A second way to sell, not a second agent in the deal.
Not every property fits a list price and a waiting period. Estates, expiring listings, investment assets and unusual properties often sell better when buyers compete on a fixed date.
Dudley Resources has run auctions since 1982. We handle the campaign, the bidders, the platform and the sale day. You stay the agent your seller called first.
What partnering with us looks like
From first call to closing
Four steps. You decide how involved you are in each one.
Introduce it
Tell us about the listing, seller or property you think could use a competitive sale.
Build the plan
Together we set the seller's goals, the marketing plan, the reserve, the terms and your role.
Run the auction
We launch the campaign, reach buyers, run the bidding platform and coordinate showings.
Close and get paid
When the sale closes, you are paid under the commission arrangement agreed up front.
When is an auction worth a conversation?
The right method depends on the property and the seller. These are the situations where we usually hear from agents.
✓The listing is nearing expiration or not drawing the activity it should.
✓The seller wants a defined marketing period and a firm sale date.
✓An estate, inherited home or investment property needs a clear exit.
✓The property is hard to price and broad exposure would let the market decide.
✓An asking-price strategy is not meeting the seller's goals.
Questions agents ask us
Will I lose my client to Dudley Resources?
No. The program exists to protect your relationship. You remain your client's agent while our team provides the auction expertise.
Do I have to run the auction or attend every showing?
No. We can handle the operational details, or work alongside you if you want a more active role.
Does the seller have to accept any bid?
No. Realtor Connect auctions use a seller-approved reserve, and the sale is subject to the agreed terms.
What does it cost the seller?
Every cost, fee and the full compensation structure is laid out in the auction agreement before the seller commits to anything.
Can buyers use financing?
On many of our real estate auctions, yes. Terms are set per property, and we will walk you and your seller through them before launch.
Where do you work?
Richmond, Virginia and Central Indiana, with properties across both states. Reach out about a specific property.
Have a listing that needs a new approach?
A simple referral or a full partnership. Either way, let's look at the property together.
