A DeCaro Luxury Real Estate Auction is a win-win proposition for everyone involved.

Benefits to the Seller

Holding onto a property is costly, carrying costs associated with luxury homes are extraordinary. In real estate, holding on usually costs more than letting go. The auction is time definite. When the auction sign goes up, it tells potential buyers that you have chosen how to sell your house and the specific date of sale. All of the interest is focused on one day. Value is realized through DeCaro’s expert marketing and the strength of a skilled and seasoned auctioneer.

• Buyers come prepared to buy• Quick relinquishment reduces long-term carrying costs, including taxes & maintenance• Assurance that property will be sold at true market value• Exposes the property to a large number of pre-qualified prospects• Accelerates the sale• Creates competition among buyers—auction price can exceed the price of a negotiated sale• Requires potential buyers to pre-qualify for financing• The seller knows exactly when the property will sell• Eliminates numerous and unscheduled showings• Takes the seller out of the negotiation process• Ensures an aggressive marketing program that increases interest and visibility

Marketing OutlineThe DeCaro team, in conjunction with our advertising and PR firms, custom tailors an effective broad-reaching marketing campaign.

Our strategic marketing plans are thoroughly designed to be a perfect match to each property and seller’s situation.

In custom designing a proprietary program we are able to closely define the specific needs of the client and at the same time design a cost effective, far-reaching advertising program with maximum exposure and with full transparency and disclosure there are no surprises for the sellers or buyers.

Auction Day

on’t just take our word for it...

“My experience with every single member of the DeCaro Auction team was exemplary, from first meeting to final gavel. Most important to me, there was never a moment that I didn’t know that the DeCaro Team’s top priority was our clients’ best interest. I’ve interviewed the others and my choice is clear, DeCaro.”

Kimberly Swan, President, The Swan Agency Sotheby’s International Realty

“I was hesitant to sell my property at auction and had interviewed other luxury auction companies. I can tell you now that if you plan to sell your property and you are determined by DeCaro to be a candidate, there are no auction companies of this caliber that are more professional, respectful, detail-oriented and honest than Dan DeCaro’s group.

I saw less than 10 interested people in 5 years but saw over 2,100 through my property within 30 days once it went to auction. My property was sold just under my list price with nearly 20 registered bidders. There was so much activity that I refused pre-auction offers and took the gamble. Absolutely impressive, second to none. Why wait?”

Ken Hall, President & Founder (retired), Hall Automotive

“As an owner of a nationwide company, I am very familiar with the auction process as it relates to my business. After seeing what DeCaro unleashed in our market and throughout the U.S. through their marketing efforts and public relations, all I can say is that if you want your property sold look no further. The buzz was extraordinary to say the least.

Experience, integrity, determination and knowledge paid off. I sold my property for full list, cash deal just hours before the auction. They have a passion for what they do and that’s what it takes in today’s volatile high-end market.”

“The Corcoran Group has had the pleasure of working with Daniel DeCaro and his associates on numerous occasions. Both our firm and our clients have always had great experiences, with results that everyone agreed was at or above market value. For sellers seeking certainty and wanting to “move on” while achieving a true market value or more, I highly recommend the best in the luxury real estate business.”

David Gatling, Property Seller

William D. Yahn, Senior Vice President, The Corcoran Group

“I wanted to thank you and your staff for the excellent work you did in regards to the auction of our Porto Venezia project. Despite the challenging market conditions, your team was able to register over 75 bidders and sell all the the units at auction.”

Thomas Houlihan, Special Assets, ING Direct

Last Call

Many homeowners have invested their patience, not to mention their money, to ride the unpredictable waves of the current real estate housing market. But those who have educated themselves and overcome their concerns of the auction process all have one thing in common, they are happy to have successfully culminated the sale of their real estate assets and move forward.

A seller recently shared, “I would still be receiving bottom-feeder offers and carrying the costs of owning a burdensome liability had I not met Mr. DeCaro. He brought qualified buyers right to my door and allowed me to move on with my life. That was a financially rewarding decision and my money is growing again – not sitting in a stagnant asset.”

“Our skill is a large part of what’s missing in the real estate market today,” says Daniel DeCaro. “Where there exists a large inventory, we experience a continued downward pressure on values.” But sellers and real estate agents who turn to DeCaro’s Accelerated Marketing Program find that they can effectively stop that downward housing trend in its tracks.

The key to DeCaro’s success in having sold billions in luxury real estate and commercial properties lies within his strategic marketing program, his unparalleled database of interested buyers, and the respect he commands among his clientele. With his experience spanning over three decades through an ever evolving real estate market, his innovations have resulted in some of the most successful real estate auctions on record.

Daniel DeCaro, the most esteemed name in the Luxury Real Estate Auction Industry, masterfully unites motivated sellers of luxury homes with quality buyers from across the globe. Recognized in his industry as the man who stands for record-breaking sales and win-win transactions, DeCaro is an innovative and highly respected leader. He enjoys long standing relationships with the world’s most capable buyers and sellers and partnerships with premier real estate firms across the country.

A master of successful real estate transactions, DeCaro heard his calling to effectively market the world’s most beautiful properties and to identify their true contingency-free enthusiasts. Especially in times when sellers realize the time value of money, the real estate market welcomes Daniel DeCaro and his trademark opportunities.

DeCaro occupies offices in Maryland and Florida, catering to brokers and sellers across the country and internationally. His listings attract willing-and-able buyers and as an added advantage to the seller, they settle quickly. The ability to create a deadline for a transaction is one of the many benefits of luxury home real estate auctions for sellers. When buyers are introduced to extraordinary properties, opportunities are created for both parties within an arena that feels more like a level playing field for both buyers and sellers.
