Buyers love the deals: properties are often priced well below market. Sellers like the speed: listings go live fast on the platform without any upfront fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But these prices and speed come with strings. As a buyer, you may have to pay a minimum fee of $2,500 for a home with hidden issues. Whereas, as a seller, you may have to give up a huge chunk of your home&#8217;s value. Plus, there&#8217;s little to no help with pricing or marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"check-minus-content-list\" style=\"background-color: #dff0ff; padding:20px; margin-left:-5px;\">\n\u270d\ufe0f <b>Editor&#8217;s Take: We recommend you opt for cash buyer marketplaces.<\/b> They connect sellers with nationwide investors, increasing your chances of getting multiple cash offers.

If you do your research and know what to expect it&#8217;s hassle free and actually is much easier than dealing with non responsive brokers or fussy sellers. Tips: Don&#8217;t place proxy bids, the site will just bid it up to the reserve, as is disclosed. Don&#8217;t fight the form contracts, yes they are silly one-sided but you are getting a good deal or otherwise move on. Supply all the required info immediately after you win. Yes you have to pay a 2500$ deposit to bid to keep the fakers out of the bidding. Got it back in a day. Do use a buyers broker as you are paying for the agents anyway and Most importantly do opt to use your own title. <\/p><p class=\"review_description\"><\/p><p class=\"source_text\">Source: Smart Customer<\/p><\/div><span class=\"blue_border_tringle\"><\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2705 <strong><em>Professional and responsive agents <\/em><\/strong><br><a   href=\"https:\/\/www.smartcustomer.com\/reviews\/auction.com#439\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Wadah A<\/a>. was very satisfied with the Auction.com representative who helped them out with the bid.

However, complaints point towards the possible risk of deceptive practices and complex bidding process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you are considering selling or buying through Auction.com, it\u2019s important to weigh both the benefits and drawbacks of the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-15\">\u2705 <strong>Pros<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Flexible Sale Terms:<\/strong> As a seller, you get the option to set the sale terms. This gives you more control over the selling process. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Multiple Buying Options:<\/strong> Auction.com has a strong database of over 13,000 properties. So, buyers get a variety of options to choose from. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Responsive Agents: <\/strong>Many positive reviews highlight that Auction.com customer service will offer their help and answer your doubts promptly. For instance, <a   href=\"https:\/\/www.smartcustomer.com\/reviews\/auction.com#407\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Lamika W<\/a>., who had no idea about how to bid, learned a lot about the process through the agent&#8217;s help. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Remote Bidding Option:<\/strong> Buyers can place a remote bid on their desired properties. This makes it possible to skip the hassle of a physical home purchase. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-15\"><strong><strong>\u274c<\/strong><\/strong> <strong>Cons<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Deceptive Auction Practices: <\/strong>Many reviews alleged that Auction.com changes the auction date or relists properties until the reserve price is met. For instance, <a   href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/VVPn4fDVfD3gTerN7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Mike Thaler<\/a> noticed that a few bank owned propeties were listed on the site for nearly two years. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>$2,500+ Fees for Buyers:<\/strong> Buyers have to pay 5% of the winning bid or $2,500, whichever is higher. Although refunds are promised if the sale is cancelled, customers like <a   href=\"#auction-.com\">Sam Stallings<\/a> say the process can be a huge hassle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Complicated Bidding Process:<\/strong> Auction.com has a tedious bidding process. Buyers need to submit multiple documents and proof of funds to bid on any property. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Uncertainty of Sale:<\/strong> Customer reviews point out that there&#8217;s no guarantee a deal will close. Both buyers and sellers can withdraw without penalty. Moreover, Auction.com lacks a system to prevent these last-minute cancellations. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-28\" id=\"auctioncom-process\"><strong>How Does Auction.com Work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To sell or buy a property through Auction.com, here are the steps you will have to follow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-15\" id=\"smartsale-auction.com\"><strong>Sellers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Submit Property Details:<\/strong> On www.auction.com, enter basic information about the house, such as the number of bedrooms, kitchen type, balcony size, and other key features.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Connect With an Agent:<\/strong> Auction.com will connect you with a local agent, who will help you with the sale. However, if you have prior real estate experience, then you can qualify to sell without an agent.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>List Your Property:<\/strong> Next, upload clear property photos and list your property. Following this, your home will be marketed to a network of buyers. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Review and Accept Offers:<\/strong> Once your listing goes live, you can track all offers on your seller dashboard. Take your time to review each one, accept the best deal, and close the sale. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-custom-accordion custom-accordion\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-custom-accordion-item accordion-item\"><button class=\"accordion-header\"><span class=\"accordion-title\">\ud83c\udfe0 What if your property doesn&#8217;t sell on Auction.com?<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"840px\" height=\"450px\" class=\"accordion-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/dtpwvruv8ddnl.cloudfront.net\/images\/flat-fee-mls\/faqArrow.svg\" alt=\"toggle\"\/><\/button><div class=\"accordion-content\">\n<p>Like in most house auctions, if your property doesn\u2019t sell on Auction.com, you can choose to relist it for another cycle, often with revised pricing or improved marketing.

Users can register for up to three properties at a time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Submit a Registration Deposit:<\/strong> Some properties require a registration deposit (which varies from property to property) to place bids. This is typically refundable if you don\u2019t win the auction. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Research the Property Thoroughly:<\/strong> Take time to review the property details, documents, and any disclosures provided. Since many homes are distressed or sold as-is, due diligence is important. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Read the Terms<\/strong>: Each listing has its own terms and requirements. This includes timelines, deposits, buyer premiums, and bidding rules. Go through them at this stage to avoid any surprises at the end. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Prepare Your Finances<\/strong>: If you win, you\u2019ll need to submit proof of funds and pay an earnest money deposit. You need to do all this quickly, often within a business day or even a few hours. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Complete the Post-Auction Steps<\/strong>: Submit your contact information via an online form.

So, make sure to refer to the Auction.com website or contact through Auction.com phone number to get exact insight depending on the type of property you want to buy.<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-28\"><strong>Auction.com<\/strong> <strong>Programs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Auction.com offers several programs designed for different types of buyers and sellers. To sellers, they offer SmartSale. While, buyers get the option of Remote Bid. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-15\"><strong>SmartSale Auction.com<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>SmartSale allows homeowners to sell their homes as-is in two ways. You can either choose to have an auction. Or, you can list your home on the platform and attract direct offers and negotiations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-15\"><strong>Remote Bid Auction.com<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Auction.com&#8217;s Remote Bid program lets buyers participate in select auctions without attending in person. You can place bids from a computer or mobile device and compete in real time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, their website mentions that not all buyers are qualified for Remote Bid. First, you will have to register and qualify for the program. Then, you will have to fund your account to place a bid from anywhere and at any time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-28\" id=\"auctioncom-pricing\"><strong>Auction.com Pricing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Auction.com&#8217;s website, their service is free for both sellers and buyers. However, if you place the winning bid on a property, you have to pay a buyer&#8217;s premium. This is usually 5% of the purchase price or $2,500, whichever is greater. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-custom-accordion custom-accordion\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-custom-accordion-item accordion-item\"><button class=\"accordion-header\"><span class=\"accordion-title\">\ud83d\udcb0 Do buyers need to pay any other fees?<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"840px\" height=\"450px\" class=\"accordion-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/dtpwvruv8ddnl.cloudfront.net\/images\/flat-fee-mls\/faqArrow.svg\" alt=\"toggle\"\/><\/button><div class=\"accordion-content\">\n<p>Buyers don\u2019t owe anything to Auction.com beyond the buyer\u2019s premium.

The bidding system can be a bit confusing, especially if you\u2019re new to foreclosure auctions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, buyers aren\u2019t allowed to tour the property beforehand, which feels a little unfair. Most people would prefer to see a place in person before making such a big decision. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For sellers, Auction.com provides minimal support, focusing on buyer access. Without any market analysis tools, many struggle to accurately price their properties. Consequently, they miss out on potential profits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-28\" id=\"auctioncom-coverage\"><strong>Auction.com Lawsuit<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While researching Auction.com, we came across a past lawsuit that\u2019s worth mentioning. In 2014, the company was accused of using \u201cshill bidding,\u201d where fake bids were allegedly placed to push up the final sale price. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Auction.com denied the allegations, and the case didn\u2019t go too far, but it does make you think. If you&#8217;re bidding on a property, it\u2019s good to be aware that not everything on the platform may be as straightforward as it seems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-28\" id=\"auctioncom-competitors\"><strong>Auction.com Competitors<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We evaluated various real estate companies on metrics such as speed, convenience, and property condition. Our research led us to Clever Offers, Houzeo, and Opendoor as top options based on these features. Here\u2019s how they compare to Auction.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-15\" id=\"auctioncom-vs-clever-offers\"><strong>1. Auction.com vs. Clever Offers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Auction.com can help you sell your property even if it is bank-owned or in need of repairs. However, complaints highlight that many homes listed on their site remain unsold for months, even years in some cases.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clever Offers, on the other hand, promises a quick selling process. As per their website, you may be able to get cash offers and close the deals within as little as 7 to 45 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\t<div style=\"display: block ;\" qa-testing=\"testing\" class=\"home-page-quick-listing-wrapper  content-ql-new-ui \" main-title=\"\u26a1\ufe0f Get fast cash offers near you\" list-title=\"List FSBO on MLS\" list-item-1=\"Save thousands in commissions\" list-item-2=\"100% online platform\" list-item-3=\"5-star customer service\" ql-button=\"\" minimize=\"true\" sidebar=\"\" contact-title=\"\" contact-content=\"\" siteurl_qlb=\"https:\/\/www.houzeo.com\" cash-ql=\"true\"><\/div>\n\t<script>\t\t\n\n\t\tdocument.addEventListener(\"DOMContentLoaded\", function () {\n\t\t\tconst isMobile = window.screen.width <= 768;\n\n\t\t\t\/\/ Global flags to prevent multiple loads\n\t\t\twindow.quickListingCssLoaded = window.quickListingCssLoaded || false;\n\t\t\twindow.quickListingJsLoaded = window.quickListingJsLoaded || false;\n\n\t\t\tconst cssURL = 'https:\/\/www.houzeo.com\/css\/quick-listing-block-v3.css?v=9.8';\n\t\t\tconst jsURL  = 'https:\/\/www.houzeo.com\/js\/quick-listing-block-v3.js?v=9.8';\n\n\t\t\t\/\/ \u2705 Load CSS immediately on mobile only\n\t\t\tif (isMobile && !window.quickListingCssLoaded) {\n\t\t\t\twindow.quickListingCssLoaded = true;\n\t\t\t\tloadCSS(cssURL);\n\t\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t\/\/ \u2705 Define JS loader (and CSS for desktop)\n\t\t\twindow.quickListingJsLoadfn = function () {\n\t\t\t\tif (!window.quickListingJsLoaded) {\n\t\t\t\t\twindow.quickListingJsLoaded = true;\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\/\/ On desktop: load CSS here (lazy), since it wasn't loaded initially\n\t\t\t\t\tif (!isMobile && !window.quickListingCssLoaded) {\n\t\t\t\t\t\twindow.quickListingCssLoaded = true;\n\t\t\t\t\t\tloadCSS(cssURL);\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t\t\tloadScript(jsURL);\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\/\/ Remove listener after load\n\t\t\t\t\tdocument.removeEventListener(isMobile ?
