About Auction - How To Bid

On-Site Auction Bids are called live and on-site as prospective buyers compete for the property.

Online Auction Online auctions bring the global marketplace to your property. Bids can be received during the published auction period, generally 14 to 21 days.

Live Online Auction Bidders compete globally in real time either in live online only, or live online in conjunction with a live on-site auction.

Studio Auction Auction bidding is conducted at an offsite location due to convenience and/or accessibility concerns; generally in a ballroom style setting.

Sealed-Bid Auctions Offers are submitted through pre-approved/irrevocable contract. Each buyer may only submit one sealed bid offer. Once the bidding period is closed, all bids are reviewed and the highest bidder is announced.

Proxy Bids or Absentee Bids A procedure which allows potential buyers to participate in the bidding process without being present. Pre-registration required. To find out more about this process please contact Daniel Orr at 918.292.9370.
