Successful in-person/live bidders shall be required to provide the earnest money deposit on the day of the auction immediately following the conclusion of the sale.

REAL ESTATE TERMS:

Owner/Agent

This auction is a cash sale and is not contingent upon financing, appraisal, survey, or inspections of any kind, as agreed to by bidders prior to bidding and as specified in the Contract for Sale of Real Estate. Buyers may obtain financing if they choose; however, the buyer's inability or failure to obtain financing shall not relieve the buyer of any contractual obligations or requirements of the sale.

The earnest money deposit is non-refundable except as otherwise specifically provided by Kentucky law or the Contract for Sale of Real Estate. In the event the purchaser fails to close due to financing denial, lender requirements, changes in financial condition, inability to obtain financing, or any other purchaser-related issue, the purchaser shall be considered in default and the earnest money deposit may be retained pursuant to the terms of the Contract for Sale of Real Estate and applicable Kentucky law.

Contact the auction company to arrange access before bidding. Purchasers choosing to waive this opportunity must do so in writing on the lead-based paint disclosure form before becoming contractually obligated. Waiver of the inspection opportunity does not waive the seller’s required lead-based paint disclosures.

Purchaser shall pay all closing costs associated with the purchaser's side of the transaction, including but not limited to recording fees, lender fees, loan costs, inspections, and financing-related expenses.
