Bidding at auction can be one of the most nerve-racking experiences that you will have to do in the search for your dream home or investment property.
The complexity of agent versus buyer in a very tense and even somewhat surreal situation, can give any human heart palpitations.
I will attempt to calm down some of that anxiety with a few auction tips today that could very well help you to secure your future property.
The first tip is set a limit and be prepared to stick to it. Asking you not to get emotionally involved is a big task, and for the most of us, when we really want something we are not able to detach ourselves.
When placing your bids make sure that you express them with authority.
The reason for this is so that your competition does not know when you are getting to your limit. If you are looking hesitant and showing that you are nearly to your limit, someone might very well decide to go slightly over theirs to knock you out.
Of course, I will always recommend you engage a professional to bid on your behalf, and with our auction bidding service costing from $500.00 it is well worth engaging us.
Professional buyer's agents are trained to perform under stressful auction conditions and in most cases can save you not only a lot of anxiety, but also a lot of money.
