Estate Sales

Contact us for a no-cost assessment of your specific sale requirements!

There are times when in-home sales can be beneficial to our clients, and therefore we do conduct a limited number of in-home sales each year. We are happy to discuss with you whether this is the right option for your collection.

If an in-home sale is warranted, we will typically:

• Place items from the home that will benefit from being sold at public auction in one of our Online Cataloged Auctions.
• Stage the remainder of the items and prep for sale.
• Photograph (compare the quality of our photography to everyone’s) and advertise the items.
• Price all the items and research pricing as necessary. Keep in mind the many thousands of antique and household items that we sell each year, so we have a very good idea of current market values.
• Conduct the sale with our full Sales Team, not just the cashiers that you will find at many sales, we really do work to promote and sell your items while providing exceptional customer service. In addition, we also provide staff to assist in loading larger items and even help to facilitate delivery of large items to the new owners. This is an unusual service, rarely provided by other Estate Service companies.
• We provide a summary of the items sold with full payment quickly upon the sales completion.
• We will also clean up and remove any unsold items for donation as indicated prior to the sale.
