Auction Bidding Service

Professional Auction Bidding Representation

Property auctions are high-pressure environments designed to create urgency and extract maximum price from emotional buyers. Our Auction Bidding Service puts a cool-headed professional in your corner.

The Auction Challenge

Auctions favor sellers. The public environment, competitive pressure, and auctioneer’s tactics all work to push prices higher. Most buyers either:

• Overbid in panic - Caught up in competition, they pay more than they intended
• Underbid and lose - Hesitant to bid decisively, they miss opportunities
• Make emotional decisions - The pressure leads to poor choices

Our auction specialists have attended hundreds of auctions. They know the tactics, the psychology, and the strategies that work.

Our Auction Approach

Pre-Auction Preparation We don’t just show up on auction day. We meet with you beforehand to:

• Assess the property’s market value using comparable sales
• Determine your maximum bid ceiling based on data, not emotion
• Develop a bidding strategy tailored to the specific auction
• Discuss scenarios and contingencies

Auction Day Execution On the day, we:

• Arrive early to assess the competition
• Position strategically for maximum visibility
• Execute the agreed bidding strategy
• Stay calm and disciplined under pressure
• Know when to push and when to walk away

Post-Auction Negotiation If the property passes in (doesn’t reach reserve), we negotiate directly with the vendor. Often, this is where the best deals happen, away from the competitive auction environment.

Why Professional Representation Matters

Consider this: auctioneers and selling agents conduct dozens of auctions. They know every psychological trigger to extract higher bids. Most buyers attend an auction once every few years.

Having professional representation levels that playing field. Our bidders:

• Don’t get caught up in auction fever
• Know when opening bids are strategic vs desperate
• Understand bid increment psychology
• Can read the room and competition
• Execute strategy without emotional attachment

Pricing Structure

Our Auction Bidding Service is priced at $3,000 - $5,000 (plus GST). Payment is 50% at engagement with the balance due only if we successfully secure the property.

This structure means we’re invested in your success - we only receive full payment when you win.
