While an interesting provenance or owner is not unusual for Platinum Luxury auctions, it is rare to have three such properties at the same time. This is the first time the company’s founder and president, Traor Lesnock, has witnessed this in his 16 years in the industry, and he said: “It will likely never happen again.”

All three are great features, but this is the only feature they have in common. “They’re all different from that place and they’re all kind of dramatically different,” Lesnock said.

The third property, located in southwest Atlanta, will be auctioned off on Friday. It was built and owned by celebrity and entertainment mogul Tyler Perry until 2018, when he sold it to the current owner, a limited liability company, for $2.19 million, according to Property Shark records. .

While a connection to celebrities or the entertainment industry “is certainly beneficial for things like publicity, exposure, etc. – for obvious reasons – whether that actually translates into a price is not something I think we’ll ultimately see,” Lesnock said. “I haven’t seen yet.” A wealthy buyer is willing to make a significant sacrifice in functionality just because so-and-so lived there before.”

In all three cases, the property owners turned to auctions in order to speed up the sale, Lesnock said.

“The common denominator is that the property didn’t work out using the traditional brokerage method and (the owners) wanted to try something a little more aggressive and they wanted speed,” Lesnock said.

He added that the speed of the auction, coupled with the “absoluteness” of the sale, “has tremendous appeal for these sellers.”
