For Your Free Consultation
You may be considering conducting your own sale, or are unsure if you need a professional estate liquidation service. We will gladly provide a free consultation and help you determine if a professional estate sale is the appropriate course of action. This can sometimes be a very difficult decision and we will help make the process as pleasant and professional as possible. A professional estate liquidator has a thorough knowledge of estate contents and will ensure your items are properly identified and priced, thus avoiding costly mistakes by less experienced sellers.
Our estate liquidation services include:
- Free consultation
- Complete clean-out of attics and out buildings
- Appraisal and pricing of every item in the sale
- Neat and organized set-up of the sale for best display
- Advertising in the most appropriate newspaper as well as on our website prior to and during the sale
- Highly-visible street signage
- Conduct the sale (usually two to three days) with experienced, friendly sales staff
- Funding and documentation of proceeds typically within 10 days from the last day of the sale
- Complete clean-up of the premises following the sale
- No hidden costs. Fees are based on commission and are agreed upon in advance in a written contract.
Why use a professional Estate Liquidation Service?
Consider this:
- Time - it typically takes two weeks or longer full-time to organize a successful sale
- Pricing - only an experienced professional has the required knowledge to research and price your entire vintage estate
- Equipment & Supplies - A professional already has the necessary supplies such as tables, display cases, price stickers, receipts, tax I.D. forms, cleaning supplies, cash box, poster board, price reference books, etc.
- Sales Staff - A typical sale will need 3-4 sales associates
- Record-Keeping - A complete accounting of the sale will be done, and sales tax is collected at the sale
Tips/Suggestions
- First and Foremost: DON'T THROW ANYTHING AWAY! Let a professional determine if an item has value. We have countless stories of items about to be tossed that have brought good money at the sale.
- Don't assume that your property is not valuable enough to have an estate sale. There can be very good money in general household goods, appliances, garage contents, etc. You will be amazed at what people want to buy. Let us provide a free evaluation to be sure.
- Don't have a garage sale to clear out a few items before the estate sale. The more items you have to include in the estate sale the better the attendance will be. Also, you will ensure that you get top dollar for all your items if they are sold by a professional estate liquidator.
