An Auctioneer's Guide to a Successful Real Estate Auction

This six-hour course is designed to introduce and familiarize auctioneers with real estate auctions. Some of the factors that will be address are:

  • How do I get real estate auctions?
  • Is the seller agreeable, and is he auction friendly?
  • Is the property an auction property?
  • How do I market a real estate auction?
  • What are the benefits for the seller, buyer, and auctioneer?
  • How does a real estate auction work?
  • What is in a real estate auction contract?
  • What type of contract do I need for the buyer?
  • How is a real estate auction settlement handled?

Throughout the course these questions will be discussed along with other information concerning the obligations of the auctioneer both legally and ethically when conduction a real estate auction.

Attendance will be monitored and verified.  No credit will be awarded to attendees who arrive late, leave early, or miss any portion of the course or fail to accomplish the learning objectives of the course.  At the end of the course each attendee, who sucessfully meets all board requirements as stated, will be awarded a certificate of completion for 6-hours continuing education to meet the Virginia Auctioneers Board's requirements.
