You call Mike and he comes out to your home so he can see the best way to help you. It's completely free with no obligations. *NO UPFRONT COST EVER!
At this time Mike determines if it can be an on site sale, off site sale, auction or buyout. He then assess the cost for us to do the sale for you and then leaves you with a contract to look over.

Set up-
If your sale is on-site. We have a scheduled start date where we begin the estate sale process. It takes us about a week from start to finish, depending on the extensiveness of the estate.
Move-
If your sale is off-site we come to your home and pack, box up & move everything that you need us to sell. There are no additional fees for this, this cost is included in our commission price.
#4 Our process
#4 Our process
Our process is unique, no one else puts the time in to clean, organize, display and de-junk a sale like we do. All items are displayed in categories like kitchen, tools, books etc. We make it clean and organized for our customers to find things easily. All items are on linen tablecloths and off the floor for easy viewing.
*We want the estate to have dignity. It's important to us.

GRAND FINALE *** AUCTION****

#7 Clean up

We clean up everything after the sale, usually the last day of the sale we are out but occasionally the day after. If we used the home to have an on-site sale, then we sweep & mop & vacuum etc. We make it look as if we were never there.
*YOU WILL NEVER SEE PILES OF STUFF LEFT THAT DIDN'T SELL AT OUR SALES.

Realtors
We often work with realtors and hand out flyers about the house when it's listed for sale. You would not believe how many customers ask if the home is available while they look.
It's better than an open house with many more potential buyers. We even had one estate sale that the customer of our sale saw the house, approached the realtor and went into closing before the sale was over.
