conflict between these terms and any auction announcement for a specific property, the auction

5. The real estate that is being offered for sale at on-line auction is referred to as the “Property”.
6. Unless otherwise noted or announced with respect to a particular Property, all auctions are

responsible for obtaining the answer or otherwise satisfying Yourself prior to the auction. If any
provision or the Purchase Agreement or the preliminary title commitment is unacceptable to
You, You should not bid on the Property as You will be unable to negotiate terms after the
auction is closed.
8. THE PROPERTY IS NOT BEING SOLD CONTINGENT ON FINANCING. If You are the winning or
successful bidder, You are bound to purchase the Property unless the seller cannot deliver
marketable title as described in the Purchase Agreement, or the auction is with reserve and the
seller does not accept the winning bid.
9. THE PROPERTY IS NOT BEING SOLD CONTINGENT ON ANY TYPE OF INSPECTION. If You desire
any physical inspection or other due diligence with respect to the Property, You must complete
this prior to the auction. If You desire to inspect the Property, You must make arrangements
with Us to conduct such inspection. If You or Your representatives desire access to the Property
for purposes of conducting a physical inspection, You may be required to sign a property access
agreement as a condition to such access. Should You elect to view or inspect the Property, You
assume all risk while on the Property and We have no liability for any injury or damage that may
occur to You, Your agents or guests while on the Property.

and evaluations that You deem necessary. Without limiting the foregoing, no representation or
warranty is made concerning the condition of the Property, the suitability of the Property for any
particular use or purpose, the absence of lead paint at the Property, the Property’s compliance with
any laws or ordinances (including. without limitation, environmental laws, current building codes,
and zoning ordinances), or the lack or any encroachment affecting the Property.
