AUCTION TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Please PERSONALLY inspect the properties you are considering bidding on. Nothing replaces looking at a piece of land in person. Everyone has different expectations for the land of their dreams. A property that may be perfect for one person might not be ideal for another. Properties located in the same general area can be substantially different in character from each other (vegetation, terrain, views, road access, access to utilities, etc.). We strongly advise you to take the initiative and look at the property prior to bidding. As a matter of fact, you are required to sign a document stating that you have indeed inspected the property. We also suggest you compare the prices of similar properties in the area to make sure you agree we are offering great deals.
