Why Smart Buyers Choose Real Estate Auctions — And Why They Choose Watts ARA
At Watts Auctions, Realty, and Appraisals, we believe there’s a better way to buy real estate — a way that’s transparent, efficient, and driven by real market value. That’s why more and more buyers across Central Virginia are turning to real estate auctions to find their next property, and why they’re trusting Watts ARA to guide them through the process.
As the leading real estate auctioneer in Lynchburg, Rustburg, and Central Virginia, we’ve helped hundreds of buyers—from first-time investors to experienced landowners—acquire residential, commercial, and agricultural properties through competitive bidding. Here's why buying at auction with Watts ARA isn’t just an alternative—it’s a strategic advantage.
1. Transparent Pricing & Real Market Value
At auction, there’s no guesswork. The bidding process is public and transparent, so buyers know exactly what others are willing to pay. That means true market value sets the price—not artificial markups, emotional negotiations, or behind-the-scenes deals. If you're tired of the traditional back-and-forth, auctions offer an open, honest process where the highest bid wins—simple as that.
2. Speed and Efficiency
In traditional real estate sales, transactions can drag on for weeks or months. Auctions, on the other hand, come with clear timelines and fast closings. Once the gavel drops, buyers and sellers know exactly what to expect and when. If you're ready to act, auctions let you move with confidence and speed.
3. Unique and Diverse Properties
Watts ARA specializes in bringing unique and hard-to-find properties to the auction block—from historic homes and farmland to income-producing commercial buildings and undeveloped land. Many of these properties never even make it to the traditional market, giving our bidders exclusive access to opportunities they won't find anywhere else.
4. Competitive Opportunity
Auctions allow every buyer a fair shot. Whether you’re working with a tight budget or looking to expand a real estate portfolio, the auction format lets you compete fairly and transparently. At Watts ARA, we level the playing field so every bidder can walk away with a win.
5. Expertise You Can Trust
