Mike Brandly, Auctioneer Blog @mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com@mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com ·You need MLS? You don’t.
Welcome to 2026, when the MLS finally reveals itself for what it really is: a nostalgia club that loves charging dues while pretending it matters. Joining the National Association of Realtors costs about $200 a year, not terrible on its own. But local boards have perfected hidden fees, insisting you join the state association and the local board just to access the MLS. Annual dues easily top $1,000, a lot for a system buyers barely notice. Auctioneers and brokers who actually sell property […]https://mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com/2025/11/22/you-need-mls-you-dont/

Mike Brandly, Auctioneer Blog @mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com@mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com ·Auctioneers giving up NAR membership?
The announcement that starting January 1, 2026, NAR membership will no longer be required for MLS access arrived with loud fanfare, as if the industry had discovered fire. In reality, it feels more like a last minute attempt to slow the legal bleeding after already owing at least $418 million. Litigation squeezed hard, and suddenly leadership found courage that had been missing for several decades. For years, agents were trained to believe that NAR membership was the sacred key to the MLS, a […]https://mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com/2025/11/20/auctioneers-giving-up-nar-membership/

Mike Brandly, Auctioneer Blog @mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com@mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com ·Can anyone believe anything?
In the auction world and beyond, trust is essential. Bidders rely on an auctioneer’s statements, and consumers navigate news and social media, yet the question remains: can anyone believe anything anymore? Auctioneers frequently use disclaimers, making it hard to know what is reliable. While I may have criticized this in the past, the ongoing spread of misinformation makes revisiting the topic important.

Mike Brandly, Auctioneer Blog @mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com@mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com ·Auctioneers: AI legal considerations
Artificial intelligence is now commonly used in the auction industry to draft item descriptions, organize catalog data, and speed up listing production. Auctioneers increasingly rely on these tools to improve efficiency and reduce writing time. From an SEO and operational standpoint, this supports scale, but it also raises auction AI description legal risk concerns. Despite the technology, legal responsibility does not shift to AI systems. Auction descriptions are treated as representations […]https://mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com/2025/10/27/auctioneers-ai-legal-considerations/

Mike Brandly, Auctioneer Blog @mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com@mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com ·What if an auctioneer defies a court order?
When an auctioneer ignores a court order, it is more than an act of defiance. It can bring serious legal consequences that damage both business operations and personal reputation, along with future licensing or employment opportunities. Court orders are not suggestions; they are legally binding directives issued by a judge, and failure to comply can lead to contempt charges, fines, or even jail time. A common example is when a court issues an injunction to stop an auction due to an ownership […]https://mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com/2025/05/31/what-if-an-auctioneer-defies-a-court-order/

Buyer’s premiums have become a standard part of auctions around the world.

Yes, I've posted about last week's World #Livestock #Auctioneer Championship qualifier at length. It was a nice experience, with an opportunity to see talented auctioneers perform their craft. Among the contestants I visited with was Northern #Missouri's Chris Arnaman, who grew up in the industry and started competing nearly 30 years ago.

It’s already a full house for today’s World #Livestock #Auctioneer Championship qualifier in Windsor, #Missouri! 45 auctioneers, including two from Canada, are vying for ten spots in the semis set for June in Florida.
Each auctioneer will sell eight lots in a ten-minute span. This could be a long day; we might not have our top ten until at least 9p.
