# Building Auctions
In the dynamic and fast-paced world of business, the ability to pivot and seek out new opportunities is essential for success. The bigger the company, the harder and more costly it is for big changes. **Building Auctions**, allow companies to experiment or change industries more conveniently.

- Bids are Hidden
- Auctions last for 24 hours.
- Minimum bid is scrap value of the building (see encyclopedia).
-
- It costs Sim Boosts to add more than one building to be auctioned at a time (It is free to send one (1) building to auction). It costs fifteen (15) Sim Boosts for the second building sent to auction, and thirty (30) Sim Boosts for each additional building sent to Auction.
---
#### **Buyer**
- Buyers can bid on any number of Buildings.
- Buyers do **not** need an empty building slot to bid or win an auction.
- Bid(s) are resolved when auction ends. Bids can be taken down at any time during the auction.
- Bid(s) are disqualified if there is not enough money at the end of the auction.
- All information will be provided on each Building up for auction. (Level, Type, Rating, Seating, Abundance, Robots, and Minimum Bid.)
- Buyers can purchase **Similar Auction** information on past auctions for 10 Sim Boosts. The purchase lasts 24 hours and is per building type (buying Similar Auction for restaurants means you have the information shown for recent restaurant auctions).
- The Personal Assistant (PA) acts as your auction agent. He/she automatically bids on your behalf up to the maximum bid you set.
- The auction winner, only pays the amount of the 2nd highest bid: [Vickrey Auction](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vickrey_auction) (wiki link)
