"When a player lands on a piece of property and decides not to buy it, this property is then automatically auctioned off. The banker conducts the auction and the money received goes to the bank. Bidding for a piece of property may begin at any price. It does not begin at the property's original value as some believe. The player who passed the property is allowed to bid. Sometimes players let a piece of property they landed on go to auction in hopes of buying that property at a reduced price. Doing this is very rarely a good idea. Auctioned property usually ends up going for a lot more than the original price. Don’t get caught up in a bidding war and pay too much for a little especially if you just want the property to complete a color group. You should consider paying good money for a piece of property if it will prevent an opponent from gaining control of a color group. The only time you should let a piece of property go up for auction is when you cannot afford to buy it. "
