The MLS in this area does not allow properties that are occupied cannot be shown to be advertised but the agent was required by you to have this listed on the MLS.
Your website did not state it was occupied. And yes I found out for my attorney it is my legal right are my own title company but your company makes it seem like it is not your right and of course they charged extra fees so they've already coursed most buyers into using this company for their title. I'm going to follow through by filing a complaint with the Real Estate Commission in the state and the banking commission for fraudulent action.

We looked at three properties with our realtor that this company auction.com tricked some local realtor into putting on the MLS.
The local realtor told us that the properties were occupied but auction.com lied and said no they're not.
They try to talk you into buying properties where you have to do all the work to try to evict the tenants and just try to get homeowners insurance when you don't have possession of the property.
Then of course they tried to pressure us into using their title company promising free title insurance which was another lie.
As soon as I should this information to our realtor and our attorney they both told me to run.
Do yourself a favor stay away online paper pushers like auction.com these people from California will rip you off

Hi Tim. Thank you for your review, but please allow us to clarify as your comments are not entirely accurate. Auction.com does not hire the listing agents, this is done by the seller. The listings in MLS are required to say that it is with Auction.com.

Usually the properties on Auction.com are listed as ‘occupied’ on the website. Was this the case in the property you bid on? Would you mind sharing the property address so I can look into this for you? Per our terms and conditions, “All offers should be based solely on Participant’s independent due diligence and any information contained in the Purchase Documents.”

In response to being forced to use our title company, you do have the option to use your own title company, as this is your legal right. However, there is an additional cost to use your own title company.

Please let us know if you have additional questions.
