Lyn Liechty Auctions was started in 1983 and built from the ground up to a point where it is one of the leading auction services in the Adrian, Mi. area.  Lyn does many charity auctions, estate, household, antique and real estate auctions throughout Southeastern Michigan and Northwestern Ohio. He has demonstrated an uncanny ability to obtain and successfully conduct unusual and unique auctions that have generated featured stories in area papers such as the Adrian Telegram, Toledo Blade, Stateline Observer and the Auction Exchange and Collector news. He has conducted numerous lake-cottage salvage auctions, salvage of historic Victorian homes and conducted an auction on the front lawn of a Victorian home, which featured a combination fashion show and auction to successfully auction off never worn vintage wedding dresses, some of which dated back to the 1920's. 

Lyn is a graduate of auction school at Northwest Technical College in Archbold, Ohio, has an Associates in Business Management from Jackson Business University in Jackson, Mi. and holds a BS in Accounting from Siena Heights University in Adrian, Mi. He is also a licensed real estate sales agent in the State of Michigan. He has 14 years of military service in the U.S. Navy, both active and reserve, and retired from a 25-year career with the Dept. of Social Services in 1996. Lyn now operates Lyn Liechty Auctions, The R.E.A.L. Auction Co. full time. He has had several articles published in the Auction Exchange, National Auctioneer's Association Magazine, and Auction World.

Lyn resides at 324 Madison St. Adrian, Mi. with his wife Rebecca Fox, who is always introduced to auction crowds as the "Greatest Auction Clerk" in the world! Together they have three daughters, three stepsons, and six grandchildren, five boys and two girls. When they aren't busy with auctions, they are very busy with children! All three daughters are trained as cashiers, and other family members work as ring people. The oldest grandson makes a fine runner for the clerking sheets. Lyn Liechty Auctions is very much a family affair!
