The portfolio features three residential properties and two parcels of development land.

The residential properties range from having 3 bedrooms with 1 bathroom to a floor plan with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms; all of which are located in Atlanta. Property sizes range from +/-1,000, +/-1,500, to +/-1,540 square feet while the development land in Atlanta and Lilburn are +/-2.2 acres and +/-1.1 acres.

As with all of the online auctions on FRE.com, each property has it’s own unique webpage full of all of the property’s details, photos, auction documents and any other available property documents such as disclosures, plat maps, etc. are posted for interested buyers to do their due diligence. More importantly, all of the bidding happens directly on the auction webpage itself. Minimum bids start as low as $9,000, but the clock is ticking.

LAST CALL for the Online Auction in Peoria, Arizona

Yesterday, April 1st, was the Bid Deadline for the online auction of a luxury home in Peoria, Arizona. However, the property’s seller has invoked LFC’s patented LAST CALL® process in order to extended the Bid Deadline until Monday, April 5th. The auction’s current high bid is now published and every bid hereafter will be displayed in real time. If another bid IS taken before Monday’s deadline, the auction will be extended until Tuesday. These twenty-four hour extensions will continue until no more bids are placed.

I recently explained the LAST CALL® bidding process (which is currently running) in the online auction for commercial property in Orland, California and in that post, I wrote about the LAST CALL® bidding in another one of our commercial real estate auctions in Columbus, Ohio. In short, LAST CALL® was created to prevent people from losing an auction due to someone placing a bid in the final seconds before the deadline. Here is how I explained LAST CALL® in previous posts:

LAST CALL® protects bidders from auction sniping. If you are familiar with other online auctions sites such as eBay, you know that everyone interested in the auction waits until the very last second to place their bid. There is even software that will automatically enter a bid in the last millisecond of the auction, what we call “auction sniping.” LAST CALL® protects bidders by eliminating the possibility of “sniping.” Real estate is a rather large investment to make online and we strive to give all bidders a fair chance at winning. Understanding that real estate is a rather [heavily strategized move] to make online, we made the LAST CALL® extension increment 24 hours to give bidders plenty of time to deliberate.

I invite you to follow this auction closely as bidders compete for the property. You can join in the conversation and stay informed about this online auction by following us on Twitter. If you have any questions pertaining to LAST CALL® or this auction, feel free to leave a comment.

Happy Friday and good luck bidders!

Online Auction for a Luxury Home on the San Clemente Golf Course

The LFC Group of Companies is auctioning a Tuscan-inspired luxury home perched on top of the San Clemente Golf Course overlooking the Pacific Ocean on our residential auction website, FRE.com. The minimum bid of $1.295 million for this extravagant home is a full million dollars less than the previous asking price, attracting some serious buyer interest. With three bedrooms, a versatile fourth room capable of serving as either a bedroom or office, and three and a half bathrooms, this home is expertly designed to deliver true Tuscany ambiance while showcasing the serene views of this unique and highly sought after “SoCal” location.

For those of you unfamiliar with southern Orange County, San Clemente is a quiet beach town well known for its laid back surf culture and 1,296-foot long pier. San Clemente boasts two world-famous surf spots, Trestles and T-Street, that double as popular beach hangouts year round. If land sports are more for you, here’s a little snippet about the San Clemente Municipal Golf Course that describes its sprawling 18 hole course against a ocean backdrop:

The San Clemente Golf Club is a scenic, family friendly Championship 18 hole golf course where Fridays are still weekdays, walkers are still welcome and juniors are always ¬? price. Owned and operated by the City of San Clemente, the course is located approximately one mile from the Pacific Ocean and features ocean views from a number of holes. Named “Best Value in Orange County” in 2008, the rolling hills and relaxed atmosphere of the “Muni” have remained popular with local golfers for over seventy five years.

Traveling to and from San Clemente is easy and convenient, easing the burden of a daily commute. The San Diego Freeway runs parallel to San Clemente, making freeway access a breeze, and there is also an Amtrak train station in town for those looking for a more scenic, relaxing route to travel up and down California’s coast.

The Bid Deadline for this property is April 15th, 2010. If you are looking to capitalize on a spectacular opportunity in this buyer’s market, I encourage you to come visit the online auction at FRE.com for all of the property details and documentation.
