Columbus, Ohio - May 10, 2010 - United Country - Gryphon Realty & Auction Group will conduct a "privatized" foreclosure auction on May 26, selling a 3,055-square-foot commercial building in Columbus, Ohio. Whether buyers are looking for the right location for their small business or a commercial property investment, this opportunity should not be missed.
"Ohio has allowed licensed auctioneers to sell property in place of the county sheriff since 1969," said Rich Kruse, president of United Country - Gryphon Realty & Auction Group. "However, it's just been recently that the banks actually put this option to use. The sheriff has up to 200 properties to sell each week in some counties, so in many cases it makes more sense to engage private auctioneers."
The live auction will take place onsite at 3205 East Dublin Granville Road in Columbus, Ohio. The event will begin at 10 a.m. EST on May 26, and the property is available by appointment for private showings before the auction event.
"The commercial real estate market is in transition and these types of events provide an opportunity for investors to expand their portfolios with a prime property at a favorable price," said Kruse. "Offering properties at auction provides expedience, effectiveness and the ability to achieve a transparent price through competitive bidding."
Formerly used as a real estate title office, the building for sale is a brick and frame structure with a block foundation and paved parking area. A split-level structure offering 3,055 sq. ft. of space, the property has 18 parking spaces and 354 feet of frontage on well-traveled Dublin Granville Road, just west of Westerville Road in Minerva Park.
