Our Vision

Our Expertise

Matthew Kruse, editor of the Fantasy Draft Auctioneer, was licensed as an auctioneer in 1993, the year after he started playing fantasy football in 1992. He is a third generation auctioneer, co-owner of the Reppert School of Auctioneering, a life member of the National Auction Association, and has worked auctions in over 30 states and in Canada. He is also a licensed real estate broker and appraiser. Matthew's father Dennis, and brothers John, Tim and Daniel, as well as his son Michael, are also licensed auctioneers, and his son Caleb has also gone through auction school. Matthew's network through auction school and auctioneer associations allows him to have relationships with auctioneers in many areas across the country, and can help you find an auctioneer to take your fantasy auction draft to the next level.
