What is a Real Estate Auction?

A real estate auction is an innovative and effective method of selling real estate. It is an intense, accelerated real estate marketing process that involves the public sale of any property—most certainly including those that are non-distressed—through open cry and online competitive bidding.
The real estate auction is a win-win proposition for everyone involved.
