In the event seller refuses to clean up the property, purchaser shall have the option to close without any claim against seller or purchaser may elect to cancel the contract, in which event the deposit shall be refunded.

As Is, Where Is:
All property is selling “As-Is, Where Is” with all faults. It is the buyer’s responsibility to conduct any and all inspections and perform all acts of due diligence deemed necessary before bidding. Placing a bid will be considered as acceptance of the property in it’s as-is condition.
Bidder Default:
In the event a winning bidder fails to submit the signed Contract for Sale and/or earnest money deposit within 24 hours of the close of the auction, the winning bidder shall be liable in damages for 10% of the Contract Price. This is a fair pre-estimate of the damages incurred by the winning bidder’s failure to consummate the transaction, the loss of revenue from marketing the auction, and the potential damages incurred in the future from the chilling effect such breach may have upon future auction customers and bidders. The actual damages incurred by The Weeks Group for a winning bidder’s failure to submit a signed Contract for Sale and/or earnest money deposit as set forth herein is difficult, if not impossible, to determine for the reasons set forth above, but the sum of the damages set forth herein is a reasonable pre-estimate of the probable loss, and by submitting any bid, the bidder is expressly agreeing to these terms as set forth herein. Further, a winning bidder that breaches the terms as this agreement expressly authorizes The Weeks Group to charge the defaulting bidder’s credit card provided at registration for the full amount of the damages set forth herein, and if such charge is not permitted for any reason, the bidder shall immediately pay the agreed upon damage price to The Weeks Group in the form of certified funds payable to “The Weeks Group.” Failure to pay these damages shall entitle The Weeks Group to collect interest at the highest legally allowable rate from the date of the breach, as well as all costs incurred with collection, including reasonable attorney’s fees.
Bid Cancellation:
The Weeks Group reserves the right to remove or cancel the bids and bidding privileges of the party at any time that bids or bidding is deemed to not be in the best interest of the seller.

The Buyer will be responsible for all closing costs and the transaction will be conducted by the closing attorney specified in the Contract for Sale.
