“Great folks! Very knowledgeable, professional, and personable. Highly recommend Beau Cole and the entire Cole Auction team.”
Filiberto Pelayo
“I’ve bought and sold properties through Cole Auction. They are always honest with me and do what they promise.”
Caitlin Lyon
“Our experience with Cole Auction was very positive. They handled everything and were so easy to work with. Our auction took place just about 5 weeks from our initial contact with them. The auction itself went very smoothly, and we were very happy with the final selling price. An individual had offered us $20,000 for the house and lot, but we sold it for $59,000 at the auction – very satisfied!” – Caitlin Lyon
