Bang Auctions will not have knowledge of the property and is relying on the owner’s representations. All Offers should be based solely on Participant’s independent due diligence and any information contained in the Purchase Documents. Buyers Auctions urges the Buyer to accomplish its due diligences.

A mistaken offer may be withdrawn prior to the end of bidding. However, Bang Auctions may keep records of those who change their bids and may exclude them from bidding.

If Winning Buyer fails to timely sign the Purchase Documents, BANGAUCTIONS or Seller may declare Winning Buyer to be in default of these Terms and reject Winning Buyer’s Offer.

Unless otherwise specified in the Purchase Documents, the Earnest Money Deposit must be received by the escrow or closing agent no later than two business days after Winning Buyer receives wire instructions, time being of the essence.

Unless otherwise specified for a particular Property, the Buyer’s Fee will be added to Winning Buyer’s Offer amount to establish the total purchase price payable by winning buyer.
Short Sale Properties. Some Properties involve a sale in which the proceeds may fall short of the balance of debts secured by the Property (“Short Sale”).

If Short Sale Lender’s Consent is not, the transaction will be cancelled, and the Earnest Money Deposit will be returned to Participant.
5. AUCTION EVENTS
Reserve Price. Except for Properties noted “Absolute Auction” or “Minimum Bid Auction”, all Properties in auction Events have a minimum selling price established by Seller (“Reserve Price”). The starting bid is not the Reserve Price. Except where prohibited by law, BANGAUCTIONS may counter bid on behalf of Seller on any Property up to the amount of the Reserve Price (and no such bid will result in a sale of the Property). Seller may accept a bid that is below the Reserve Price in its sole and absolute discretion. Regardless of the Reserve Price, Seller is under no obligation to sell a Property until the Purchase Documents have been signed by the Seller.
Proxy Bids. Proxy Bids may be placed by bidders for select properties online when available. BANGAUCTIONS’s system will place bids on your behalf up to the Proxy Bid amount during the auction in response to bids from other bidders and counterbids. If any Proxy Bids are equal to each other, the Proxy Bid entered shall be on behalf of the bidder that entered their Proxy Bid first in time. Bidders will be notified via email with the results of the auction as soon as the auction concludes. Proxy Bids are not disclosed to other bidders or the seller of the Property.
Minimum Bid Auction Events. Properties to be auctioned without a Reserve Price but with a minimum bid will be listed in a “Minimum Bid Auction” and will be sold to the highest bidder at or above the minimum bid amount.
Absolute Auction Events. Properties to be auctioned without a Reserve Price or minimum bid will be listed in an “Absolute Auction” and will be sold to the highest bidder.
Extension of Auction Time. In order to allow final bids to be properly input and processed during auction Events, BANGAUCTIONS may extend the time for bidding on any Property in its sole and absolute discretion to allow for additional bids. TECHNICAL ISSUES: In the event there are technical difficulties related to the server, software, internet or any other online auction-related technologies, Bang reserves the right to extend bidding, continue the bidding, or close the bidding. Neither the company providing the software, nor Bang shall be held responsible for a missed bid or the failure of the software to function properly for any reason.
Subject to Confirmation. Seller may designate certain Offers as “Subject To Confirmation” in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case Winning Buyer’s purchase is subject to, and contingent upon, Seller approving the purchase in its sole and absolute discretion within the time period set forth in the Purchase Documents. Winning Buyer will receive a refund of monies deposited if Seller chooses not to approve the purchase.

For certain Events, a registered broker/agent may submit Offers on behalf of a buyer identified to BANGAUCTIONS prior to Offer submission. By submitting an Offer on behalf of a buyer, the broker/agent (i) represents and warrants that the broker/agent has received all buyer authorizations and satisfied all legal requirements necessary to submit Offers on the buyer’s behalf, (ii) acknowledges and agrees that any Offer submitted will be binding upon the broker/agent and the buyer identified at registration to the same extent as if the buyer had submitted the Offer, and (iii) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless BANGAUCTIONS from any breach of these representations or warranties.
