All information provided is believed to be correct but NO warranty as such is either expressed or implied, including but not limited to the warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. Bidder is solely responsible to determine condition, value or any other determinative factors. The Auctioneer strongly encourages bidders to attend preview/property tours and retain the services of building inspectors or other professionals in order to determine value and condition of the property.

BIDDER REGISTRATION:
By registering and bidding, Bidder acknowledges that they have read and agree to the terms and conditions of this auction. Bidder agrees to sign the contract of sale and other documents related to the transaction, pay the earnest money deposit and close the transaction if their winning bid is accepted.

BIDDING:
Using YOUR knowledge and experience, form your own opinion of the property and bid accordingly. If you are in doubt, DO NOT BID. The property is sold AS-IS; this is an AUCTION and all SALES ARE FINAL. Bids cannot be retracted and are binding contracts between Bidder and Auctioneer/Seller. Bidder is accountable to be informed about property and associated costs before bidding. A maximum bid can be placed on the property in the online bidding interface. A maximum bid is kept confidential. Except for properties noted “Absolute Auction,” all properties in auctions will be sold subject to seller confirmation or will have a pre-established minimum Reserve Price. The starting bid is not the Reserve Price. Except where prohibited by law, Auctioneer may counter bid on behalf of Seller on any property up to the amount of the Reserve Price (and no such bid will result in a sale of the property). If the Reserve Price is not met, Seller is under no obligation to sell the property; however, Seller may accept a bid that is below the Reserve Price in its sole discretion.

BIDDER VERIFICATION & QUALIFICATION:
The identity of all bidders will be verified prior to participation. The Auctioneer may require a proof of funds letter be submitted prior to bidder participation. A credit card is required to register for online bidding. No charges will be made to your card unless you are determined to be the winning bidder and you fail to execute the Contract of Sale and pay the required earnest money deposit. At the discretion of the Auctioneer, a penalty of $1,000.00 will be charged to the credit card provided at registration if you fail to return the signed Contract of Sale and pay the required earnest money deposit within the required time period. Payment of the penalty shall not affect other remedies available to the Seller for such failure.

BROKER COMPENSATION:
Preapproved (No later than 5:00 PM the day before the auction ends) brokers participation will be compensated. Ten percent (10%) of the buyers premium will be paid to a qualified licensed real estate agent whose registered buyer's offer is accepted by the seller and closes on the property. To qualify for a commission, the agent must first register his/her self and client with the Auctioneer at least 24 hours prior to the auction. Brokers only receive commission when they represent a client, not if they themselves are the client. Commissions will be paid only after closing and after the Auctioneer has been paid in full. Agents are not required to attend the closing but must attend the auction with their client and/or visit the property with their client during the marketing period. Agents must have client's permission to register him/her for the auction. Agents may not register people who are not actually their clients. If an agent has not met all of these requirements, no commission will be paid to the cooperating agent, even if the agent's client purchases the property. Under no circumstances whatsoever will any commission be paid if the sale does not close for any reason.
