What makes Scott Martin Auctions different from other auction companies?
We are one of the busiest auction houses in the country. We hold over 150 live auctions every year.  Our 600+ clients place their trust and property with us.
We have the facility, staff, and tools of the trade to conduct auctions of personal property and collections, estates, real estate and farm land, business liquidations, vehicles, homes and commercial buildings, and much more.
We are committed to professionalism in every step of the auction. You and your property are our primary concern.
While other auctioneers spend most of their time looking for sellers, we direct most of our time attracting buyers. This means more buyers competing for your property. Our large e-mail and mailing list of bidders understand and appreciate that we hold auctions of higher quality, and they attend and bid accordingly.
We are up front with all of our clients. You will know exactly what the fees are in advance. We even give this to you in writing. There are no hidden fees.
We will inspect your items and/or property for free and discuss with you the best way to bring them to auction.
Our staff is well informed and knowledgeable in a vast array of product areas. Your items will be advertised given a proper description so as to bring higher bids on auction day.
Our 2 eBay accounts are among the oldest and trusted of any auctioneer nationwide.  Thousands of sales and 100% satisfied customers. Do not be fooled by so-called internet or eBay auctioneers. Our record speaks for itself.  Scott Martin Auctions is an authorized eBay Trading Assistant. If eBay is the right place to sell, we will let you know.
Your auction can happen at your residence or at our Auction House, should you choose not to draw attention to your location.
Our auction facility is well maintained, with clean facilities and properly controlled heat and air conditioning.  A comfortable buyer will stay longer.
We advertise your auction to millions of potential bidders across the country. Our computer software also makes it possible for bidders to make bids on your property from anywhere in the country. We even provide the shipping services should we have nationwide bidders.
Our staff takes care of every little detail on auction day. We are professionally trained to make your auction the best that it can be.
Our custom auction software gives you a detailed listing of each item sold with a description and price. Compare this with the hundreds of tiny papers that you may get with other auctioneers. 
We maintain a detailed database of buyers from years of auctions wanting to attend your auction.
We can post hundreds of pictures online to attract even more bidders.
