Ben and Kim Ladage started Ben Ladage Auctions in 2010 after Ben attended the Missouri Auction School. “Over the next few years, I conducted a handful of live auctions while working for other local auctioneers,” he said. Ladage became a full-time auctioneer in 2016 after purchasing a building in Auburn. “As the business grew, we expanded into online auctions as well, and today we conduct around 80 auctions a year.”
