The eight-round Battle of the Bids game launched April 11 as a way for commercial real estate professionals to engage with the Ten-X platform in a unique way while having the opportunity to earn cash prizes. Battle of the Bids allows commercial real estate professionals to bet on Ten-X’s real estate auctions. Participants select up to ten properties in each round and bet what they think each will sell for — the closer each bet is to the winning bid amount at the end of the auction, the more points they earn. In each of eight rounds, over 500 winners will claim prizes ranging from $100 to $100,000. The Battle of the Bids player that accumulates the most points throughout all rounds will become the grand prize winner and win $1 million, plus an additional $100,000 to donate to a charity of their choice.
