BELIZE BANK, NOVELO'S PROPERTIES AUCTION A BIG FLOP! AUCTIONEER DID NOT EVEN SHOW UP.

BELIZE BANK FORECLOSURE AUCTION ON TUESDAY AUGUST 7th, 2012 WAS A BIG FLOP!

  About 16 people showed up for the much advertised foreclosures of the Novelo brothers properties in different Western Belize areas.  The auction was spread across two pages of last weekend newspaper.  Must have cost the Belize Bank $2000 in advertising cost.  Kevin Castillo the advertised AUCTIONEER never showed up.  No tables or chairs, or anything in the Belize Bank parking lot.  The TWIN TOWNS was very busy and traffic heavy and all the stores and post office were humming with business, country people and tourists. People came and went, and hung around, but we were among the last to give up, and left about 5 mins. to 11 a.m. with no auctioneer in sight.  The auction was scheduled according to the newspaper for 10:30 a.m.  We got there about 10:15 a.m.  The country was supposed to be brushed by a tropical wave, or storm, but was destined to mostly rain in Mexico, NORTH of our country.  The bank itself had closed for some strange reason.  Must have been the ONLY business in San Ignacio Town that was closed.
  Guess Kevin Castillo owes the Belize Bank for losing it's advertising costs for an auction that failed to materialize? We called the Auction telephone number, but the lady knew nothing she said.  Referred us to another number, but that one never got answered.  After several tries, everybody left to tend to town business elsewhere.
