TERMS & CONDITIONS OF SALE

• With a minimum bid of just $139,000, this real estate and any remaining contents will sell to the highest bidder. Bid and buy with confidence.

• Our live auction at the premises begins at noon on Saturday, August 9, 2025. Registration begins at 11 AM.

• This is not a foreclosure.

• Close in cash or financing.

• We strongly encourage bidders to arrange necessary financing in advance of the auction day. Knowing the amount of a mortgage you are approved for determines how much you can pay for any property, no matter how you buy it.

• Real estate and any remaining contents are offered and sold in as-is, where-is condition, with no representation or warranty, and with all faults and benefits. Data provided is deemed reliable but is NOT guaranteed accurate.

• Auction Day Registration: To register, bidders must present photo identification and a bank cashiers check for $13,900. Please make checks payable to LEGACY AUCTION & REALTY.

• * Non-refundable buyer premium of ten percent (10%) of the winning bid will be added to the winning bid to equal the final sale price. This amount is due at the announcement of SOLD! The winning bidder must pay the remaining balance of this auction-day deposit by personal or business check or in cash.

• * The Winner! The successful purchaser will be required to deposit the bank cashier check and, if necessary, increase the total deposit via personal or business check to 10% of the winning bid (hammer price). For example, a winning bid of $195,000 requires an additional auction-day payment of $5,600 ($13,900 + $5,600 = $19,500, equaling 10% of the winning bid).

• Settlement in cash and/or financing by/before Tuesday, September 9, 2025.

• All state, county, township, and local transfer and sales taxes imposed on the sale of this property shall be divided and borne equally between the Buyer and the Seller.

• Possession shall be delivered by deed at the time of settlement. All costs for deed preparation, acknowledgment, recording, title search, title insurance, and usual conveyance expenses and survey costs (if required), except taxes identified previously, shall be paid by the Buyer.

• For bidder FAQs, please see our page Real Estate, For Buyers

• Seller guarantees a free and clear title.

• Broker Participation: Legacy Auction & Realty offers a Broker/Salesperson commission paid at closing to any licensed real estate brokerage that properly submits a Client Registration form and whose client is the successful purchaser of the subject property. Licensee must register their client 72 hours before the auction and attend the open house and auction events with the client. Brokers acting as principals are excluded from broker participation. Please contact us for details.
