hi n dry,
The winning bid was 810k, but it didn't meet the reserve. After negotiations, we came to a better price.
so, both properties up for auction failed to meet or beat their reserve price?

What does it matter? It sounds like they got a sale.
bdc63,
It's definitely worth the plane ticket to come down. I've started buying again over the last few months. There are some deals to be had if you can find the reasonable sellers. Both of the reserves were set at reasonable levels.
You mean this one???Auctions must be the way to go. Yesterday, a plane buzzed the beach at Grayton with a 'propertyfiresale.com' banner in tow

What I don't understand is the criteria that the owner take a loss on a property. It seems to me that someone who bought for $1.2 million in 2005 might qualify as a fire sale if they listed at $1.1, but the guy with a similar house next door couldn't list the house he bought in 2000 for$700,000, even though it would be more of a "fire sale". Is there some advantage to selling property for a loss from the realtor/broker perspective?
