Arizona Home Talk

I attended the REDC auction with homebuying clients on July 13th, 2009.  The day before the auction I let my clients inside each house scheduled to be auctioned with my special REALTOR key.  We saw 8 homes and they decided to bid on 5 and they got 1!

REDC was auctioning off 400+ homes/condos/land
I arrived at the Phoenix Convention Center at 8:30am and didn’t leave until 3:30pm.
They do sell some snacks/food.
I paid $14 for downtown garage parking.
There was about 1,000 people there!
They do not allow photography so don’t tell on me!
You can have a Real Estate Agent (like me) represent you at no cost to you.

BELOW ARE RESULTS. I frantically took notes so you can get an idea of what the properties are actually going for.  If you want details on a certain address let me know and I might have it for you.

Also, keep in mind when the auctionier shouts SOLD! he then says “subject to seller confirmation” - so these prices I’m posting here may not become a reality if the seller/bank does not agree to sell it for the auctioned winning bid price.

If I can be helpful to you don’t hesitate to drop me an email or use the contact form to the right. - Becky Wyatt (480-383-9209)
