“THEY MAKE A HABIT OF NOT DISCLOSING INFORMATION”

11/16/23

I have purchased 2 properties, and have been under contract on 6 properties with Auction.com. The two properties I have closed on had NUMEROUS issues that the seller knew about that were not disclosed. Thankfully, I found out some of the issues on the other properties and refused to close on them. Instead of accepting the fact that they knew about certain issues and did not disclose them and that was the reason we did not close, they blamed it on me and are trying to keep my earnest money. The latest issue with a house we were closing on was undisclosed major water damage, one of the most heinous issues was a house that was deemed as uninhabitable due to being a "meth and fentanyl lab". The seller had to serve the foreclosure documents to the occupant while he was incarcerated, nothing was disclosed. My account is now restricted, and that is ok by me. I refuse to do business with Auction.com any longer due to the repeated noncompliance with disclosures. I suggest that no one do business with them. They are unprofessional and should not be in business due to their lack of moral compass and lack of ethical business practices. If you do move forward with doing business with Auction.com, be VERY careful! Call the city, call the county, call anyone you can in regards to the property you are interested in buying. Photo is of a property I was under contract on that was on a demo list due to squatters and human waste inside the property as well as used needles. The debris in the photo is a mix of human feces and other debris. The subflooring is destroyed due to urine contamination and is soggy because of the urine. The house smells of feces and ammonia so bad that it is recommended not to enter, and if you do to have the proper PPE. They did not disclose anything and had very old nicer photos attached to the auction listing! The seller had disclosed, but Auction.com withheld the information on their auction!

Tip for consumers:
Auction.com withholds pertinent information about properties in order to get a higher value at their auctions. They claim the properties are occupied even when they are not occupied so that they are not subject to allowing potential buyers access to the properties. This is how they stick these properties with buyers/investors and claim they have no knowledge. Every single property that had something majorly wrong that I was under contract with them on was vacant, and they knew it. Some for 6mo

Products used:
Purchased two properties, have been under contract on six. Have not received refund on the properties that we back out on and most likely will not get a refund. They have restricted my account due to not closing on a property that they had not disclosed major water damage and also did not disclose that it was deemed a meth and fentanyl lab and would have to pass EPA approval prior to selling or renting.
