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 “<strong>The</strong> lower the open bid the more<br />
winning bidder is the one with the most people can afford to bid.” So you could<br />

knock out some of the opposition before<br />

opposing bidders to give up, hoping to right opener.<br />

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

preparation. Make sure you go to a few $2000 bids and it’s below your limit don’t<br />
auctions first to get used to them. be afraid to put a $10,000 bid in.”<br />
Come bidding day, park yourself on “Your competition is always thinking<br />
the side at the front so that you can about that next $2000 bid and if you<br />
see everyone in the room and, more change the rhythm from $2000 to<br />
importantly, they can see you whether $10,000 you show you have the money<br />
