A suitable auction property is one that has very good demand but limited supply . Also it should be such that it is difficult to put a price to the property, thereby requiring competitive bidding to understand where the property stands in terms of market value.

The seller of real estate auction property must be someone who has confidence in the market value of his property, and is keen to see the property sold in time.
