With these sales, both the buyers and the sellers should be pleased. The Buyer(s) should be able to obtain these properties at a very reasonable price. The Sellers will be able to alleviate their tremendous burden of carrying costs.
What is an absolute auction property?
Properties offered at Absolute Auction will be sold to the highest bidder, regardless of price, with no minimums and no reserves.
