MY AUCTION BOOKS NOW AVAILABLE ON THE INTERNET

G’day team,

An amazing world we live in eh and for me today, it became all the more so with the placement for sale on the internet of my two auctions books.

The first, The Complete Guide to selling Real Estate by Auction has previously only been available by either writing in or faxing an order form.

We have had a lot of overseas interest, especially from the USA, and by making it now orderable through the Internet, hopefully that will ease any confusion that has been there between the Australian and overseas currencies.

To purchase,now all you have to do is got to Molpir Publications, look under “Publications”, click on the shopping cart and take it from there and it will be mailed out pronto. Of course you can still order by mail or fax if you so desire.

My new book, The Vendors Guide to selling Real Estate by Auction is available in e-book format and it is likewise available as a download by also going to Molpir Publications, look under “Publications”, click the Shopping Cart button and follow the instructions.

Please note that once your payment has been received, hit the hyperlink saying ”return to merchant” and you will be taken to where you simply download your copy.

This latter book has been written expressly for potential vendors to counter what I see as a whole heap of BS about auctions and it explains in simple language such facets of auctions as:-

• 10 benefits of the auction process

• do you know what selling by auction is?

• Do you know how the auction process actually works?

• Selecting your agent

• Selling your property- some handy tips

• Marketing your property – advertising, importance of Open Houses

• Difference between “on site” and “in rooms” auctions

• The vendor bid

• The reserve price

• Stage three marketing

• The auctioneer and their role

It will be widely promoted and my hope is that it will lead to not only better auction practice from the industry but also a whole big part of the general public knowing at last just what a real benefit the auction system can be for them.

Any comments on either book are always welcomed

Carpe diem
