to bid, or, put their best price forward to secure the property – the highest bidder at the end of Auction is the successful buyer providing the price has matched or exceeded reserve
  • Going to Auctions generates urgency and can result in 1) best offer comes in and Sold before Auction day, or, 2) Sold under the hammer at Auction, or 3) Sold post Auction
  • Owner has the advantage of setting the reserve price and sale date
  • laser focussed marketing plan with pre-arranged inspections
  • Auction creates a sense of urgency so buyers must act within a specific timeframe
  • You can Save thousands of dollars by advertising your own property – no excessive commission.
  • You stay in control of the greatest asset of your life
  • You don’t need to put up with unreliable agents letting you down
  • You can take advantage of doing your own research on likely selling price or property value by using the real estate portals available to the public i.e. recent sales; similar homes on the market in your neighbourhood
  • You get to feel better about tracking your own property in the market in real time
  • you get to work alongside a licensed real estate agent and auctioneer who is OPENN Negotiation certified saving you $000,

Drawbacks

  • It can take longer for the property to sell compared to Auction
  • More frequent open for inspection times less convenient for owners
  • pricing strategy must be right – pricing above market value can result in little interest – buyers will compare other properties in the price range leaving the over priced property as the perceived ” least value for money”
  • Many buyers will not bid at auction because they feel it is too stressful and not transparent
  • The highest price achieved at auction is an indication of the value the market is prepared to pay – this may be lower than the owner’s expectations
  • Buyers may not want to negotiate directly with the owner.
  • Some buyer comments on what is ‘wrong’ with the property can be cutting. Genuine buyers who don’t wish to offend by voicing their concerns may simply decide to move on to another property
  • Professional agents may offer prospects on their buyer database VIP viewings before opening the property to public inspection
  • As the owner of the property you may not be able to detach and remain objective when it comes to the marketing, selling and negotiation process
