A: While, as the first answer instructs, contacting the bankruptcy trustee is a good idea (trustees looking to sell estate assets always want to maximize sale prices, and that comes from drawing in more prospective purchasers), your question seems to suggest that there are multiple cases/trustees in the Austin district in which assets are being, or may be, offered for sale. I recommend enrolling in the Pacer system (google it, it's readily accessible), which gives you access to all the filings (and inventories of assets) for all pending bankruptcy cases.
