2. There is a 10% buyer’s premium. 10% or $2500, whichever is greater, will be added to your winning bid to arrive at the contract price. KEEP THIS IN MIND WHILE YOU’RE BIDDING!
EXAMPLE: High bid of $100,000 x 10% = $10,000.
Contract price would be $100,000 + $10,000= $110,000.

5. The balance of the purchase price is due at closing within 30 days. Each purchaser is responsible for obtaining his/her own financing, if necessary. You MUST be pre-approved for financing.
