Services A partial listing of our services: Where to start = Free Consultation: We will visit with the client to discuss the most profitable options. We will formulate a tailored solution that meets the client’s specific needs. Scenario 1: A loved one passes away and you need to liquidate the contents of his or her home. Solution = Estate Sale: After the consultation, and signing of the contract agreement, we will set up an Estate Sale in the time allotted and liquidate the contents of the home. We will handle the sale from initial planning and coordination to organization and sale. Scenario 2: You or a loved one is downsizing and need to sell the items that will not be going with you to your new home. Solution = Moving Sale: Once you have moved, we will conduct a sale from start to finish while you get settled into your new home. Scenario 3: You or a loved one needs the contents of a home cleared in a short amount of time, perhaps only a day, in order to go to settlement or put a home on the market. Solution = Clean Out: We will clear the entire contents of the home and distribute items to the appropriate places given the time permitted. You will receive a tax deductible receipt for donated items. Scenario 4: You have a small amount of valuables that you would like to sell, as little as one item or as much as a house full, that you would like sold without an on-site sale. Solution = Consignment: After an initial consultation, we will provide a contract detailing the terms and agreements of consignment and arrange pick up or delivery of items to be consigned at the next scheduled sale or through an outside source. Scenario 5: You are moving across the continent or across the ocean. We’ve done them both. Solution = Moving Sale and Clean Out: Once you have moved, we will conduct a sale from start to finish while you get settled into your new home and then take care of clearing the remaining contents of the home and distribute items to the appropriate places given the time permitted. You will receive a tax deductible receipt for donated items. &#

Amenities
“If you build it, (they) will come.” Probably one of the most misquoted movie lines in recent years. Also, sadly, this is not true. Why would you want to hire a professional? One major point is that just simply putting a sign in the yard will not clear out the house. And especially will not earn you the greatest return. We have a confidential email list in the thousands, we have a significant web-based presence utilizing EstatesSales.Net, of course, as well as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Linked-In, etc., with more coming as soon as they’re available for use. We will evaluate, organize, clean (when necessary), and display your home’s treasures in a visually appealing manner, and price all items at the highest competitive price possible, always with the thought in mind that all items need to sell within the allotted amount of time. Market value of anything has many different determining factors. Assessing the "value" of something usually involves researching the items themselves and then directly marketing to target groups that would be most interested in the items. Having a desirable setting that customers wish to visit and presenting both it and the contents in a beguiling and appealing way are key to attracting the largest pool of shoppers and ensuring the maximum number of buyers arrives, shops, purchases, and helps you achieve your goals.
