Looking confident may be all you need<br />

to be the last bidder standing when the<br />

hammer goes down.<br />

Does your blood pressure go sky-high<br />

at the sight of an auction room? Chances<br />

are some of your fellow bidders are doing<br />

all in their power to psych you out and<br />

win the bidding.<br />

Securing a property isn’t just about<br />

having the most money. Sometimes the<br />

winning bidder is the one with the most<br />

confidence.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y use psychology to convince<br />

opposing bidders to give up, hoping to<br />

make everyone else think they’ve got<br />

more to spend than anyone else in the<br />

room.<br />

Too often, buyers have preconceived<br />

ideas about how the auction will unfold<br />

and have their confidence knocked when<br />

it doesn’t go their way.<br />

Two can play at that game. You just<br />

need to get your strategy right.<br />

Looking confident may be all you need<br />

to be the last bidder standing when the<br />

hammer goes down.<br />

To be that person you need to do some<br />

preparation. Make sure you go to a few<br />

auctions first to get used to them.<br />

Come bidding day, park yourself on<br />

the side at the front so that you can<br />

see everyone in the room and, more<br />

importantly, they can see you whether<br />

they’re at the back or the front.<br />

“It gives you a vantage point and<br />

shows the opposition you are bidding<br />

confidently against them.”<br />

“You are hoping that the other buyers<br />

have a plan in place.”<br />

Often that’s to start low. So if you<br />

come in with a relatively high first bid,<br />

you may rattle them.<br />

Confident at auctions<br />

“<strong>The</strong> lower the open bid the more<br />

people can afford to bid.” So you could<br />

knock out some of the opposition before<br />

they even place a bid if you choose the<br />

right opener.<br />

Don’t start at $500,000 for a house you<br />

know is going to go for at least $800,000.<br />

Put an opening bid of $785,000 in.<br />

Immediately your opposition is going<br />

to think it will go incredibly high and<br />

might be unnerved.<br />

Call each bid out confidently. “It shows<br />

you are comfortable and in control.”<br />

“<strong>The</strong> more confident you seem the<br />

more people will think you have done it<br />

before.”<br />

It’s a really good idea to vary your<br />

bidding increments. “If it’s going up by<br />

$2000 bids and it’s below your limit don’t<br />

be afraid to put a $10,000 bid in.”<br />

“Your competition is always thinking<br />

about that next $2000 bid and if you<br />

change the rhythm from $2000 to<br />

$10,000 you show you have the money<br />

and it changes where their next bid has<br />

to be. Instead of $4000 more it is $12,000<br />

more.”<br />

Finally, if you’re a couple, make sure<br />

you’ve discussed every aspect of the<br />

auction before you get there. As soon<br />

as you start looking at each other or<br />

conferring, the opposition will think<br />

you’re weak.<br />

PAYING ATTENTION?<br />

Jacinda Ardern said, “I wouldn’t have joined<br />

(AUKUS ALLIANCE) anyway.” (Upset China?). However,<br />

God, 2500 years ago, has already determined N.Z (young<br />

lion) will be allied with Britain (old lion) and other white<br />

dominions, against Rosh (Russia), Gog (Germany),<br />

Gomer (France).<br />

HENCE BREXIT!<br />

Iran, Ethiopia and Libya. (Ezekiel 38, note latter years,<br />

verses 8, 16). Occupying Togarmah (Turkey), invading<br />

“MY PEOPLE ISRAEL.”<br />

WORLD WAR 3.<br />

This prophecy couldn’t happen before 1948. Why?<br />

Because the Jewish national BODY “died” through Roman<br />

massacre and dispersion, A.D. 70 to 135. <strong>The</strong>n Israel<br />

- alive again, - May 14, 1948.<br />

nations with perplexity.” (Luke 21 v 25).<br />
