WHO SHOULD SELL THEIR HOME BY THE AUCTION METHOD?

Anyone! Auction is the oldest form of selling property, and the only method that allows you, the seller, to be in control through the entire process. There are two groups that I will highlight for you, sellers who wish to downsize for a lifestyle change and sellers who must move due to ill health or the loss of a loved one.

First, a real estate auction can be live or an online event. Either way, the process is open, transparent, competitive and time defined on your terms. At auction, buyers arrive at a fair market-driven price while the sellers realize the best value for their beloved property. In addition, Ron Denney, Auctioneer can also sell your contents in much the same way. This allows you to work with one partner during your transition.

Sellers often wonder how to stay in control during the downsizing process. First, consider auction over a traditional real estate model as you are about to make some very important choices about your future. You should always be in control and dictate the terms of your transaction. How do you stay in the driver’s seat? First, have all the information before you proceed. Let’s sit down and talk about your needs. Then let’s talk again and go over a proposal of sale dedicated to meeting your needs, with a marketing plan crafted just for you. When you have a full understanding of what’s best for you, the stress is diminished.

Here Are Some Tips:

1. Set clear goals and timelines, then tell everyone you are working with exactly what you want and what your expectations are from the beginning.
2. It’s ok to say, “NO!” You should feel comfortable not pressured.
3. Think long term.
4. Make a list of 5 good reasons for lifestyle scenarios which make the thought of downsizing encouraging for you. Revisit this list on days that you feel unsure. Discuss these reasons with family or friends. Ask questions, there are no silly questions.
5. The first step is often the hardest. Healing begins when the big picture decisions are confirmed.

CONTROL:
Briefly, exactly what does it mean “being in control of the process and your sale” to prepare for transition? In a private treaty real estate transaction with a realtor, the buyer for whom you search holds all the cards with regard to terms of the sale. The marketing plan to reach this buyer is a one size fits all plan implementation, then sit and wait. Then a buyer establishes the price, the possession, closing dates, deposit amounts, desired contingencies then finally presenting you the seller with needs following inspections. Erase this concept from your mind for a moment and imagine this. Your sale, by the auction method, is conducted subject to terms such as: sold as-is; required deposit amount in liquid funds; no contingencies on financing or the sale of a property; close within 30 days; a buyer’s premium in effect rather than seller costs to a realtor or closing fees. Ron Denney, Auctioneer wants your auction sale to benefit you, the seller. In addition, our superior advertising efforts are concentrated, focused, far reaching and professional to gain you the greatest visibility.

DOWNSIZING:
“There is just way too much stuff in here, I can’t move!” Don’t let the weight of your possessions, the emotions attached to things or the uncertainty of what to do with them delay your future. It is much easier than you may think to get started. -To begin, make a list room by room of each item that you can see which you would keep and take to your new home with you. -Make a list room by room of each item that you can see of excess possessions that you plan to give to family or friends. -Make a list room by room of each item that you can see which is still in great shape that may be of interest to others in an auction sale. -Make a list room by room of items that you would like to donate to a charity.
Then, begin placing names next to items for family and friends and have discussions about how and when to move them. Second, plan a date by which you want to gather donations and have them picked up making the necessary contact. At this point Ron Denney, Auctioneer can look at the items you plan to sell and discuss a competitive online auction platform to make the process easy.

VALUE:
What is the real estate market doing? We will sit down and talk about that in real time. While everyone should get the best price for their home, holding out indefinitely for a certain price or trying to wait out a market can do more harm than good, and is often a sign of fear or dragging your feet. You can miss important change which will bring on improvements to lifestyle such as improved healthcare, social aspects and more. Don’t let your dreams of the next life phase pass you by because you have a magic number in mind. Auctions bring FAIR MARKET VALUE in a time defined open process which allows you to move on.

“If you want to sell your property, there is nobody better out there than Mr. Denney. He took
care of everything, making the selling of my real estate and personal property hassle-free. He is the
BEST!”

Jodi Puterbaugh – Bellbrook , OH

 

We have sold several properties and estates for Mr. Arnovitz
 

“I have used Ron for several properties, including liquidating my cousins estate. The process
was professional and extremely effective. I consider him a trusted adviser that has been
mutually very good for both of us. Not only have I used him for some of my own properties,
I also have referred several of my clients to him when the auction process seemed like the best
method to obtain the clients goals and objectives. He has a vast knowledge of the real
estate business and I look forward to working with him in the future.”
