Thanks for stopping by. We make a lot of friends in this business, coordinating some of the biggest events of our clients' respective lives. We like to get to know each seller as an individual, to understand their goals for their auction and their lives after. It helps us serve them better, by designing custom marketing campaigns to suit the people and the project.
When you conduct over 200 auctions a year, you learn to be flexible - to listen with care. We approach bidders that way, too, educating them on the auction process, our M3 system, and the property of interest. Our reputation after a sale is as important to us as the sale price; and all the awards in the world can't make up for a record of integrity.

Schrader Real Estate and Auction Co., Inc. was founded by Denzil Schrader when he began in 1944 as an auctioneer in Columbia City, Indiana.
Denzil was soon joined by his brother.
The recognition of the Schrader name was built as the auction business grew selling farms, farm equipment, and livestock throughout Indiana and Michigan.
Expansion accelerated beginning in 1967 as a strategic plan was implemented to add Schrader representatives throughout the Midwest.
Growth in the 1970's included selling land by arranging tax-deferred exchanges for many Midwestern landowners moving operations to other regions of the United States.

Auctions have been held and used as an efficient way to sell property for over 2,000 years.
These days, we primarily use 3 different types of auctions: Timed Online Only, Virtual, and Live with Online.
Timed Online Only is an auction where the entire bidding process takes place online, and the property in the auction has a defined closing date and time.
In some cases the bidding can remain open for a day, week, or longer.
Typically if there are bids in the last few minutes of the auction for a particular lot, the end time for that lot will extend for a few minutes to allow the runner-up bidder the chance to get back in.
