An Auction should be a Sellers' first choice, not a last resort, as there is no better way to bring buyers to the market place or draw attention to your property.
Zillow.com reports that The National Association of Realtors predicts that by 2010 one-third of all properties sold in the U.S. will be sold at auction. According to the National Association of Auctioneers, real estate auctions are generating $16 billion per year and growing as smart, motivated Sellers and Buyers catch on to these quick, clean and fair real estate transactions.
