Real Estate Auctions
Click a button. Raise a paddle. Buy a house. It's just that easy--and that risky. Auctions offer opportunities and benefits and they don't only take place on the courthouse steps. They also provide the opportunity to lose one's shirt.

You’ll explore the benefits and detriments of buying or selling at auction, and you’ll finish with a greater understanding of your auction-related responsibilities when working with buyers, sellers, or on your own behalf as an investor, listing agent, referral source, cooperating agent, or even auctioneer.
