***Special Terms/Conditions***
THIS IS A ONLINE ONLY MULTI-PARCEL AUCTION AND WILL BE CONDUCTED AS FOLLOWS:
The core of a multi-parcel auction involves multiple bidding rounds to arrive at the sale price.
- Round 1: Individual parcels or "tracts" are auctioned off one by one, establishing an high bid for each tract. This auction has only 2 (two) separate parcels or tracts.
- Round 2: With the initial bids on the board, bidders can now bid on the combination of the tracts. There can be unlimited combinations in a multi-parcel auction, but in this specific auction here is only 1 (one) combination since there are only two available tracts. The auctioneer will calculate the total value of the combination bid and compare it against the total value of the individual bids.
- Subsequent Rounds: Bidders are then able to raise their bids on individual tracts to defend their position against the combination bid if necessary. Auctioneer will complete as many rounds of bidding as needed.
- Final sale: All rounds of bidding will remain open to allow bidding for a minimum of 3 minutes per lot. When a bid is placed during a round, the 3 minute clock is restarted. The auction ends when all bidding ceases and no bid is placed during the 3 minute period for each of the 3 lots (House, Acreage and combination) consecutively. In other words, bidding will continue until no further bids are placed, giving everyone a fair and equal opportunity to bid. The property is sold in the combination of bids (either individual tracts or the entire property) that results in the highest overall total sale price. All bids are final and no upset bid period applies.
Auctioneer/broker represents the seller and at all times is a seller's agent..

A deposit of 5% (Five Percent) is required as an earnest money deposit in the form of a certified check or wire transfer.

Buyer's Premium:
There will be a Ten Percent (10%) Buyer’s Premium added to the final bid price to determine the final contract purchase price. For example, a bid of $100,000 is a contract price of $110,000.
