Finding Auctions in Your Area

Finding auctions in your area involves doing some simple research. Your first step should be to contact local auction houses. A quick search of the yellow pages should give you a healthy list. Call the auction houses or go to their websites to see if they have any auctions scheduled. You might also look through the classified sections of local newspapers.

Classified sections often list local auctions and estate sales. While it may sound morbid, if you're looking for estate sales, you should look through the obituaries section of the local paper, which sometimes lists estate sales. Finally, it's worth contacting your local government to see if any government auctions are going to be held soon.
