As for Denver County auctions...In Colorado auctions are held by the public trustees of each county.Below is a link to the Denver County public trusteehttp://www.denvergov.org/clerkandrecorder/ClerkandRecorder/Foreclosures/tabid/437349/Default.aspxI have not attended Denver's Foreclosure Sale/Auction, but my experience is that the public trustees required a certified check(or other good funds) at the auction.I would certainly speak to expert before participating as it is a buyer beware (caveat emptor) purchase: -No guarantee that the foreclosing lien is in first position-No rights to inspect-Can be redeemed out by other jr lien holders after sale-Persons may still be living in the property and require eviction or other arrangements-Lessees may have a grace period to leave-All sales are finalI am not an expert and that is just my personal understanding.The aforementioned is personal opinion and none of the content should be considered a binding offer or agreement.

I know one guy that just called the funeral home, trying to get a hold of family, who's taking care of the arrangements, I need to get a hold of them, it's my cousin Louie but I don't have the kids name!

Most of us selling properties right now don't need buyers with special need/arrangements in order to lock in profit or save money on the sale listing.

I understand it'll most certainly need to be tweaked per our specific arrangement, but would love to have a draft to review.

I'm not sure what to look for in a listing agent, or the agreement/arrangement to have.

This is quite normal to sign in order to protect the agent for this one property.Might be other exclusive arrangements out there ...Some other threads where this has been discussed:http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/311/topics/49488-what-is-an-exclusive-contract-w-agent-http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/21/topics/45169-what-is-typical-in-buyer-s-agreements-http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/311/topics/75732-question-about-changing-real-estate-agentshttp://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/311/topics/16661-why-work-with-a-buyer-s-agent-

"Anyone may arrange his affairs so that his taxes shall be as low aspossible; he is not bound to choose that pattern which best pays thetreasury.

It may be smoother having someone there who has more experience, especially when the inspectors walk in.You can get materials or they can, some don't mind getting small stuff forgotten or needed, but the bulk of materials should be listed and who buys, picks up and arranges deleivery at different times is up to you.

Whatever you can arrange.

They arrange the paperwork according to the lender's wish and then send them to underwriting.
