The word real estate refers to landed properties, i.e., land and/ or buildings. By real estate auction we mean sale of landed properties by inviting people and offering to them to buy the property. The property and kept up for sale, people bid for it and the highest bidder takes the property. There is always a minimum bid from which the authorities like to begin.
The real estate auction is generally organized by professionals in this field who may be real estate agents who help the process of sale/purchase of properties and earn commission. Here we can call them auctioneers. These people, when contacted by someone who wishes to sell his/her land organize an auction and the interested parties participate in it. Once the auction is organized people gather and bid for the property. This process is called a real estate auction.
