That's Our Commitment to You!

THE GOAL

To have a well attended, lively, and spirited auction with the right kind of buyers that will lead to a profitable experience for you. We seek to create an individual marketing plan for each auction we conduct. We take into consideration the kind of items you are offering at auction, the geographic area(s) we need to target, and the kind of buyers that need to be focused on as well.

THE PROCESS

Pre-auction

  • We meet with you to determine the terms, commissions, auction expenses, date and place of auction and listing of the real and personal property to be offered at auction. We have access to indoor facilities if needed.
  • A personal and thorough inspection of the property will be made to develop and write up the best marketing strategy. We have a broad based knowledge about antiques, collectibles, various kinds of industrial and farm equipment, firearms, livestock tack, real estate, tools and vehicles, to develop the appropriate marketing strategy.
  • Promotional and advertising media packages will be prepared and approved utilizing a variety of media, to include, but not limited to, direct mail, newspaper, radio, print advertisement, Internet, and TV spots, when warranted. We have an extensive data base mailing list divided into target marketing groups such as antiques, equipment, construction, classic cars etc.
  • Auction signs are set up to direct purchasers to the auction site(s) as well as clearly identify individual tracts of real property.
  • OK Auction staff is available to work with sellers and surveyors for the purpose of preparing the property for its best auction potential.

Pre-auction Set Up

  • OK Auction staff is available to either help you set up for your auction or we have an option where OK Auction staff can do the complete set up. Either way, our goal is to prepare your property to make it look as appealing as possible to the potential buyers on auction day.
  • We can provide tents, tables, chairs and showcases(when needed).
  • We have loading and moving equipment available to facilitate your auction.

We also buy estates for those who wish a speedy settlement. Generally we can have personal property settled for within 10 business days. Real estate auctioned and settled for in about 30-45 days.
