Selling Real Estate in Centre County, PA

Centre County sits at the geographic heart of Pennsylvania, with Bellefonte as its county seat and State College and Penn State’s University Park campus as its busiest hub. I-80, I-99 and US 322 tie the county together, and its long limestone valleys, Nittany, Penns, Brush and Bald Eagle, run between wooded ridges. Formed in 1800 from parts of four older counties, it blends a lively college town with some of the most scenic farm country in the state.

Penns Valley, Brush Valley & the Grange Fair

East of State College, Penns Valley has been set aside for farming since the late 1700s, with Penns Creek, Centre Hall and Millheim at its center. Just north, Brush Valley’s limestone soils surround the villages of Rebersburg and Madisonburg, where buggies and horse-drawn farm equipment are a common sight. The county counts roughly 890 farms on about 120,000 acres, led by dairy, grain and cattle. Every August, Centre Hall hosts the Grange Fair, one of the last tenting fairs in the country, with close to a thousand tents in rows across the grounds.

About 157,000 people call Centre County home, and around 62 percent of homes are owner-occupied, with households averaging just over two people.

FAQ

I feel overwhelmed with the thought of selling my property. How can I know I am doing the right thing?

We Get It. We understand your goals and concerns because we work every day with property owners who feel just like you. We believe you shouldn’t need to figure out the best way to sell your property all by yourself. In our years of Real Estate experience, we’ve repeatedly seen auctions bring the highest value for properties. Let’s talk about the potential of a Real Estate Auction for you.

What is the value of my property?

There are several factors that play a part in determining the value of your property. Location – is it in a prime area? Seclusion- is your house close to the road, or is it secluded? Building condition – are your buildings in need of repairs? These are just a few of the things Intel Auctions takes into consideration when we evaluate your property.

What is the value of my Farmland?

There are several factors that play a part in determining the value of your farmland. Location – is it in a prime area? Zoning- is it zoned Agriculture, Residential, or Commercial? Building sites- are there any building sites on the property? Tillable – how many acres are tillable? These are just a few of the things Intel Auctions takes into consideration when we evaluate your farmland . Schedule your FREE consultation today!

What is the cost to evaluate my property?

Intel auctions does FREE evaluations.

How does an auction work?

Intel Auctions has two auction methods, Live Auction and Intel Phone Bidding. Utilizing the Live Auction method gets all potential bidders onsite at your property. We then open the auction with a starting bid, after which each bidder can raise the bid as often as desired until each bidder has put in his maximum bid. Once the bidding is complete, the property is sold in “As – Is” condition to the winning bidder.

The Intel Phone Bidding Auction is managed just like the Live Auction, but the auction is done via phone bidding instead of on your property. The auctioneer manages the bids and lets callers know where the current high bid is at. Bidders can raise the bid as often as desired. Once all bidders have placed their highest bid, the Auctioneer sells the property in “As-is” condition to the winning bidder.

Do I need an attorney?

Intel Auctions handles all the details throughout the auction process including an attorney that prepares the conditions of sale.

Can I have a reserve price for my property?

Yes, we are happy to help you determine the correct reserve price for your property. With our extensive marketing platform and aggressive auction management, you can have peace of mind that your property brought its value.

Do I have to be available to show customers my property?

No, Intel Auctions manages open houses and showings. You can focus on the next steps in your life. Besides, we like to meet potential bidders and be available for any questions they might have. We believe this motto – Relationships and Communication Equal Top Dollar for your Home!
