just an FYI on the term "absolute" in auction terms that does not mean it has to be sold! it does mean though it will be in the auction. it' s decieving i know. dad's an auctioneer.;-)
Yes, those auction companies like to get creative with their word choices, like "ordered sold," or, "now's the time to buy. You'll double your money in the spring."
It's not like this statement hasn't been uttered in the Panhandle before :roll:
In this RE market, the best way to double your money is to fold it over and stick it back in your pocket. (With all due respect to Will Rogers)

Usually, there is the word, IF, included in those forward looking statements, and there are usually much fewer witnesses, and no cameras running, recording the statements being made.
Hey, don't they need my permission to advertise for commercial purposes, using a photograph of me?
What happened to their, "Sold in 1 Hour" campaign? Now, it's four to six weeks. ???
For Sale Signs, Open Houses and Auctions are SOOOO yesterday.....
"Jeni Barton needs to sell her Gilbert four-bedroom quickly, so she busted out the iron-ons and made T-shirts for her kids that say, "Buy my house," on the front and trumpet the home's Web site, 3441evernon.com, on the back. Barton had magnets crafted for her car, complete with photos. She even rented a bounce house for the backyard and hired a baby-sitter to oversee the kids while parents perused her pad during an open house. And she made treats.
There's a job waiting in Denver, a slew of new homes competing for buyers across the street, and the Christmas crush is freaking her out. Barton's efforts are a way to calm the panic.
"I'm hoping to speed it up a little. I'm virtually exhausted from keeping (the house) perfect 24/7 and not having anyone come and look at it," says Barton, 29. "I've been trying to figure out what I can do so I didn't feel so helpless, so I felt like I was doing something."
All that and still there's nothing doing at chez Barton. She's lucky to have one person come to an open house. When people see her daughters and their T-shirts, "they just kinda laugh," Barton says. :roll:
