Web-Based Auction Solutions

More credit unions are tapping into the Internet's potential, and evidence suggests that recaptured revenue can be substantial, including shortened remarketing cycles, higher sales prices, and even new loan revenue, frequently at equal or lower costs than traditional remarketing channels.

TitleAuctions delivers retail, wholesale, and member vehicle remarketing tools, as well as training and support exclusively designed for credit unions.  Through this partnership, we provide web-based, competitive auction tools that empower credit unions to quickly remarket repossessions to their members and get prices close to fair market value.

TitleAuctions provides a comprehensive set of web-based software tools that will enable you to conduct efficient, profitable competitive-bid auctions on your own credit union web site. Benefits include:

• Faster Sales Cycles. Everyday that repossessed collateral remains unsold its value depreciates. A competitive-bid auction can dramatically accelerate the speed with which you sell your collateral, protecting you from further collateral depreciation.
• Higher Sale Prices. Our credit unions tell us they’re earning higher sale prices for their repos than wholesale auctions typically deliver – as much as $2,000 - $3,000 more in some cases. You recover more of your outstanding loan balance, benefiting both your credit union and its members.
• Loan Retention. When you sell your repo through your own competitive bid auction page, you have an opportunity to write the loan on the collateral. Our credit unions tell us they’re writing loans on 50 percent of the collateral they auction off.
• Additional Members. Your members will tell their family, neighbors, friends and co-workers about the fairly priced vehicles they see on your competitive-bid auction page. That word-of mouth will draw additional member applications.
• Increased Staff Productivity. Chances are that selected members of your staff spend at least part of their day talking with members about repos for sale. With your own competitive-bid auction page on your Web site, members interact with the software and not with your staff. One credit union collections manager told us he was saving 10 hours every week that he used to spend answering member questions and taking member bids.
