We are not a prototype. After selling hundreds of quarters over several years we know we are the right piece of equipment for the sale of agricultural land. If you talk to prior Sellers that have used CLHbid.com, most don’t view our platform as a cost but rather a function of how much more we brought them in net value.
A handoff between parties is seldom flawless whether that be in a relay race or business transaction. At CLHbid.com, there is no handoff. We are not just part of the equation; we are the entire equation and solution. From your very first call right down to handing you a cheque at closing — we walk the entire walk with you.
The maximum net return to the Seller is a function of gross selling price less cost to sell. If a 2% or 3% increase in cost equates to a 25% or 40% increase in total selling price, a Seller, of course, stands to net more and, in some cases, significantly more by going with a trusted platform that is innovative and built to maximize value. Farmers know better than anyone that seldom is a cheap decades-old tool best for a big complicated job on today’s farm.

Each and every client’s story is heard and valued so that we can truly understand the best option for the sale of the land. This involves more than land, often it includes meeting with other family members, business partners in a corporation, renters, or neighbours. The community surrounding the land is also important to know the dynamics of the area or what the future potential could be.

How does CLHbid.com's unique 'En Bloc' feature maximize value?
On certain multi-parcel sales on CLHbid.com, once all bids are in, our ‘en bloc’ process offers only those bidders who have bid the highest on a set number of parcels to then bid against other multiple high bidders for the entire ‘en bloc’ land up for sale. To be fair to prior individual bidders, the ‘en bloc’ bidding starts at a premium amount that is in excess of the aggregate of all prior individual bids and bidders must meet requirements in order to participate in the 'en bloc' round of bidding. Buyers know it is almost impossible to be high on all parcels when selling on choice, and appreciate the ‘en bloc’ option.
What is your commission?
It is difficult to compare commission rates with others that sell farm land unless you are comparing what is all included in that commission.
