LIVE & ONLINE REAL ESTATE AUCTION – TWO PROPERTIES
Join us live at the property or bid online for this real estate auction conducted jointly by Huber Auction Group, LLC and Christy’s of Indiana, Inc.
This will be a Live & Online Auction, giving bidders the opportunity to participate in person at the property or online from anywhere.
TWO PROPERTIES – BID INDIVIDUALLY OR TOGETHER
The auction will begin by offering each property individually. After establishing individual bids, the two properties will then be offered together as one combination, allowing bidders the opportunity to purchase both properties with a single bid.
Once the initial round of bidding is complete, the auctioneers will compare the individual bids with the combination bid to determine where the highest total bid has been achieved.
Bidding may then be reopened on the individual properties and/or the combination. The auction will continue until the auctioneers determine that the highest bidding combination has been achieved.
The highest total bidding combination will be presented to the Seller for approval.
Because this is a live auction process, the Seller may accept the high bid while bidding is taking place, or the auctioneers may call one or more brief recesses to consult with the Seller before continuing or concluding the auction.
Whether you are interested in one property or both, you have the opportunity to bid!
