1 in 3 properties secured before auction day. The best auction strategy is often not attending one.
Most buyers are preparing for the room - the paddle, the nerves, the bidding war. But the deal is often already done before any of that starts. Pre-auction offers work when they're structured right: vendor-tested price, terms that make the seller feel certain, and timing that gives them a reason to close early rather than risk the room.
Save this and send it to someone who thinks auction prep starts on auction day.
