Funny, that I notice this today, because on my way to a closing, I saw a Hummer painted with the name of an aution company. First time I had seen that here in town.

Slogan on the car.

"I can sell more houses, faster than any agent, GUARANTEED!"

It's a pretty good hook. Look at all the "Flip this House" programs on TV. People see the guys/gals on TV buying properties at auction...

Would it be wrong to hold an auction on your own listings?

Start the bidding at $150K for my $158K listing???

It could be a great way to get exposure of your listings. Does anyone know the drawbacks?
