Just a few words to tell you what a nice time we had at your auction today.  We were so very impressed with the professionalism and friendliness.  We look forward to hearing about another outstanding opportunity to buy a Concierge Auctions home from your fine company at an incomparable price.  We will follow your website and tell our friends about our very positive experience today.  We had a great time today, and I have told Anne several times... we should have been the final bidder on that home!"

I had the pleasure of working with Concierge Auctions on the sale of a premier ranch in Teton Valley. The property had been listed for a number of years, and our prior marketing efforts, although plentiful and widespread, had not generated the right buyer. In three weeks the auction opportunity identified over 60 prospects, set a record price for the area, and accomplished our client’s goals. It was a successful outcome for all parties involved.”   Richard Lewis - Jackson Hole Sotheby’s International Realty®

We were very pleased with the professionalism of the Concierge Auctions team.  Through their process we were able to identify a qualified buyer who is excited to become a resident of our fine community."
Lisa Richards - President, Isleworth Realty, a Christie's Great Estates affiliate

I was impressed with the aggressive national marketing campaign that resulted in multiple offers. The current challenging real estate market requires creativity to deliver results. The auction format created demand that was otherwise lacking. All details were professionally handled and everyone was well organized…Although I was not able to attend the auction, Warren our president informed me that it was a first class event with well over 1,000 attendees. We were able to liquidate two luxury condominium-hotels with impressive results. One unit sold pre-auction and closed within two weeks.”
Ivan Mariduena - Jennings Realty, Evanston, Illinois

After learning about the benefits of the auction process from a bottom line, company dollar perspective, it began to make sense. We considered the auction for all of the developments in our portfolio, but ultimately determined that we would retail out of a condominium project that we had been selling for nearly 5 years. The skill level of the agents, professionalism, and leadership was very impressive. They set a deadline for buyers to act and accelerated the sales timeline, saving us time and money. The team was able to sell all 3 condo units in one auction and closed them in 30 days.”
Steve Kempton - Taylor Morrison, President of Southwest Florida Division

The auction process presented an opportunity for me to expose my property to an expanded base of qualified buyers, and then forced them to compete for the right to eventually own this home. The property was shown more times in the weeks leading up to the event than it had been shown in the previous year. The increased activity and accelerated marketing resulted in a record price for the area on auction day… Had I chosen not to participate I would likely still be faced with the burden of carrying a multi-million dollar property. Thankfully, the auction assured me that my home would sell on that day and on a non-contingent basis. It freed up capital that I was able to reallocate toward other investments that are now earning me money… I am extremely satisfied with the result and will most certainly employ the auction method again in the future.”

I just wanted to let you know that while an auction is not the answer to everyone’s real estate situation, it certainly was to ours. Having gone through the process personally will enable Gary and I to speak as educated as one can get on the use of it as a tool. While we were not at the end of our financial rope, we did not have endless resources to wait out the market. We know that we would not have sold both houses in such a short time and for cash without contingencies. While the end result was not lucrative as we had hoped it would be, we are very grateful that we will not become a statistic like so many other real estate investors. Thank you so very much!”
