Terms of Sale
This Auction shall proceed first by the below listed Successor Trustee commencing the sale and reading this Notice
of Sale. Joe R. Pyle Complete Auction and Realty Service (“Auctioneer”) will then solicit bids on behalf of the
Successor Trustee. Bidding shall commence in person and online at the following online auction site:
www.joerpyleauctions.com. Bidders may pre-register in advance of the Auction, and may bid in advance of the
Auction, online at www.joerpyleauctions.com. Bidding will continue until no further bids are entered and the
successful highest and best bidder (the “Winning Bidder”) has been announced.
At the completion of the Auction on October 14, 2026, the Winning Bidder will be required to sign, either
electronically or in person, the Successor Trustee Sale Contract. A form of the Successor Trustee Sale Contract will
be posted online at www.joerpyleauctions.com prior to the Auction. The Winning Bidder shall be required to close
on the Property within thirty calendar days of the Auction (on or before November 13, 2026).
The Winning Bidder will be required to pay a fee (the “Buyer’s Fee”) of ten percent (10%) of the highest bid. The
high bid plus the Buyer’s Fee shall be referred to as the “Winning Bid”. The Buyer’s Fee will be due immediately
following the announcement of the Winning Bid, and shall be paid by the Winning Bidder to the Auctioneer via
cashier’s check or wire transfer. The Buyer’s Fee: (a) is not a deposit; (b) will not be credited towards the purchase
price of the Property; and (c) will not be refunded to the Winning Bidder in the event the Winning Bidder fails to
close or chooses not to close on the Property.
The Winning Bidder will also be required to pay a non-refundable deposit (the “Deposit”), which shall consist of
ten percent (10%) of the high bid to the Successor Trustee via cashier’s check or wire transfer immediately
following the announcement of the Winning Bid. The Deposit will either be: (a) credited towards the purchase
price at closing; or (b) forfeited to the Beneficiary upon default of the Winning Bidder by failure to close on the
Property within thirty days of the Auction, or by the Winning Bidder’s breach of any term, condition, or obligation
set forth in the Successor Trustee Sale Contract.
The Winning Bidder’s failure pay the Buyer’s Fee or the Deposit, failure to close this sale within thirty
calendar days of the Auction, or breach of any term, condition, or obligation set forth in the Successor Trustee Sale
Contract, shall, at the option of Beneficiary, be cause for rejection of the bid, and if the bid is rejected, Beneficiary
shall have the option of directing the Successor Trustee to sell the Property to the Backup Bidder, as defined
below.
The second highest bidder at the auction will be deemed the “Backup Bidder” for the sale and said bid (the
“Backup Bid”) will be deemed non-revocable. The Backup Bidder will be required to execute a “Backup Contract”
at the completion of the Auction. The Backup Bidder will be required to post a deposit in the amount of $50,000.00
(the “Backup Deposit”) to the Successor Trustee by cashier’s check or wire transfer immediately following the
announcement of the Winning and Backup Bids. If the second highest bidder declines to sign the Backup Contract,
the Successor Trustee may, in his sole and absolute discretion, elect to select another Backup Bidder who shall sign
the Backup Contract and submit the $50,000.00 Backup Deposit. If the closing on the Winning Bid by the Winning
Bidder fails to occur, the Backup Bidder shall become the Winning Bidder and will be required to submit the
balance of the Deposit to the Substitute Trustee (that is, the Deposit, less the $50,000.00 Backup Deposit), and the
Buyer’s Fee to the Auctioneer, and shall close within twenty (20) calendar days of being notified of being the new
Winning Bidder. The Backup Deposit shall either: (a) be returned to the Backup Bidder within two (2) business days
of the successful closing of the Winning Bid by the Winning Bidder; or (b) if the Backup Bidder becomes the
Winning Bidder, as set forth above, then the Backup Deposit shall be credited towards the purchase price of the
Property at closing. If the Backup Bidder becomes the Winning Bidder and thereafter fails to timely close on its
Backup Bid under the sale terms and conditions set forth in the Backup Contract, then the Backup Bidder shall
forfeit the Backup Deposit and the Buyer’s Fee.
The proceeds derived from the sale of the Property will be applied as provided for in said Deed of Trust and are
made a part hereof as if set forth verbatim herein.
The Beneficiary shall have a right to bid at the Auction. The sale shall be subject to the following:
a. any unpaid taxes against the Property;
b. any recorded easements, conditions, covenants, rights-of-way or subdivision plats affecting the property;
