Subject: Real Auction Contract
Background
Real Auction has been the county vendor for our online tax lien sales since 2006.
Initially there were three vendors bidding for this work. One has since gone out of
business. It was the opinion of our ACS representative at the time that Real Auction was
the only competitor who could do a proper job of handling the County's online tax lien
sale. Denver did an RFP at the time and Real Auction was the designed winner. Weld
County then added on to that bid to select Real Auction.
The contract has since expired and needs to be renewed.
Real Auction handles all but two of the county's who do online auctions of tax liens in
Colorado. The fee they charge by statute is passed straight through to the tax lien buyer
and ultimately paid off by the redemption of the tax lien if there is redemption.
Our Eagle Treasurer software was built to interface with this product and selecting any
other vendor would require a rewrite of that interface which would be costly to the
county.
Furthermore we remain happy with this vendor and their pricing has remained
competitive.
Therefore we ask the BOCC to approve this vendor to do our 2012 online tax sale.
2012-2415
Memorandum Concerning
Agreement with Realauction.com, Inc. for 2012 Tax Lien Auction
This year's online tax lien certificate auction will commence October 8, 2012. The bidders will
be allowed to submit bids on that date. The actual preparations for the auction begin in
September when the Treasurer's Office sends the files to the vendor.
It is the intention of the Treasurer's Office to submit the Attached Agreement to the Board of
County Commissioners for its approval on Monday, September 10, 2012.
This vendor has provided its on-line auction services to Weld County for a number of years, as
outlined in the Memorandum written by Weld County Treasurer, John Lefebvre.
Weld County has successfully conducted its online auction of tax liens utilizing the services of
this vendor since 2006.
There is no cost to the County using the services of Realauction.com, Inc., as all expenses are
passed to the purchasers of the tax liens.
Please advise Renee Fielder if a work session is required prior to the presentation of this
Agreement to the Board on September 10, 2012.

third parties, or permit other third parties to access the data in the format
and compilation created by Contractor.

minimum bids as part of the Web Site's proxy bidding feature, Contractor will
be deemed the agent of such bidders in so far as bidders have provided such

section "Contractor's Confidential Information"). County agrees to hold all
such Contractor's Confidential Information in strictest confidence and take
such steps as are reasonably necessary to protect the confidentiality of the
Contractor's Confidential Information and other materials designated by

refraining from taking any action in derogation of Contractor's ownership
rights and taking actions similar to those taken by County with respect to
protecting other third party confidential information in its possession. County
