Mason City, IA

Over the weekend I had the opportunity to sell with the Behr Auction Company at public auction in Mason City Iowa. We were selling commercial real estate as well as the building contents. With 5 auctioneers including myself we were able to complete the sale in exactly 5 hours with two selling rings. The Behr family name is synonymous with auctions in Iowa. Behr Auction Company has conducted thousands of auctions in over 35 years since it began in 1971. Since that time it has grown into a multi-faceted/full service Auction Company now specializing in Iowa Real Estate Auctions including farmland, homes, acreages, and commercial real estate. They also conduct estate auctions.

Owned by brothers Paul C. Behr and Dennis Behr you'll also find many family members working behind the scenes and on auction day. Cory and Dennis run the day to day operations of the company. In my photo above you can see Ed Behr calling bids, while Cory Behr (Dennis's son) on the ground catching bids, while Cory's sister is acting as the clerk in the trailer. If you could look around you'd also see Dennis Behr and his wife Jane working, and Cory's wife Jennifer Behr. The Behr family runs a highly professional auction business and they are the best of the best in Northern Iowa. Their farmland sales have achieved record prices

Paul C. Behr is a 3 time world champion auctioneer and President of the World Wide College of Auctioneering in Mason City Iowa while Dennis Behr is one of the lead instructors at the college.

The opportunity to come help the out for the day was an exciting day and certainly one I was able to take away a few good lessons from. My most sincere thanks to the Behr family for their invitation to come help out on sale day.
