View AuctionReal estate auctions are used to accelerate the process of buying and selling real estate. With intense marketing focus on a specific property, real estate auctions provide a “date certain sale “ for sellers and provide potential buyers a transparent process where they control the price paid through competitive bidding. The technical process is similar to a conventional real estate transaction, only without contingencies on financing, property inspections, and other issues that can derail a real estate transaction.

An equipment auction, sometimes known as a consignment auction, is a sales event featuring various types of equipment from one or more sellers. Our most popular items include construction machinery, farm and ranch equipment, vehicles, trailers, rv's, boats, and more. The items are auctioned during a live sale, online sale, or both - which is called a simulcast auction. Currently we run an equipment auction every month, alternating between our Bryan and Gonzales, TX auction facilities. We offer multiple online bidding platforms to buyers throughout the country and global market as well as live in-person bidding for the more traditional buyers. All of the marketing efforts combine to result in thousands of bidders competing for your personal property asset.
These auctions are best used for our clients in life transitions and have enough assets to have their very own customized auction. Whether it is real estate, personal and business assets, or both, with our turnkey auction process, we work with a seller from consultation to settlement and closing to develop and implement an auction strategy tailored for their needs. Our team handles it all from initial organization, display, description and photography, lotting and tagging, marketing, previewing, auctioning and customer load and settlement. This type of auction may be a live event, online sale, or both.
