The Todd method of selling at auction is an exact science, born of extensive experience, care and skill. This method is based on the Todd Philosophy that presentation of property in its most desirable aspect, not only satisfies the buyer, but also brings more money to the seller.

Enthusiastic crowds of prospective buyers come to every sale. Many interested prospects mean competitive bidding, and consequently, more dollars for you. Year after year our highly successful sales have increased buyer interest all over the country. As a result, the number of bidders who are familiar with our sales and who know they can trust J. L. Todd continues to increase.

We believe that time is money. A Todd auction is the quickest way to convert what you own into immediate cash. If you are ready to retire and free yourself from a confining business . . . or you wish to move, and need cash in a hurry . . . if you are the executor of an estate that requires prompt liquidation . . . or you represent a bank that wishes to convert some properties to make other investments, then the Todd Company can make money for you, while saving time.

When you sell your property at auction, you put your problems directly into the hands of interested experts. They will analyze your property and consider its most important features, prospective market, expected price, and the most effective way to promote its sale. All this is carefully done on a definite schedule, insuring a smooth, efficient operation and a successful sale.

Before sale day, Todd representatives who are already familiar with the property, will be on the grounds to acquaint people with the buying points. On sale day, all details for a successful auction will be completed and buyers will be ready to buy.

The Todd method is the ideal means to settle estates, sell businesses, real estate and every type of personal property. Courts, trustees and businessmen everywhere are convinced that a well-advertised, professionally managed auction is the best way to determine a fair market value.
