- If parties are unwilling to increase their bid to exceed current high bid by at least the minimum bid set by the auctioneer, they will be removed from the call list and out of the bidding.
- This will continue until only one bidder (highest bidder) remains.
- Once highest bid is determined it will be presented to seller for review.
- If bid is accepted the buyer will be required to complete an offer to purchase with a deposit of $25,000.00 with Fraser Auction Services’ lawyer “Roy Johntson TDS in Trust”, within (2) two business days.
- If high bidder fails to complete documents, then the next highest bidder’s high offer will be reviewed by seller for acceptance.
