As I understand it, auctions are best when good demand and interest is obvious.
One agent is recommending I auction my land because, he belives, it is the best way to determine its worth. How true is that statement, considering the property is in a slow growth area in country NSW?
Early this year the same agent auctioned my grandparents house and the only bid was the opening bid--they ended up losing about $100k from bad publicity after the failing auction, and owing huge auction fees which amounted to nothing.
Why should agents know an auction is bad advice for the vendor?
