To the rep from Hudson and Marshall: To the rep from Hudson and Marshall: The things you named as "standard auction practice" might indeed be common practice in auctions. That doesn't mean the practices make any real sense, or make for a good consumer experience, which is what the reviewers here are rating you on. Ex: Why start an auction at a price below what is acceptable to the seller, i.e. below the reserve? Be honest about it and start it at the reserve price! Doing otherwise makes a customer feel duped. Any talk of this " helping to make a deal" is just nonsense, and smart consumers see it as an attempt to create excitement over an illusion.

Hudson and Marshall transaction Hudson and Marshall We bid on a REO property, but our final bid was shy of the reserve price. Aldo Gonzales in California, did a wonderful job by contacting us and assisting us in increasing the offer slightly, to reach a price that was acceptable to the bank . Jeff Kung in contract section, was also very amiable and extremely helpful in ensuring a smooth transaction and closing.

Hudson and Marshall are awesome Hudson and Marshall are awesome! I repeat Hudson and Marshall are Great!!!!! They are legit, helpful, and serious about selling their properties. I personally believe the negative reviews are bogus or inspired through lack of serious due diligence of entire online auction purchasing process. H&M are looking for serious offers on listed properties not silly little bids as if your on Ebay. I repeat H&M are legit and serious about selling properties. I love H&M plain and simple. I would buy from them again. I purchased a personal home for a tenth of it real value. I'm a real person stating this opinion.

This company is one of the biggest scams ever This company is one of the biggest scams ever!! They tried to con a relative of mine who happens to be married to a real estate attorney. After speaking with him several times, they overnight the earnest money. They tried to auction a house with multiple lawsuits which they did not disclose. Talk about losers for life!!

Viewings on Vacant Properties with Licensed Agents Amanda answered. How do you expect to sell these properties if they cannot be accessed for showings even though they are vacant? Sight unseen bidding is lower to anticipate repairs by investors, who buy these homes. Buyers assume the property is a total gut if they cannot be given access with their licensed real estate agent to evaluate. Work together with agents to get higher bids by allowing showings when properties are vacant. Agents are in the middle and most walk away because of the issues.
