Unlocking Success with the Bid Time Program: A Smarter Way to Sell Homes and Land

 


Redefining the Selling Experience

Selling your home or land in today's evolving real estate market can feel overwhelming. While the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) remains a popular option, it may not be the best fit for every property—especially if yours is unique, needs updates, or doesn’t align with traditional “comps.”

That’s where the Bid Time Program comes in.

Bid Time offers a fresh, hassle-free approach to selling, combining the marketing power of traditional real estate with the speed and transparency of online auctions. Say goodbye to old-school on-site auctions, and hello to a modern, results-driven bidding platform—now available in the Triad and beyond.


How the Bid Time Program Works

The Bid Time Program operates in three clearly defined phases:

1. Preauction Marketing

Your property is listed across high-traffic platforms—including the MLS, national auction sites like HiBid.com, and our own proprietary networks.

We drive visibility through eye-catching signage, direct mail, email blasts, and social media campaigns. This marketing window typically lasts 1–2 weeks and may result in serious buyers submitting a “Buy It Now” sealed bid offer before the auction begins.

2. Auction Phase

The auction opens at 6:00 PM on the day of the scheduled property preview and runs for one to two weeks—depending on your custom marketing plan.

All bidders are preapproved and must show proof of funds before placing a bid. Once the auction ends, the winning bidder signs the purchase agreement within 24 hours and sends their deposit. Closings usually occur within 30 days—sometimes even faster.

3. Post-Auction Flexibility

If the final bid doesn’t meet the seller’s reserve price, we work with qualified bidders to negotiate a post-auction deal.

If no agreement is reached, we seamlessly transition your property into a traditional MLS listing—no time lost, and no momentum wasted.


Why Sellers Choose the Bid Time Program

The Bid Time Program is more than just an auction—it’s a complete marketing and selling strategy tailored for speed, simplicity, and seller control.

Here are the top 10 reasons sellers love it:

1. True Market Value

Let the market speak. Competitive bidding ensures your property is priced by real-time demand—often resulting in a higher sale price.

2. No Commission Paid by Seller

You keep more of your equity. The buyer pays the fees, not you.

3. Fast and Efficient

No endless showings. Scheduled previews and prequalified buyers make the process streamlined and stress-free.

4. Sold As-Is

Forget costly repairs or buyer demands. The property is sold under your terms, without contingencies or inspections.

5. No Price Haggling

Say goodbye to lowball offers and drawn-out negotiations. The auction sets the price transparently.

6. Broader Buyer Reach

Bid Time listings are marketed locally, nationally, and globally. We promote your home or land across MLS and top-tier auction platforms.

7. Exclusive Representation

Our agents work for you—not both sides. That means no dual agency and no divided loyalty.

8. You Keep Control

If the highest bid doesn’t meet your reserve, you’re not obligated to sell. You decide what’s acceptable.

9. Expert-Led Process

Our team includes licensed auctioneers and real estate professionals with decades of experience—and a proven track record.

10. Personal Property Can Be Sold Too

From tools and vehicles to furniture and farm equipment, we can include personal items in your sale for added convenience.


Embrace the Future of Real Estate

The Bid Time Program is designed for today’s sellers—those who want flexibility, speed, and results without the headache of traditional methods.

Whether you’re selling a home, land, estate, or downsizing and need to include personal property, Bid Time offers a smarter path to the closing table. Backed by the strength of United Country Real Estate, we’re here to help you make your next move with confidence.
