Sec. 102-38.220  What must we do when the highest bids received have 
the same bid amount?

    When the highest bids received have the same bid amount, you must 
consider other factors of the sale (e.g., timely removal of the 
property, terms of payment, etc.) that would make one offer more 
advantageous to the Government. However, if you are unable to make a 
determination based on available information, and the Government has an 
acceptable offer, you may re-offer the property for sale, or you may 
utilize random tiebreakers to avoid the expense of reselling the 
property.
