C&P Auctions

Welcome to the Coleman & Patterson mobile bidding app! This dynamic app allows you to (1) stay informed about our upcoming auctions;

(2) watch properties that interest you; (3) get notifications when you’ve been outbid; (4) bid no matter where you are located (or set and forget your maximum bid to let our platform automatically bid the lowest possible winning bid for you). This is the go-to-source for up-to-the-minute information on all of our auctions.
