Real Estate Listings & Auctions

I sell homes and properties as-is! My approach to selling real estate is simple: the sale should be “as-is” and include nonrefundable deposits. This makes for a much smoother and stress-free process. Many agents will lead you into a sales strategy that involve multiple contingencies, repair negotiations, and other hurdles that lead to lost deals and endless headaches. My sales process works to eliminate those headaches while still maintaining the profitability of your home or property. Whether you are looking for a traditional listing or an auction, I have the marketing tools, experience, and knowledge to make the sale happen and to obtain impressive prices.

Unlike others who simply list your property and wait, I actively market your home to get it sold. Some of these marketing tools include:

Professional photography & videography

Targeted social media ads

Staging to showcase your home’s potential

Eye-catching signage

Email marketing campaigns

Listings on multiple real estate sites

Extensive experience accurately pricing properties

A following of buyers developed over years in the business
…and more!

There is a lot to consider when deciding between a traditional listing and a real estate auction. As a licensed real estate broker and an auctioneer, I offer sales strategies many agents can’t. Benefits of an auction include: an established sale date, competitive bidding, and no contingency contracts. Benefits of traditional listings include: longer marketing periods, negotiations, and a more buyer-friendly process.

Every situation is unique. This is why I take the time to listen to your concerns and create a custom plan for you.

Estate Services

In addition to selling your home or property, I offer my real estate clients the additional services listed below to make life even easier:

Auctions of large assets such as farm equipment, vehicles, outdoor toys, etc. Let us bring bidders to the table to get your assets sold.

Home Cleanout Service
A clean, clutter-free home doesn’t just look better — it sells better. Buyers make stronger offers when a home looks presentable and they can picture themselves living there.
Our service makes the process simple: you keep what you want and we handle the rest. From removing unwanted items to tidying up around the home and yard, we get your property market-ready fast
Estate Sale Referrals
While we do not conduct the estate sales ourselves, I have a great working relationship with Reruns Antiques and Estate Sales and am happy to coordinate with them to conduct a successful estate sale.
Extensive Network of Repair / Handymen Services
Let’s be honest, sometimes your home may need a few repairs or updates to do well on the market. We keep a close relationship with several home service professionals to make this easier for you.

Every estate is different. This is why W. Bear Lloyd Auctions & Real Estate is ready to help you create a custom plan for the sale of your home and estate. Call today to learn more.

Auctions

Selling collections of large assets, such as farm or industrial equipment, requires more than a “For Sale” sign—it takes the reach and efficiency of a professional auction. At W. Bear Lloyd Auctions & Real Estate, I conduct auctions designed to connect your items with motivated buyers across the region and beyond.

Every sale, from live auctions to online, is unique. That is why we will work together to develop a strategy that best suits your needs. My team and I can handle every detail so you can focus on what matters most.

‍ ‍Some of the benefits of auctions include:

Competitive Bidding – Buyers compete in real time, often driving prices higher than private sales.

Wider Reach – Auctions often attract buyers from outside your immediate area.

Speed – From listing to the final sale, the process is quick and efficient.

Transparency – All bids are open and visible, creating confidence for both sellers and buyers.

Turnkey Service – We handle marketing, registration, payments, and pickup/shipping.

Ready to sell? Contact me today for a free consultation and learn how the auction method can work for your farm or estate.

Whether it’s for a charity, school, or community organization, fundraising auctions are designed to maximize participation and giving. I offer live events that generate in-the-room excitement—perfect for reaching supporters, alumni, donors, and friends

We will discuss your event in order to make for a memorable experience, assist in setting up your auction catalog, and create a smooth bidder experience from start to finish. My approach encourages competition, drives generosity, and makes your supporters feel part of something special while delivering results for your cause .

Let’s make your next fundraiser unforgettable. Call me today to discuss your goals and start planning your auction.

William “Bear” Lloyd has centered his entire business model on one foundational principle - treat everyone with honesty and respect.

He founded W. Bear Lloyd Auctions & Real Estate to make this process easier. Bear believes that selling your home or other asset should be a black and white process, not one where contracts are full of never ending contingencies that never reach the closing table.
