There are no warranties or guarantees of any kind as to the condition, functionality or lawful uses of the asset(s) being sold.  It is the responsibility of any potential bidder to do their own due diligence on all assets they intend to bid on.  Any measurements furnished by the auctioneer such as lot size, acreage and square footage are for information only and should be verified by the potential bidder prior to bidding.  Sale of property is not contingent on financing, inspections or any other contingencies of sale.  On residences built before 1978, the purchaser waives the right for a 10 calendar-day opportunity to conduct a risk assessment for the presence of lead-based paint hazards.

 

Financing   Sale of property is not contingent on financing.  Prospective bidders are encouraged to make their own arrangements for financing if required prior to bidding on the property.  Financing needs must be secured and in place by the prospective bidder so that closing takes place within the required 60 days after the auction.  Contact the auctioneer for information if needed on mortgage lenders familiar with the purchase of real estate at auction.
