jmccade 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2005 Ebay or www.superstreetsmartwebprofits.com<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Jonathan, The web profits link does not work. Is this what you use for your website? How much did your site cost or did you design it yourself? Good job with it either way. Jake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Craig 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2005 Does anyone have any suggestions for online auction software? I am rebuilding my website and am thinking hard about starting to use online auctions to move my houses. Jake<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hi Jake: I called YAHOO concerning this same question. They said if I went to www.hotscripts.com they have many offers both free and pay for such wares to be added the your web site which manage the auction service. He did say that the middle package had to be purchased for such scripts to operate. I have a my host as YAHOO. Its only the low package for $11.95 per month so I would have to upgrade before I ran a auction. Would say I get lots of information from YAHOO for a seamless service I am very happy with. Even has a SPELLCHECKER ( I believe that was hard to find at one time.) Right Michael?Craig Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I checked out Hotscripts and I'm in the process to see if I can integrate any of them into my website (which I built using a template program called Website Complete). Hopefully I'll hear back on that pretty soon. One question though: How do you coordinate the auction between the phone and the website? Some people don't have internet access, so I wouldn't imagine that it's done exclusively online. I'll let everyone know what I find out from my hosting company (godaddy.com) about integrating the CGI scripts into my website. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doug Pretorius (ON) 9 Report post Posted May 13, 2005 Yes, thank you Craig, that's a great site! My host Dot Easy offers PHP and Perl support for $7.95/mo. I'm trying to install eAuction (a free Perl program) I'll let you know how it goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmccade 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2005 Check out phpAuction (the GPL version). http://phpauction.org/gpl.php Another one I found is here. http://www.everysoft.com/auction.html www.open-realty.com is a site that helps list properties in a nicer / easier way that updating your site every single time you have a new house to post.

mpine 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2005 (edited) I have Open Realty setup, and I am allowing investors to use it for free to post there properties. You get your own account to put up your listings, your own contact information (ie. phone, website url, company info), and anyone who submits for a mortgage application via your listing will be pre-qualified for you at no cost. I figure this is a great way to build a larger list of Rent To Own homes and help us all by making this more acceptable to the masses. Plus I am finding driving sellers to the site is motivating them to use my lipropertysolutions.com website. http://www.fsbomortgages.info Here is one listing I put up for our very own Alan ..... 10 Sunset Drive Next week I should have the same offer for Auctions using PHPAuction.
