Types of Auctions:
At Hoffman Auctions, we offer two types of auctions: auctions without reserve, also called “absolute auctions,” and auctions with reserve, also known as “minimum bid auctions.”
In absolute auctions, the personal property or real estate is sold to the highest bidder, regardless of the price. This generates maximum interest and excitement from buyers, resulting in greater participation and usually a higher selling price. We believe absolute auctions ensure that the seller gets the most value for their items because of the reasons previously mentioned.
In minimum bid auctions, the personal property or real estate is sold with a reserve, meaning that the seller has set an acceptable minimum price. While this provides some protection for the seller, it may result in less interest from potential buyers who are hesitant to bid on items with a minimum price or high reserve. The minimum bid amount may be disclosed or undisclosed.
Our team of experienced auctioneers can help you determine which auction method is best for your unique situation. Contact us today to learn more about our auction services and get started on selling your personal property or real estate. With Hoffman Auctions, you can trust in our expertise to save you time and get you the best possible results.
