This is a Demonstration auction depicting an auction in an'Online Bidding' format during 'Last Call®'. Log in and click on the 'Bid Now' tab to place an Online Bid! If you do not have an account: CLICK HERE to Register! To place a bid in an FRE auction, you must first register an account. After you have activated that account, locate the property that you wish to bid on and click on the Red 'Documents' tab to review the documented information about the property and auction, including the Terms and Conditions. Once you have read and agree to the Terms of the Auction, download and fill out the Bid Form Document.

Send your completed Bid Form and Bid Deposit to the address on the Form. When your Bid Form and Deposit are received and verified, your first Bid will be posted for you on the website. If you are out-bid, simply click on the 'Bid Now' tab and place a higher bid.

During 'Last Call®', when a Bid is placed within 24 hours of the published Bid Deadline, the deadline will extend by another 24 hours. This allows all bidders in the auction sufficient time to discuss their next bid with family members and advisors for such an important decision, and removes the need for a bidder to be at their computer until the last second of the auction. 'Last Call®' also eliminates the threat of "Sniping": which is when phantom programs or other bidders come into the auction at the last fraction of a second and place a bid in the hopes of "Sniping" the auction. ______________________________________________________________________

This beautiful stately home is over 200 years old. Architect James Hoban was commissioned by President George Washington to design a suitable presidential residence in 1792. It was rebuilt after a fire in 1812. Built on 18 acres with a commanding view of the Potomac River, this Georgian Neoclassical building has been extended and modifed in great taste by many of its past occupants.

The mansion boasts 132 rooms, 35 bathrooms, and 6 levels in the Residence. There are 28 fireplaces, 8 staircases, and 3 elevators.

Sports facilities within the grounds include a tennis court, jogging track, swimming pool, movie theater, and bowling lane.

Appointments may be made to visit the house by contacting its staff.

For Online Bids:

Once Escrow receives your Bid Deposit and Bid Form, we will post your first bid "Online" and you will be able to view it in the bid history. If someone places a bid higher than you, all you have to do is click on the 'Bid Now' button and place a higher bid. Each "Online" bid is posted in real-time.

For Sealed Bids:

Once Escrow receives your Bid Deposit and Bid Form we will send you a confirmation notice that we have received your bid and will notify you at the end of the auction if you are the highest bidder. If a Sealed Bid is switched to an "Online" bidding format, we will then notify you that the auction you submitted a Sealed Bid for has gone "Online" and at that point you may place "Online" bids by clicking the "Bid Now" button.

 

Please contact the Property Representative if you have any questions regarding the bidding process. We invite you to place a practice online bid on our demonstration property.
