We are not just auctioneers. Auction Advisors and its principals are licensed and trained as brokers. At the core, our service is to effectively facilitate the process of selling properties on behalf of clients with a special (but not exclusive) focus on distressed situations. Therefore, we often are engaged to play a more conventional brokerage role. When doing so, we act as intermediaries between buyers and sellers, helping to match individuals or businesses with suitable properties and guiding them through the intricate process of a real estate or business transaction. Our services in this area overlap in some respect with our auction services, but do encompass the full range of activities designed to make the buying or selling experience smoother and more efficient.
Key components of our conventional brokerage services include:
Property Listing and Promotion:
We assist sellers in determining an appropriate asking price for their property, create detailed listings, and promote the property through various marketing channels such as online listings, print advertisements, and open houses.
Market Analysis:
We conduct market research to provide clients with insights into current market conditions, trends, and comparable property values. This helps sellers set competitive prices and buyers make informed decisions.
Negotiation:
We act as skilled negotiators on behalf of their clients, working to achieve favorable terms, structure and prices during the selling process. We can help navigate counteroffers, contingencies, and other negotiations.
Legal and Documentation Assistance:
Real estate or corporate transactions involve extensive legal documentation. We help ensure that all necessary paperwork, contracts, and disclosures are properly prepared and executed according to legal requirements and in a way that ultimately serves the Seller’s interests.
Networking:
We have an extensive network of contacts within the real estate and other industries beyond our list of in-the-market buyers. This can include other brokers, agents, appraisers, inspectors, and lenders. This network can provide valuable resources for clients throughout the transaction process.
Client Representation:
Auction Advisors represent the best interests of their clients, providing expert advice, answering questions, and guiding them through the complexities of a transaction.
