Top FAQs
Will I be able to inspect the property before I bid?
Typically, no. Many properties will be sold "as is, where is," with all faults and limitations. You'll need to estimate any renovation costs from a distance. Even if you believe the home is vacant, treat it as occupied. These homes have not transferred ownership yet and walking on or entering the property is trespassing.
Does Auction.com have any more information on this property?
Like other real estate transactions, you should conduct careful due diligence before purchasing a property at auction. Common research items include local market value, property condition, and title report.
Please note, Auction.com is not the seller for any property made available online, and all information and photos to Auction.com have been made available on this page.
Will the property be free and clear of all liens?
Not necessarily. You should seek independent advice to perform your own due diligence and fully understand the foreclosure process and foreclosure sales in general. It is your responsibility to do a title search and seek any professional counsel before bidding.
Can I use financing to buy this property?
Typically, no. Be sure to check the property listing to see if financing is considered. Most properties on Auction.com are sold cash-only. That means you must pay the entire purchase amount by the closing date.
What happens if I am the winning bidder?
If you are the highest bidder at the end of an auction, here are your post-auction obligations:
- Contract Information: You'll receive an email confirming you have the highest bid. You will then need to provide important contracting information by filling out a form online. You can preview the required information on this form as a printable checklist. Make sure to submit the form within 1 business day.
- Purchase Agreement: Once everything is verified, the Purchase Agreement will be generated and you will need to sign and return the document for the seller to review and sign.
- Proof of Funds: You need to provide Auction.com a copy of your Proof of Funds by email within 2 business days.
- Earnest Money Deposit: Unless otherwise specified on your purchase agreement, you will need to send the Earnest Money Deposit to the closing company within 2 business days of receiving the transfer instructions. Send Auction.com a copy of your confirmation receipt within 1 business day of sending funds.
