The auction contract will be in compliance with all rules, statutes and laws, specifically note section 475.25 (1) (q), Florida Statutes, and rule 21V-10.033 Florida Administrative code. There are no contingencies in the purchase of a property sold at auction, for financing, inspections or for any other reason(s), unless specifically stated. 8.

This buyer’s premium shall be added to the bid price to create the total purchase price and will be paid at closing of the title and delivery of the deed. Example: If you bid $100,000, $10,000 will be added to your bid price to create a Total Purchase Price of $110,000. 9. Inspections: The sale by auction is not subject to any inspections and is not contingent upon financing. The property is being sold “As Is”. Buyers are welcome to do an inspection at anytime, before the auction or after the auction, however any inspections will not affect the sale or the terms. Although there is ample time to arrange financing, the sale is not contingent upon financing. It is highly recommended that if the purchase will be financed that the buyer be pre-qualified, well in advance of the auction. As this is an auction sale, time IS of the essence. 10. Non-Compliance: The high bidder will make an initial deposit and then a second deposit within 7 days of the auction for a total of 10% to be held in escrow. The deposit goes towards the purchase price of the property. If the high bidder does not make a second deposit within 7 days, the back up bidder will become the winning bidder and be given 30-45 days to close. The back up bidder may request and receive their initial deposit back after the high bidder makes the second deposit OR the back up bidder also has the option to keep the initial deposit in escrow until closing and in the event that the high bidder fails to close within the time given, the high bidder will forfeit their deposit and the back up bidder will become the high bidder and be given 30-45 days to close. It is agreed by all parties that the escrow deposit may also be held by the Broker / Auctioneer, Neal VanDeRee in a state regulated escrow account. IF the high bidder fails to execute the Purchase Agreement and/or fails to remit the earnest deposit with 24 hours of the Purchase and Sale Agreement being delivered, that participant will be responsible for a Non-Compliance Fee of up to 10% of the offer. This Non-Compliance Fee is a penalty for failing to abide by the Terms and Conditions of sale. The Broker/Auctioneer at their discretion shall charge the credit card on file, retain deposits or use any other means necessary to collect such fees subject to attorney fees and court costs. Any bidder that fails to execute a Purchase and Sale Agreement and/or remit an earnest deposit may also be prohibited from bidding on future sale offerings. In the instance of Non-Compliance by a bidder, the Seller, Broker, Auctioneer reserves the right to immediately offer the property for sale and sell to the back-up bidder, or anyone else. Non-Compliant Purchaser(s) shall be made subject to deficiencies, cost to recover, attorney fees and court costs. 11.
