Harcourt's Jock Uebergang said the opening bid for the vacant site on the corner of Darlot and Wilson Streets was $500,000.
"Potential buyers are a mix of in and out-of-towners," he said.
"We are finding things similar to other agents in town at the moment, in that commercial real estate is flat and there is a consolidation of businesses in Horsham CBD.
