Tentative Order of Sale:
- House Tracts Pick and Choice By the Dollar
- Tracts 1 - 11 Pick and Choice By the Acre
- Combination Phase
- As a Whole
The Real Estate will be offered in tracts and combinations of tracts. We reserve the right to then offer the property in combinations and/or as a whole.
This will be an owner-confirmation auction which means the seller has the right to accept or reject the final bid.
These Tracts (1-11) will be sold “PICK AND CHOICE – BY THE ACRE”.
Buyers will be bidding by “ACRE Amount” for individual tract or multiples of tracts. So, if you bid $5000 and pick a 5-acre tract, your total bid price is $25,000.
When the auctioneer says sold, the buyer will then tell us which Tract or Tracts he wants.
At this point, the auction starts over again until we are finished.
We are not designating what lots we are selling, you as the purchaser tell us which lot or lots you want when we say sold!
This is a 10% Buyers Premium auction sale: If you pay $10,000 for a Tract you must add 10% which is $1,000 and your final sales price is $11,000.
Sale day you will pay 10% of your sales price down and the closing can be on or before 30 days. We have already had the title run and we find many of our customers want to close on the following week of the sale so that they may take possession of their property, and we can assist you with that.
