The day of the appointment, we will show up on time, as scheduled. We will talk with you about the home, the circumstances regarding the sale, and how quickly the family is needing them home to be emptied. We will also walk through the home with the family and discuss items that will be taken out or that the family wishes to keep. 

Once we have identified the items that will be included in the estate sales, we will begin to do a brief appraisal process to get a very broad estimate of what the estate sale could potentially bring. We will discuss dates that are available and how quickly we can get the sale scheduled. We will also walk the family through exactly how the sale process goes and what they can expect from our estate sale management team once the sale process starts. 

After talking through all of the details of the sale with the estate liquidator and identifying a rough estimate of what the sale could bring in, the family can sign a contract and secure a date on our estate sale calendar. From here, we take over and get started!

During this process, the family has removed all items that they wish to keep from the home, or we have found a secure location that we can move them to where customers do not have access to them (i.e. a locked room). At this point, our team comes in and begins to move all items out of the attic, basement, or garage. We will stage the furniture and move in tables for extra display spaces. We begin to place things in a very eye-catching and appealing way to lure in potential shoppers while we are advertising. Glassware, flatware, China, and other items that need cleaning will be washed and cleaned appropriately. 

Once we have all items unboxed, cleaned, and placed around the home, we will begin to price everything. All items will have a clearly marked price that is easy for customers to find. 

Any items that appear to be of high value, such as jewelry or artwork, we will work with our excellent network of appraisals so that we know the true value of the item. This will then be priced according to the appraisal. Our goal is to always ensure that we are getting the absolute most that we can for each family during an estate sale. 

Once all items are setup and priced, we will begin to take high-quality photos and walk-through videos for marketing and advertising purposes. We post every sale on Estatesales.net, Facebook and Facebook Marketplace, Instagram, TikTok and other social media platforms. We also post every sale on our website and send out an email blast to everyone on our emailing list with a description and photos of the sale. 

All of our sales run Thursday through Saturday starting at 9 AM. We kickoff each sale day with a walk-through video and give specific instructions regarding the sale, if there are any. Our first day is a full price sale and is typically the busiest traffic day. Day 2 is 25% off all items and Day 3 is 50% off. By this point, most items will have sold and will have been moved out of the home. 

After the sale is over, there will always be items left over. Typically, most families prefer to have the remaining items sold to a "cleanout crew" or to be donated to a local charity. This is 100% up to the family and varies by each sale. Once arrangements are made and the remaining items are removed, our crew will broom sweep and vacuum every room, leaving the family with an empty, clean home that is ready for whatever is next. 

Within 14 days of sale completion, we will sit down with the family and discuss how the estate sale went in detail. We will show reporting for the entire sale, including a transaction history. At this time, we will give the family a check for the proceeds from the sale and we will conclude the estate sale process!
