Common questions

Is there a reserve?

Some properties have a hidden reserve price. The listing will tell you whether the reserve has been met.

Can I retract a bid?

No. Every bid is a binding commitment to buy at that price under the posted terms.

Can I see the property first?

Yes — contact us to schedule a showing or check the listing for open inspection dates.

Do I need financing in place?

Properties sell without financing contingencies, so arrange your financing before bidding.
