Choosing Auction Software for a Multi-Office Real Estate Group
01 / GROUP REQUIREMENTS
What should the group account cover?
Ask the provider to demonstrate these features in its auction management software.
| Area | What to check | Demo request |
|---|---|---|
| Office access | Who can view and edit each office’s auctions. | Show an office user and a group administrator. |
| Reporting | Results and bidder activity by office and across the group. | Show the same reporting period for two offices. |
| Branding | Shared registration pages, website widgets and presentations. | Apply a group template to an office auction. |
| New offices | Account setup, user access and training. | Show how another office is added. |

Confirm which settings head office controls and which remain with each office. Do not assume a group administrator can change every office setting.
02 / REPORTING
Compare the same figures across offices.
A real estate auction system should let the group review auction volumes, results, registrations and bidding activity. Ask how withdrawn, postponed and unsold auctions appear in reports. Use the same dates and result definitions when comparing offices.
03 / WEBSITES AND EVENTS
Connect office websites and group events.
Check whether the property auction platform can display auctions on individual office websites and a group auction hub. Confirm the CRM connections needed by each office.
Auction software for real estate agents must support the formats each office runs. For shared Multi-Lot/In-Room events, check property order, late changes and presentation templates. Auctions Live’s Prezo Studio lets teams create custom branded templates and layouts.
For an online auction platform for property, test the bidder stream’s sound, picture and latency, meaning the delay between the auctioneer and viewer. Confirm where recordings are saved, how to download a copy and how replays appear on office and group websites.
04 / ROLLOUT
Confirm costs and support before rollout.
Request a quote covering:
- Group and office fees, including adding new offices.
- Website connections, training and optional services.
- Who is invoiced: head office, each office or both.
- Support hours and the contact for auction-day problems.
Test the auction technology with two offices before a wider rollout. Check user access, website links and group reports. Fix problems before adding the remaining offices.
05 / AUCTIONS LIVE
How does Auctions Live support groups?
Auctions Live supports corporate groups with office hierarchies, role-based access and group auction reporting. Registration workflows, presentation templates and website widgets can be standardised. A central auction hub can display auctions from across the network.
The offices and branches solution supports offices operating independently or within a corporate hierarchy. Confirm the account structure and services for your group.
