Auction Partners
Become a Real Estate auction partner
At North American Auctioneers we are a firm believer that local knowledge is a key component to getting a property sold quickly and for top dollar and have been working with Realtors across Canada since 1999. As we are affiliated with a Ontario Real Estate brokerage we are able to pay referral fees to Realtors who refer properties to us and we also work together with Realtors on properties where we do not have the “boots on the ground” If you would like to inquire if a property you currently have listed would be right for auction or join our partners list please click the contact us link.

FAQ's
We host live-streamed Auction Events and online Timed Auctions for estate, equipment, business liquidations, vehicles, land, and more. Franchisees can choose the best format per market—live streaming offers maximum exposure, while timed auctions allow anytime bidding.
Absolutely. We supply full training across auction processes, marketing, legal compliance, and bid handling. You’ll learn to oversee everything from pre-auction prep (valuations, legal packs) to post-auction follow-ups.
Buyers may bid remotely via phone, proxy, or internet. Proxy bidding allows them to set a maximum and be represented live—ideal for those unable to attend.
We offer both:
Unconditional sale: Buyer pays a deposit (typically 10%) and completes purchase within ~30 days.
Conditional sale: Buyer pays a reservation fee (around 5%), and you have up to ~60 days to complete—opening bidding to more buyers
For unconditional auctions, yes, buyers must have funds or mortgage in place. For conditional auctions, they secure a reservation fee, and have time afterward to arrange finance.
Yes. In unconditional sales, contracts are legally binding immediately. In conditional sales, exclusivity begins, and failure to complete risks losing fees and legal repercussions.
We maintain transparency through catalogs or addendums that highlight reserve prices. Unsold lots are then featured in continued marketing, order to secure post-auction offers.
You or your solicitor will prepare a legal pack—contracts, disclosures, title info—available before bidding. Our team handles marketing, photography, and viewings.
