California's large federal presence, extensive state property holdings, and active GSA regional office make it a consistent source for real estate auctions. The state regularly lists surplus properties from the Department of Defense, Department of Veterans Affairs, and state agencies, creating opportunities to bid on residential, commercial, and land parcels. Whether you're looking in urban centers like Los Angeles and San Francisco or rural areas, government auctions offer properties that rarely appear on standard real estate markets.
Government agencies in California auction off residential homes, vacant land, commercial buildings, and multi-unit properties. Common sources include surplus military base properties, foreclosed homes from VA loans, and state-owned parcels. The specific inventory changes regularly, so checking auction platforms weekly helps you find newly listed properties in your target area.
Create accounts on the auction platforms that list California properties, such as GSA Auctions, GovDeals, GovPlanet, and PublicSurplus. Each platform has different bidding rules and registration requirements. Most require you to verify your identity and understand the terms before placing bids. Some auctions require a deposit or proof of funds before bidding begins.
Properties sold as-is without inspections or warranties, so review all available documentation and photos carefully. Closing timelines are typically faster than traditional sales, often 30-60 days. You'll need to secure financing or have cash ready quickly. Budget for potential repairs and back property taxes. Verify property condition, liens, and local zoning restrictions before bidding.
