What Should Buyers Know About Auctions? Vicky Chrisner aka " The Real Estate Whisperer" is a Certified Auction Specialist. Here is what she has to say about Auctions!

Auctions are just one more tool, which can be good for both buyers and seller in today's market. As they are being used with increasing frequency, I get more and more questions... and I hear potential buyers saying things that they assume but which are completely wrong. Sadly, I also hear inaccuracies about auctions and intimidation with the auction process, even from real estate agents.

So, as a Certified Auction Specialist, and an agent who works with both buyers and sellers, I thought I should make an effort to educate the public on the process. As it is a large topic, I will attempt to share what I know through a series of posts...which are intended to educate buyers, sellers and the general public.
