Yes. We use a sophisticated database of government auctions and foreclosures, and update it ALL THE TIME (including additions) in order for you to have in hand current information, and as many government auction listings as possible. We have a research team dedicated to this task, and they work very hard daily.
Yes. Most certainly. In fact, the cars, boat, scooter, watch, ring, and laptops pictured on our home page were not too long ago up for auction at various auctions by the Government. Moreover, due to space limitations, we obviously could not include pictures of representations of every type of property that is available at government auctions. We included real estate, automobiles, boats, recreation vehicles, motorcycles, jewelry and watches, and electronics as these are generally the most sought after and available items at government auctions. However, many many more items and properties are available at government auctions, only some of which are furniture, art, businesses, farm equipment, fixtures, undeveloped land, retail stores, industrial properties, golf courses, aircraft, hardware, laboratory equipment, collectibles, a whole bunch of different types of general merchandise, and even animals and stables. Think of it this way: anything that you ever wanted to buy, you probably can find at government auctions, but at a discount.
No. Well, let us clarify that: It is possible, although highly unlikely. However, other sites will make you believe that this is typical of a government auction. It is not. It happens once in blue moon. You will however be able to find a whole slew of bargains on various items and properties at a huge discount off the normal price. You will also likely run into some unbelievable deals, especially for those government auctions which are less competitive (like for bulk lots.) This is because the federal, state and local governments obtain this property either for free (like when it's seized) or at a large discount (when it's surplus), and really have no profit motive other than to receive whatever amount of money they can get from it. Can you get a car for $100? Yes, but it will not be a brand new Mercedes. That having been said, on many occasions, you can get the bargain of a lifetime.
Well, first of all there is no inside scoop, and we do not offer such nonsense. Those sites that claim that they’ll provide you with the “Secrets” to government auctions are full of it. In our member section, we have an excellent Government Auctions tutorial. Besides that, only really useful information to you is when and where these auctions are held, and what's sold at them. What we do is provide you with a comprehensive database of such auctions which includes those that are coming up at located in your state or territory and online so that you can participate in them. And we also let you search for Government Auction Autos and Items. For good measure, we also throw in more than 100,000 searchable Foreclosure and Pre-Foreclosure listings. However, the best way to making money at government auctions or getting your desired house, car, or other item real cheap is to use your head. If you do that and research the value of what you're buying, you'll get some great deals. And you could probably get these deals on anything you that you ever wanted. But besides doing the initial legwork, there's no secret formula to success at government auctions. Everyone can potentially walk away with a great deal!
