Barliant Auctions is the sister company of Barliant & Co. which, since 1937, has been the innovator and leader in the purchase and sale of equipment for the food processing industries. We are a full-service general appraisal, auction and asset recovery firm and are providers of the following services.

Appraisals: Barliant Auctions' integrity, confidentiality, organizational structure, widely experienced personnel, broad commercial network and timely performance make our appraisal services absolutely unequalled. Our clients include healthy companies in need of asset valuations for insurance or financial purposes, leasing companies, bank loan departments, bankruptcy attorneys and trustees, investment firms and venture capitalists as well as start-up companies. We maintain daily person-to-person contacts across a broad range of industries and are, therefore, able to value a wide variety of commercial, industrial and personal assets.

Auctions and Liquidations: Barliant Auctions has achieved an unparalleled record for conducting the most ethical and profitable auction and liquidation sales in partnership with our clients. Our organization is structured to act quickly and to provide complete service in virtually any situation. Barliant Auctions employs a professional team of specialists and offers the facilities, logistics and sales techniques to satisfy the asset conversion needs of attorneys, trustees, bankers and cash-distressed companies. These specialists are capable in all the general commercial and industrial areas including the food, metalworking, woodworking, trade contracting and construction fields. Following a detailed inventory and valuation of assets, we consider the various methods of asset conversion and then offer a complete financial and marketing plan tailored to the needs of the particular situation. We then coordinate every aspect of the asset conversion effort.

For decades the Barliant name has been synonymous with ethical and orderly liquidation sales of commercial and industrial assets. Since 1985, Barliant Auctions has led the way in making the auction sale the preferred method of liquidating assets. We use computer database technology to accomplish timely and accurate appraisals, to target qualified domestic and foreign buyers, to prepare brochures and media advertising as well as organizing the buyers and sellers from start to finish at the auction sale. Our company pioneered the video auction method and it has not only been the popular choice with buyers but also has consistently netted a greater return to our clients.

Banks, companies and business people have come to realize the power of an auction sale to establish fair market value in the conversion of property to cash. The open public auction is now well-recognized as being the only method which brings buyers and the seller together into a competitive situation where the current market value is established. The auction provides the most convenient, efficient and expedient means to liquidate capital investments, settle foreclosures, and reduce overhead.

Direct Purchases: Some situations warrant the direct purchase of assets. Sometimes a group of assets is not large enough to support a liquidation or auction sale. Sometimes speed of conversion is crucial. Whatever may be the individual case, Barliant Auctions possesses the financial resources to offer a fair value for any assets from single items to estates, lines of business and complete plants.

If you, or someone you know, are in need of any of these services, please call Barliant Auctions in complete confidentiality. We will provide professional, financial and personal references upon request. Thanks for your consideration. We look forward to working with you.
