put forth by the Concierge team. To have this much excitement
and competition around a property at once is a seller’s and
broker’s dream. Everyone at Concierge is first-class, and I
appreciate their partnership to make this auction a success.”
Wayne Pridgen, Hilton & Hyland
ABOUT THE PROPERTY > ABOUT THE PROPERTY >
Q: WHY DO HIGH-END PROPERTY SELLERS, AGENTS AND BUYERS CHOOSE AUCTION? A: Most of the world’s finest assets are sold through
auction — art, jewelry, classic cars, etc. Why not homes?
With nearly $1 billion in sales of luxury properties, we’ve
answered the “why”. The process works. The main pro
of our auction platform on the sell side is that it enables
the seller and agent to name the timing and terms of
the sale. We execute a targeted marketing, PR and sales
campaign, activate qualified bidders, and generate a
transaction within 90 days — and the agents still earn
their commission. For buyers, we offer curated inventory
of the world’s best properties from realistic sellers, and
they assure that they are paying a fair price — only one
bid above the next highest bidder.
Q: HOW DO I KNOW IF AUCTION IS RIGHT FOR ME OR MY CLIENT? A: Auctions are ideal for selling one-of-a-kind, incomparable
properties. Every market has a threshold above which
homes are more difficult to monetize, and the typical tools
of price reductions and prolonged advertising and PR
exposure can hurt more than help the outcome of sale.
Especially when it comes to $5 million, $10 million and
$20-plus million homes, price often has no bearing on
interest level, and price reductions are ineffective.
Q: HOW DOES AUCTION BENEFIT ME?A: We are a win-win-win solution. Our buyers gain first access
to our curated selection of the finest properties available from
across the globe. They name the price via a straightforward
and transparent bidding process, with a smooth, simple
transaction. Our sellers know they have an accelerated
sales solution that gives them global exposure, access to an
industry-leading database and market value on their timeline.
And, our agent partners gain award-winning marketing and
on-site sales support with protected commissions.
Q: ARE AUCTIONS ONLY FOR DISTRESSED PROPERTIES — OR, FOR THE WORLD’S BEST PROPERTIES?A: Concierge Auctions reveals value for the world’s best
properties, hands down (or should we say paddles up?).
Our typical seller is well capitalized and not in a distressed
situation. Rather, they are choosing auction to help
accomplish their goals within their timeframe. We are
solely focused on high-end properties — typically in the
range of $2 million to $40 million — and only accept one
of every 20 submitted for consideration.
Q: ARE AGENTS PROTECTED?A: Yes. We have never conducted an auction without a listing
agent involved and a commission offered to a buyer’s agent.
The results are simply better through our collaboration with
real estate professionals.
Q: WHY SHOULD I CHOOSE TO AUCTION INSTEAD OF SELL TRADITIONALLY? A: The question is not whether to auction instead of selling
traditionally, as we see ourselves as an added tool rather
than an alternative, and partner with a listing broker on
every sale. However, we do know from experience that
the traditional brokerage model has limitations, especially
in the ultra-luxury realm. In the rarified air where the buyer
pool is limited, properties simply aren’t very liquid, even in
healthy market conditions.
AUCTION PROCESS
Q: WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT AUCTION FORMATS YOU USE? • Without Reserve — The property will sell to the highest
bidder on auction day. There is no minimum bid that
must be exceeded to purchase the property.
• Reserve — The property will sell at or above a pre-
determined price threshold on auction day.
Q: HOW DOES THE AUCTION PROCESS WORK? A: Typically, our properties are marketed for four weeks
prior to the auction date. We deploy a dedicated, on-
site project sales manager to work alongside the listing
agent, educate potential bidders about the auction,
and facilitate registrations. The properties are typically
available every day during this timeframe for potential
bidders to preview and conduct inspections. Diligence is
encouraged, as all sales are “as-is”, without contingencies.
The Terms and Conditions of Sale, Purchase Contract,
and available property documents can be downloaded
from each property page on ConciergeAuctions.com.
Q: WHAT DOES IT COST? A: Our sellers pay an up-front Engagement Fee, which is
refunded upon closing. Buyers pay a buyer’s premium on top
of their bid. See the individual Terms and Conditions of each
auction for more detail.
Q: DO YOU ACCEPT PRE-AUCTION OFFERS? A: It is not uncommon to receive pre-auction offers, and
all offers are presented for consideration.
Q: WHERE DOES THE AUCTION TAKE PLACE? A: Our auctions are conducted in one of three ways:
• On-Site — The “live” auction will be conducted at
the property or a nearby venue. Bidders are able
to participate via proxy or by phone. Typically, the
auction starts with a cocktail hour, followed by the
property auction.
• Portfolio Sale — The property will be auctioned “live”,
alongside other properties, in a similar execution to
that of an On-Site auction.
• Mobile/App — Our Instant Gavel mobile bidding app
allows buyers to participate in our auctions real-
time from anywhere in the world. Bidders are able to
watch bids live, and/or in conjunction with a phone
or proxy representative. Bidding may take place solely
on the Instant Gavel app, or in conjunction with an
On-Site or Portfolio Sale.
Q: I AM READY TO SELL MY PROPERTY AT AUCTION. WHAT NOW? A: Our seller vetting process is something we take very
seriously. We typically accept one in every 20 properties
that come our way, so our buyers know they are bidding
on one of the best opportunities available from across
the globe. But first, let’s start with a conversation. Call
us at 212.202.2940 to connect with one of our regional
sales managers and move forward in the process.
Q: I’M READY TO REGISTER TO BID. WHAT NOW? A: You may register to bid either directly on our online
marketplace at ConciergeAuctions.com. Visit the
property profile page, and select the “Register to Bid”
button. Or, call us at 212.202.2940 for personal service.
Our registration process has three steps:
1. Complete and submit the Terms & Conditions of Sale.
2. Wire your Bidder Deposit, typically $100,000,
which is credited towards your purchase if you are the
winning bidder, or is returned the following business
day if you are not.
3. Provide a letter of reference from your bank or
financial institution (sample included with the Terms
& Conditions).
