Inspection of Property Dempsey's professionals are always available via toll-free telephone for consultation, but when it's time to make a decision to auction, our representatives insist on a personal inspection of the property to determine its candidacy for a successful outcome. It is certainly not necessary for the seller to be present at the time of the inspection, but it is helpful. Years of experience and countless auction situations enable our representatives to make a quick and accurate appraisal of the prospective property.

 

Presentation of Sales Proposal After the inspection of the property and an interview with the prospective client, we will provide a detailed, step-by-step sales proposal which will outline the total auction effort: From attracting the crowd to the sale site(s), to conducting the auction itself, and finally to closing the sale and distribution of the proceeds. All sales costs will be estimated and fees established.

 

Signs After execution of the listing contract, large, attractive signs are prepared for placing on the property as well as at major intersections leading thereto. They establish the date and time of the sale, appropriate details of the auction and contact information for both our office and web site.

 

Preparation of Property Dempsey's representatives are well schooled in what it takes to make a property(s) most presentable for offering to the public. We make it our responsibility to be sure that not only the property makes the best impression possible, but also that the sale site itself is both attractive and accessible.

 

Preparation of Advertising

 

Dempsey co-ordinates an attractive mix of advertising media to assure maximum coverage of potential prospects for the auction. Timing is crucial! Mailing of sale brochures, classified display newspaper ads, Internet, radio and, in some cases, television advertisements are melded into a comprehensive marketing package designed to alert the maximum number of prospective purchasers to the upcoming sale in a minimum period of time. Our advertising stimulates people to ask and our staff prepares itself to answer!

 

Engineering The division of a large parcel of land into smaller parcels often enables many more prospective purchasers to participate in an auction, thus driving the final sales price ever higher. Our highly skilled staff of surveyors and engineers are licensed throughout the southeast and have specialized in preparing land for sale at auction. Double click to see examples.

 

On Site Inspection Dempsey representatives are available to show property or equipment to prospective purchasers for a stipulated period of time prior to the sale. They are prepared with all sales information, to answer questions by prospects and make them comfortable with the process. Pick-up trucks, boats and 4-wheel drive vehicles are made available when necessary. You Are An Important Part Of The Team An auction is a fast-paced, exciting and creative tool to stimulate people into action. An incredible amount of work has to be compressed into a relatively short period of time by a seasoned team of professionals that know what they are doing. To be most effective, Dempsey's clients should consider themselves a very integral part of the team because the seller's role in an auction is crucial. Dempsey guides its clients through the entire auction process—step by step—so that the seller's role is precisely defined, and maximum results are achieved through their joint efforts.     It's Auction Time   The relatively short period of time we have been working toward is here! All our efforts have been directed to a compact event during which a high level of excitement is generated. The opportunity to achieve a bargain has stimulated the buyers to attend this sale, and once there, ownership is only several bids away. Our job is to create a competitive environment which drives the bidding ever higher.   Enthusiasm Creates Excitement The rhythmic chant of the auctioneer along with the excitement generated by Dempsey's representatives serve to create this environment — that magic moment when that special property can be had by the wink of an eye, the raising of a hand, or the shouting of a bid. "Once, Twice, going and gone!" Throughout the course of the sale, Dempsey has arranged for the crowd's comfort in every way possible. Music, food, heated tents and portable toilet facilities all lend to our most important goal—the comfort of our buyers and their willingness to give all they came to give.   On the Spot Sales Dempsey's representatives are well schooled in what it takes to make a property(s) most presentable for offering to the public. We make it our responsibility to be sure that not only the property makes the best impression possible, but also that the sale site itself is both attractive and accessible. Wrap It Up!
