It is certainly true that real estate professionals take varying views of the auction process. It should be interesting to see how things unfold going forward and how the role of auctions in real estate develop over time.

Great article. I agree with you 100%. It’s interesting to see such a range of Realtors who understand change and embrace it while so many others, let themselves be turned off by the word “auction” without even investigating anything about them.

I too see the benefit of online auctions which will not disappear even in a buyer’s market.

Thank you for your comment. I think that there is quite a bit of fear about auctions. Much of this simply stems from agents unfamiliarity with auctions as a marketing tool. In our rapidly changing world, I believe that success, or lack thereof will be largely the result of a person’s ability to adapt and grow.

When it comes right down to it, auctions are simply another way to serve the public and help consumers achieve their real estate goals.

Thanks again,

Thanks for the excellent breakdown of benefits for all parties involved. If this doesn’t help agents “see the light” about auctions, I’m not sure what will!
