Always on the lookout for opportunity, I spotted a beautiful home coming to the auction block on July 27, 2010. Grand Estates is selling this home at an ” Absolute Auction” with “No Minimum or Reserve – Regardless of Price”; that is, free and clear of all liens. Basically, you can name your own price to get this home. If you think you are interested in bidding on this home, below are a few things you need to know/do.
- Schedule an appointment to look at the home during the preview period which starts July 23rd.
- Review the extensive Property Purchase Package™ (PPP™) booklet that has been prepared to assist the buyers in evaluating and bidding on this property. The PPP™ is available for $75.
- Register for the auction. To register to bid, one must submit a $50k certified check made payable to the bidder or personal check along with bank letter of guarantee.
- 10% down payment will be due immediately after being declared the buyer. (The registration fee is applied against the ten percent down payment)
- The balance is due in cash at closing within 30 days
- A “Buyer’s Premium” is added to your bid. How much? 7.5% will be added to the winning bid price. So basically, in this case, the BUYER and not the seller is paying the real estate commission, marketing costs, etc. in this transaction. The auction house is kind enough to offer a cooperating commission of 3%. Of course, if you work with us on the purchase we would rebate you over $25K from our commission!

The most expensive listing on the MLS in the town of Riverside is a $1.35mm – 13 room home with 5 bedrooms and 4.5 baths. The most expensive sale in Riverside is 1.725mm in September of 2006 and that home has 11 rooms with 5 bedrooms and 4.5 baths.
It will be interesting to see how much this home fetches. My guess is that someone will be happy to snap it up at $1.5mm. Before jumping in to purchase, be aware that the current tax bill is $56k per year.
I meant to go today but had to miss it.
Anyone attend and watch the proceeding?
How much did it go for? I think Gary’s number of $1.5m might be a bit light, i’d have guess $2m.
Anyone attend?
$50k to be in the room put me off since I was not going to be the buyer.
I thought it would go for $2m
Did anyone make it to the auction?
They wanted a $50k deposit and no casual observers.
Am curious as to how many showed and what it went for.
Hey there – we didnt make the auction – but will get some follow up information. It’s Sari’s number of $1.5 thats a bit light. 🙂
