WHY TRUST FRE AUCTIONS

First and foremost, we want to express our sincere sympathy for the loss and disruption caused by the recent fires. The damage to homes and communities is deeply painful, and we recognize the emotional weight of what you're going through. As a locally based company in Southern California, we are personally connected to the area and understand the unique challenges you're facing. We're here to help you take the next step - on your terms - with compassion, expertise, and clarity.

Proven Experience. Trusted Results.

FRE Auctions, powered by LFC Marketing Services, Inc., has been a leader in real estate auctions for over 30 years. We've successfully marketed and sold more than $5 billion in property across the U.S., Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America.

Our team brings together experts in:

  • Real estate brokerage
  • Online auction technology
  • Global advertising and marketing

For the past 20+ years, we've hosted all our auctions on our proprietary FRE Auctions platform, giving sellers access to a worldwide pool of qualified buyers.

Global Reach for a Local Property

The recent fires brought global media attention to Southern California. Combined with the region's enduring appeal, this exposure means the right buyer for your lot could be anywhere - from a local property owner to an international investor.

Our auction marketing program includes:

  • Print and digital advertising
  • Social media promotion
  • Public relations outreach
  • Easy online bidding access for buyers worldwide

It's likely how you found us - and how the buyer for your lot will find it.

You're in Control

We'll provide you with an estimated value for your lot, but you will set the minimum acceptable sale price, known as the "Release Price." If the highest all-cash offer doesn't meet that price, you can accept, reject, or counteroffer - you're never obligated to sell.

Simple Process. Fair Terms.

Our full marketing timeline takes 45-60 days:

  • Property review & prep
  • Custom auction website build
  • Targeted marketing campaign
  • 30-day escrow after auction ends

If your property sells, you pay LFC a 1% brokerage fee. If it doesn't sell, for any reason, you owe us nothing.
