Auctions Are Often Thought of as "Fire Sales" For Properties in Distress. Is this True?

Until recently, real estate auctions, unlike art and antique auctions, have experienced unfounded negative images in the marketplace. The majority of auctions today don't result from foreclosure of distress situations, but rather are the result of a seller choosing a cost-effective, accelerate method to sell a property. Builders or financial institutions, for example, prefer auction rather than laboring for months or years to sell units of a development one by one. Auctions in Baltimore City allows the seller to eliminate virtually all long-term carrying costs, passing the savings directly to the purchaser in the form of a reduced price. Auction is truly a win-win situation: sellers obtain immediate cash and buyers purchase properties at fair market value, the price determined by open, competitive bidding. Maryland residents enjoy the advantages of the Auction Method in Baltimore City.

What Factors Impact the Success of an Auction in Baltimore?

1. The seller must have realistic expectations, including a fair sales price, terms and timing.
2. The desirability of the property. This includes location, conditions, plus the value of surrounding properties.
3. Since a variety of auction methods are available, carefully choose the auction type that best suits the property and the seller's needs. Maryland has seen a great success in the Auction Method of Marketing Properties.
   
4. A well planned, aggressive marketing/advertising campaign targeted to prospective purchasers is critical to an auction's success.
   
5. Using a recognized real estate auction company or a REALTOR® auctioneer to ensure the auction is conducted in a professional manner and followed-up through closing. We serve Harford,Baltimore, Cecil and Surrounding Areas.
   
6. Making sure that due diligence information is provided to prospective buyers AHEAD OF TIME.
7. Preparing the property for sale so it is presented to prospects in its best condition. (i.e.., title insurance, clean-up, financing, etc...)

Most properties are salable by auction. All types of real estate, including residential property (e.g., town homes, condominiums, cooperative apartments and single-family homes), commercial and industrial property, vacant land and even boat slips are sold at auction. Not all property, however, is suited for auction. If a property will only appeal to a narrow market, auction may not be the most effective marketing method.

My question is, does this affect your overall Rank with Google? Can it drag your load time on your page thus be passed by from the Spiders?

I recently put this on my Auction webpage Click Here To View and I really like it. I think it compels visitors to stay longer however I want to make sure Google would somehow recognize it and throw me a bone! (Or an increase in my Rank)

Thank you for your insight.

REALTORS® are taking a second look at the Auction Method

Robert B. McArtor, REALTOR® with Long and Foster Real Estate, Inc. and Noted Real Estate Auctioneer in Maryland has been working with and educating Real Estate Agents on the Auction Method of Marketing since 1991. "It was tough in the beginning", Robert explains the early days, "Why would an agent want to turn a client over to an Auctioneer? Don't they just sell antiques, cars and furniture?".

According to the National Auctioneers Association, Residential real estate auctions continue to be one of the fastest growing segments of the live auction industry with an estimated growth of 3.1% since the end of the second quarter. Total real estate revenues for 2006 include: Residential Real Estate ($16.0 billion), Commercial/Industrial ($15.0 billion), and Land/Agricultural ($25.3 billion).

Now with a changing market, Auctions have become a popular method among aggressive sellers to sell their property. "This is certainly a win-win situation for everyone involved......Sellers need to sell their house, Agents want a commission, the Auctioneer utilizes the Auction Method to market the property and the entire process ends at the settlement table in less than 60 days."

Robert McArtor has been Auctioning Real Estate since he was 21 years old. Now, at the age of 37, he is celebrating 16 years in the business and recently realized over $25 Million in sales in 2007 alone. "Between foreclosure auctions, home owner ordered sales, this has been a very busy year.........we are expecting to see a tremendous rise in auctions through-out the Baltimore-Metro area." Mr. McArtor says that more and more Sellers are frustrated with the lack of Buyers in the market place and are looking for a quick sale. With the Auction Method, the Seller can sell their home in "As-Is" condition with a non-contingent contract, eliminate high carrying costs and settle in as little as 30 days. "I love explaining the Auction Method to Realtors®. Once they have the knowledge, it's simply a matter of suggesting an Auction to a qualified client". Robert goes on to say, "The fact that I am also a REALTOR® and subscribe to a Strict Code of Ethics makes the Real Estate Practitioner and Client feel comfortable.....this is just an additional marketing tool the agent can use and get PAID to use it!"
