Offering your contract at public auction, in my opinion is a great way to gererate interest and to expose the property.As a professional auctioneer - depending on what price you are in for and what you will accept as a net-equity profit - I would suggest a reserve public auction (you'll have more participants if you do an absolute auction).Not all auctioneers are good at marketing real estate - you'll need to interview them - you'll need to know the following:how much advertising money do they want up front to market the property, commission, time frame, how many real estate deals have they done, are they honest, will they do an assignment, are they respected in the community, where will they market your deal, get references, are they authorized to conduct real estate auctions?
