This is not a "Real Estate Auction" website. While information and queries concerning most any concept of Live auctions, the primary focus of this site is to help educate the public in general about auctions. Thanks I don’t see where anyone has attempted to mislead anyone.

If not a "Primary "Broker" of your own company you will not be able to sell the property in your own company's name. As an agent you will be able to sell it in the name of the real estate company you work for. Sorry auctioneers, you'll not be able to say your selling REAL ESTATE in your ad unless your the primary broker! It's got to be a separate ad by whom ever is holding your license. We wouldn't want to mislead the public..right? In NYS minimally you’ll need a real estate agents license to sell real estate at auction.

Since Alabama is a "license state", I would think that the answer would be a definite "yes". As far as Minnesota, you will also need a license, but it is issued at the county level. Check the links for the licensing requirements and possible reciprocity agreements. Mitch

I work with ICA (InternationalClassic Car Auctions). I am curious to know if i am required to hold a license in Alabama or Minnesota to sell classic & specialty cars. If so, is it something i can do online or do I have to actually go to that state or county to obtain a license. Someone please let me know what I am required to do. Thank You!

However, New York City does have local auction licensing laws that you would have to comply with, if auctioning in that city. So, unless you are auctioning within a particular city that has such laws, you aren't required to be licensed as an auctioneer. Of course, such lack of requirements have also led to many so-called auctioneers, which also do not understand the laws that must still be considered when selling at auction. The lack of requiring a license does not alleviate you from complying with many other laws that you should be aware of, prior to selling many different types of property.

There have been numerous states that have passed legislation regarding this subject, some requiring licensing in some form or another and others specifically stating that licensing is not required. In the upper right corner of this blog, you will find a link to <a href="http://auctionlaw.wordpress.com/state-auction-laws-auctioneer-licensing-requirements/" rel="nofollow">State Auction Laws & Auctioneer Licensing Requirements</a>, which has a list of state auctioneer licensing websites. Most of those websites will also have links to the related auction laws for the state and you can search through the website to find the law for your particular state. There is another blog on the web, under auctionbytes.com which had an older post about online auction licensing. I don't know if she keeps it updated, but her website is targeted at the online auctions versus Real Live Auctions, which actually operate a bit differently. Of course, that is the reason I decided to start this blog, as there are hundreds/thousands of forum about online auctions, but it's hard to find real information about Live Auctions, so I'm just trying to fill in the gap a little.
