Bidding Procedures & Auction Terms and Conditions
This real estate auction is being conducted through online bidding.
Conditions of Sale: This online only auction is not contingent on or subject to financing, appraisal, survey, or inspections of any kind, as agreed to by bidders at registration prior to bidding. Buyer(s) acknowledges they are buying the real estate "as-is", "where-is", without contingencies.
Registration to Bid Online: Proper and complete online registration is required to bid online. A credit card is required to place a bid on the property. The credit card will be validated before bidding access is granted but is not a recognized form of payment of the earnest money (deposit) or purchase price. By registering, all bidders acknowledge having read and agree to be bound by the Auction Terms and Conditions.
Joe Ollis Real Estate & Auction, LLC reserves the right to remove or cancel the bids and or bidding rights and privileges of any party at any time deemed not to be in the best interest of the seller(s). The identity of bidders will be verified, bidding rights are provisional, and if complete verification is not possible, Joe Ollis Real Estate & Auction, LLC will reject the registration, and bidding activity will be terminated.
Bidding online: Joe Ollis Real Estate & Auction, LLC online auctions are designed to mimic traditional "live" auctions. For this reason, this auction will have a dynamic closing "soft close." PLEASE pay attention to the countdown, clearly posted.
Dynamic Closing "Soft Close": The closing time of the real estate is automatically extended an additional two minutes, any time a bid is placed on the real estate with less than two minutes left on its countdown. This will continue until there are no longer any bids submitted for the real estate. It will stop extending when no bid has been placed in two minutes.
Maximum Bidding: This auction also features MAXIMUM BIDDING. This authorizes the system to only bid the smallest acceptable bid increment on the bidder(s) behalf when they have been outbid and only up to their maximum bid. The benefit of this feature is to provide you, the bidder, with an easier way to bid by not having to login and manually bid each time you have been outbid. Please remember, you can always raise your max bid, but you CANNOT lower it. Be aware of this while bidding. If you have any questions email ollis@ollisauction.com or call 1-800-272-9791.
Live Catalog: this is a special tile-based view that becomes available when the real estate is within 30 minutes of closing. The real estate is "live" meaning that you are receiving real-time updates. The time counts down, new bids & bid amounts get updated, the bidder's status updates (winning/losing), all without any manual refreshing.
Buyer's premium: A buyer's premium of ten percent (10%) of the high bid shall be added to the high bid and included in the total contract price to be paid by the successful bidder(s).
Example:
High bid on the property: $100,000
Add Buyer's Premium: (10% of 100,000) $10,000
Equals Total Contract Price: $110,000
Financing: Sale of the property is not contingent upon the buyer(s) obtaining financing. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that potential bidders ensure in advance that they are able to obtain the necessary financing to close the transaction. If you do not have your finances in order, we ask that you Don't Bid!
Inspection: THIS AUCTION IS NOT CONDITIONAL UPON ANY TYPE OF INSPECTION. If you or any concerned party to the transaction need any type of inspection done, you may do so prior to bidding. Buyer(s) are more than welcome to have an inspection done at the buyer's cost. Buyer(s) will rely on his/her own judgment and findings of an inspection if one is done. NO damage is to be done to the real estate during a professional inspection or personal inspection and the real estate remains in the same condition prior to the inspection.
Contract Signing for Winning Online Bidder: At the conclusion of the auction the Winning Bidder will receive an email or phone call confirming his or her winning bid status. In the email the Winning Bidder will receive a link to sign all documents electronically. The Auctioneer or his representative will contact the Winning Bidder the day of the auction to address any questions concerning the required process. Should the electronic processes described above be unavailable, alternative arrangements will be made. In any event, the contract signing and earnest money deposit payment process must be completed by 4 pm CST on the day following the auction conclusion. A Winning Bidder whose documents and deposit are not received within the required timeframe is subject to paying a liquidated damages amount equal to the earnest money (charged to the credit card used at registration) and will not be allowed to bid in any future Joe Ollis Real Estate & Auction, LLC auction events. Note that property-specific purchase documents are available prior to the auction end date and any professional reviews of such documents should be undertaken PRIOR to bidding.
Earnest Money (Down Payment or Deposit): The Winning Bidder shall be required to pay earnest money in the amount(s) of $4,000.00. A Check (made payable to Joe Ollis Real Estate & Auction, LLC) or cash are acceptable forms of payment. If the method of payment of the earnest money is made by credit card, there will be a 5% fee charged. If you need to wire the earnest money funds you are responsible for the transaction fee charged to us. The entirety of the remaining balance is due at closing. The earnest money will be held in a non-interest-bearing escrow account until settlement. The earnest money is non-refundable. The earnest money becomes part payment of the real estate at closing.
Evidence Of Title: Seller(s) shall furnish at seller's expense an Owner's Policy of Title Insurance in the amount of the total purchase price and shall execute a general warranty deed conveying the real estate to the buyer(s). Meaning, the buyer(s) will receive a free & clear deed and title to the property. The buyer(s) shall pay the title search on themselves, title insurance charges, and usual conveyance expenses.
Closing: The Winning Bidder shall close on or before June 11, 2024. The buyer(s) acknowledges and agrees that time is of the essence.
Closing Costs: The closing fee of the title company shall be split 50/50, between the seller(s) and buyer(s).
