Government Auction Web Sites

Government auction web sites auction off literally thousands of homes, trailers, cars, trucks, property, tax sales, and seized & surplus merchandise. These auctions offer incredible opportunities to purchase up to 90% off market prices. Some of the auctions require bidding in-person, while some are conducted online. All of them require you to register, either with the particular agency, or for the specific auction. 

Tax lien and tax deed properties sales are also great investments. Tax liens certificates are virtually risk free investments and tax deeds are another type of foreclosure found in the listings of the sites below.

What's important here? The most important criteria in selecting one of these sites are 1) Legitimacy; are the sites providing these links legitimate? 2) Listings; do they have plenty of listings? and 3) Contact Information; do these sites give you the information you need to register at the auction, contact the seller, etc. Our top recommendation in this category is Government Auctions.

Reviewed: Government Auctions      Rating: 10 of 10

bank foreclosures and preforeclosures This no-nonsense, state-of-the-art site is updated frequently and is the best we have ever seen. With the most up-to-date government and police auctions, and tax sales, the largest auction database available and excellent customer service you just can't go wrong with Government Auctions.

Legitimacy - Just looking at their home page we see they've been featured on CNBC, CBS News, Barrons, and others. There was even a video posted of their CNBC feature. We watched the video - it was NOT a commercial. The company CEO was interviewed on a business show as an expert on buying real estate at auction.

Listings - More listings = good; fewer listings = bad. We counted over 2000 agencies and more than 150,000 foreclosure listings, plus FEMA, GSA, and many federal government land sales. Afterall, you're trying to make or save money, you want the largest number of choices. These guys have it.

Pre-foreclosures - A hidden gem; many pre-foreclosure home listings! This is where you can really do well buying houses, before the foreclosures are listed by every real estate agent on the planet.

Contact info - Too many of the auction sites don't provide contact info; again, these guys get it right. Almost every listing has direct contact info: name address, phone number, etc.

Bonus - When we last reviewed the site, they were offering a hotel voucher worth more $300. We grabbed ours and used it. This alone paid for our membership many times over. (Guess which one of us got to use it? One of the benefits of heading the team...!)

Price: $39 Annual Membership. Click here for a Government Auctions 50% discount (regularly $78, advanced real time data upgrade coming with new monthly payment plan. Join now for a full 1 year access and avoid the monthly fee)

Government Auctions did not engage in any of the shady or questionable practices we've seen on many of the sites. No automatic re-billing, and no "hidden" charges.

Reviewed: Auctions Pass       Rating: 9 of 10

Auctions Pass Auctions Pass is one of the very few sites that also scored high in all areas. It is extrememly well designed, the content well organized and navigation very intuitive. The database offers literally thousands of auctions on behalf of local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies.The only reason they did not get a full 10 rating is that they didn't have all the extra "value-add" information that made Government Auctions such a great site - otherwise we are very comfortable with the recommendation

Legitimacy - AuctionsPass is one of the few other sites that has been around a long time. The site provides all they say it does. Listings - Though not quite as many as Government Auctions, we counted many thousands of listings in all the important areas.

Vehicles - This was an area AuctionsPass did very well, with listings searchable by type of vehicle and location.

Contact info - Good contact info on most listings

Bonus - Auctions Pass is giving away a very well-written ebook that describes the bidding secrets to get the best items at the best price. We found it to be very informative, especially if you are new to buying at government auctions

Price: $39.50 Lifetime Membership. Click here for a Auctions Pass 43% discount (regularly $69.50)

Auctions Pass also did not engage in any of the shady or questionable practices we've seen on many of the sites. No automatic re-billing, and no "hidden" charges.
