How does an auction company not only survive, but thrive and grow over 20 years in one of the most competitive industries in an international marketplace? By delivering value to all clients, whether they are buying or selling.
It’s like walking a tightrope, requiring skill and balance, to make sure that both parties come away satisfied from an auction. But Lauro Auctioneers have perfected the following steps in securing satisfactory results for a diverse clientele:
For Sellers:
- Lauro Auctioneers respond immediately to requests for information and appraisals. We use our experience and hard data in giving fair market estimates of a lot’s worth. With our various methods of selling–buy-out, consignment, online auction, live auction—we can recommend the best method according to your objectives.
- We are licensed, insured and compliant with all regulations and reporting requirements (no small feat), and keep current with changes to insure there are no legal impediments or issues of trust. We have streamlined the auction process to attain closure far faster than you could by other means.
- Our experience enables us to handle many kinds of lots, including industrial equipment, restaurant equipment, real estate, classic cars, and antiques. But if there is someone better suited to handle your sell-off, we will recommend them to you.
- We use state-of-the-art listing technology to see that your auction lots are publicized to the widest possible audience.
- We see that all merchandise is clean and displayed in the best possible light—and in our air-conditioned auction house–to attract the highest bids.
For Buyers (in addition to several points above):
- We make sure you understand everything about the process, including the buyer’s premium and taxes. We will explain anything you don’t understand to your satisfaction. We will explain what documentation you need, including a Tax Exemption Certificate, if it applies.
- Because lots are sold “as is,” we give you every opportunity to inspect the merchandise and strongly recommend that you bring technicians to test it. If you do not know any in the area, we can recommend technicians to you.
- We see that you have every opportunity to bid on the items you want, including absentee bidding and telephone bidding.
