Do you have luxury real estate valued at $2 million or more that just won't sell?  You can continue to try selling it through traditional means, but that could takes months if not a year or more.  In the meantime, you'll spend thousands of dollars in carrying costs.  You'll probably use one price reduction after another trying to get a buyer.  The buyers will continue to watch your price fall, because there is no sense of urgency to act.  This is why selling luxury real estate at auction is the answer.  You can immediately stop dropping your price and put a timeline on when your house will sell.  If it's a nice house, this will cause buyers to act now, because they know tomorrow will be too late.  Auctions also creates competition among buyers on auction day, which results in a good selling price for your home.

Our company has sold hundreds of homes all over the country using this method.  We specialize in only luxury properties, and have a great reputation and many referrals from previous clients.  Our buyers are pre-qualified, closings happen in 30 days, there are no contingencies, and properties are sold as is.  We get the property sold generally in 60-90 days.

If you would like to discuss the option of selling through auction, please call me so we can discuss your property to see if we can assist you.  We also work directly with real estate agents that refer clients to us and pay a referral.
