We make a lot of friends in this business, coordinating some of the biggest events of our clients' respective lives. We like to get to know each seller as an individual, to understand their goals for their auction and their lives after. It helps us serve them better, by designing custom marketing campaigns to suit the people and the project.


Guided By Integrity, Proven By Results


LukeWhen you run over 300 auctions a year, you learn to stay flexible - and to really listen. We take that same approach with our bidders, walking them through each step, explaining our M3 system, and making sure they understand the property. To us, a good reputation after the sale matters just as much as the sale itself and all the awards in the world can't make up for a record of integrity.
