Auctions make sense for farm land!
When it comes to buying land for farming, recreational use (hunting, fishing, camping, homesteading, horseback riding, ATV riding, etc.) the choice is clear – Think Auction!
What is the best way to sell a property of this type?
If the land can be split into multiple parcels, a multi-par auction is most often used. This allows for the property to be sold in different tracts, combinations, and as a whole. Professional auction clerking software is used to record the various bids. This method will generally produce the highest return for the seller.
Another auction method is to sell the assets or land parcels via high bidder’s choice. This pits the bidders against each other, with the ultimate high bidder allowed to pick their choice times their bid amount. This method can also be very successful provided there is interest in multiple properties. Competitive bidding will drive the sales price up.
