Repossessed
Collateral will be advertised on the Credit Union website for a
period of 2 weeks prior to the date of bid submission deadline.
Any interested member, employee, board member or supervisory committee
member may submit a sealed bid to our Credit Union attorney by the
appropriate date. The CU attorney will then open the bids and, after
discussion with the CEO, make a decision on who is awarded the repossessed
collateral. (If the CEO is involved in making a bid, then the decision
would go to the Treasurer of the CU Board of Directors.)
If there is
a tie bid, then those parties would be notified of the tie and asked
to submit another bid.
Our CU attorney,
their staff and immediate family members are not allowed to participate
in this program.
The Credit Union
will have the right to accept any bid it deems the best and can
reject all bids. The Credit Union can also require cash bids, bids
with Credit Union financing or a combination. The Credit Union attorney
and the CEO will have the authority to decide which is better for
the Credit Union. The Credit Union may also decide to publish a
minimum bid and or terms of financing.
In the event
the Credit Union does not receive any bids, any bids greater than
the Credit Union minimum bid or any acceptable bids, the Credit
Union, after consultation with the Credit Union's attorney, may
schedule another auction with the same or different minimum bid,
list real property with a Real Estate Agent, negotiate with interested
parties, or determine the best path forward for the Credit Union.
In the event
a high bidder withdraws its bid or does not complete the purchase,
the Credit Union will schedule another sale period unless the next
highest bidder is very close to the highest bidder. Decisions will
be determined by the Credit Union CEO.
