Situated on 2 lots, totaling 0.49+/- ac. in the Bentonville community, this charming, 2-story, history-filled building, once known as “Borden Store” and also used as a hotel, is now a home consisting of 4,200 sq.ft. (2,100 sq.ft. on each level). There is a walk-out front balcony over a ground level front porch, a backyard deck and a large double carport.

*A Brief Explanation of the Bidding Process* Interested Bidders can bid online any time during the timed auction bidding period. This “Timed” method is similar to how eBay operates, where bidders can enter their maximum bid amounts and walk away (with the software handling your bid increases automatically thereafter), or you can proactively enter each bid individually... as you desire. You will receive an immediate “push notification” whenever you are outbid by another Bidder. Any bid made in the closing 2 minutes of the auction will extend the bidding time for an additional 2 minutes, which allows the previous high bidder to be notified and given the opportunity to increase their bid. Please contact the Auction Firm with any questions or if you need assistance with bidding.
AS IS - WHERE IS SALE: This property is being sold strictly "AS IS, WHERE IS” with no contingencies of sale of any kind. The sale is immediately binding and irrevocable. Bidders must conduct their own due diligence and investigation of the property to determine suitability prior to placing their bids. Bidders must rely solely upon information gathered through their personal investigation. Failure of a bidder to be fully informed on a property will not constitute grounds for claims or canceling the sale. All information provided regarding this property was obtained from official public records &/or other sources deemed reliable and believed correct, but is not warranted or guaranteed whatsoever. Please, DO NOT BID if you have not completed your Due Diligence.
BUYER’S PREMIUM, DOWN PAYMENT & CLOSING: A Buyer’s Premium of 10% of the high bid amount will be added to the final bid to determine the total sales price (For example: a high bid of $50,000.00 will have a 10% Buyer’s Premium ($5,000.00) added to the high bid for a total sales price of $55,000.00). Please consider this Premium when placing all bids. The Buyer’s Premium is non-negotiable. A non-refundable deposit in the amount of 10% of the highest final bid is required following the auction. Accepted forms of payment include Cash, Certified Check, Cashier’s Check, Bank Wire Transfer, or Postal Money Order. The Purchaser will have until 12:00 Noon (EST), Thursday, September 22, 2022 to deliver their executed Purchase Agreement and deposit of 10% of the highest final bid amount, in person, or via overnight carrier, to the Auction Firm. The balance of the purchase price is due at closing NO LATER THAN Wednesday, October 19, 2022. The Buyer is responsible for all closing costs customarily charged to a Purchaser upon closing a real estate transaction in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the Seller will pay customary Seller’s closing costs. Real estate taxes shall be pro-rated between the parties as of the date of final settlement.
CONTRACT/DOCUMENT PROCESS: Within twenty-four (24) hours following the close of the auction, the Auction Firm shall contact the high bidder by email &/or telephone to provide all required sale documents for the Purchaser’s signature. All purchase documents will be provided to the Purchaser, who shall sign and return all purchase documents, along with the required deposit, to the Auction Firm, either in person or via OVERNIGHT delivery, no later than 12:00 Noon on Thursday, September 22, 2022. The Contract for Sale and Terms of Sale are not subject to negotiation.

BE ADVISED… state law gives the Seller &/or Auction Firm the right to pursue legal action against Bidders/Purchasers who refuse to satisfy their contractual obligations. This may include, but is not limited to, suit to compel completion of the sale and/or criminal charges of fraud or other intentional acts, as well as any other remedies available in law or in equity, including damages for any insufficiency between the original sales price and the price realized upon resale. In addition, if the high bidder fails to fulfill their contractual obligations, they will be banned from bidding at all future auctions conducted by this Auction Firm.
