Waveland, MS

“We were really pleased with the result of this auction in several respects. Vacation homes have been slow to bounce back as the economy has recovered, and this one had a good bit of deferred maintenance. Despite that, we got it sold at a price that pleased the seller, and it has closed successfully. A title company executive said this was the first house over $1 million they’ve closed in a year in the area,” said Ward.
