The Auction Process
David Cosby Auctions offers a dynamic, around-the-clock online platform where properties are continuously available for listing and bidding, without waiting for scheduled auction dates. Buyers can conveniently explore property listings, access necessary legal documents, and submit bids from their homes, following a straightforward registration process and Anti-Money Laundering verification.
The purchase commitment is finalised when the auction timer switches to “SOLD.” Our marketing strategy harnesses David Cosby’s national network, prominent property portals like Rightmove and OnTheMarket, and our active buyer database. Additionally, we leverage social media channels and collaborate with Bamboo Auctions to maximise exposure and engagement.
