how much do owners get at the auction?

Posted by Greg - CA on April 24, 2002 at 8:47 PM

Ward,
What can the owner expect back (overbid) from the auction these days? (San Diego). I'm talking about an owner with substantial equity.Say for example there's a $200K house, and he only owes $100K.

From what I've heard it will get bid up to 80% which means the owner would get the extra $60K.

But I've also heard that there is great risk that the bidders will form an alliance so that that the bidding stops at just over the initial bid.

The reason I ask is this: When I negotiate with such an owner, I'd like to be able to tell him what to expect. I'm concerned that if he can actually get 80% of value just by letting it go to sale, he might not want to take my offer for less.

Greg
