Estate sales
For our clients, we will keep you informed every step of the way, we are here to serve you!
1. Onsite sale, we will provide the staff, setup, tables, tents, pricing, security and even clean up after your sale so that a home is ready for the next owner.
2. Online sales for items that may be unique and are best marketed to a world wide audience to achieve the best return.
3. Complete cleanout. We will purchase estates, moving the personal property to a different location to conduct a sale. This is often the choice of a family who does not want visitors at their home, the location is not appropriate for a sale, they do not want their family name associated with a sale or just a time for personal privacy.
Our sales are like no other, we are family owned and operated, now with four generations associated with the business. We have many connections through antique dealers, collectors and resale businesses that bring high returns for your items. We have customers in several states and have shipped items to several foreign countries.
In addition, we have a unique staff from a strong faith based community, with professional counseling skills that provides a sensitive, caring environment to manage the sale of loved ones personal property.

What should you do?
Never sell or throw away anything.......... we have dug $1000's of dollars from dumpsters when we have arrived at estates and if you offer something for sale, the good stuff goes first and cheap.
1. Take what you want to keep or clearly mark it to move.
2. Think about your family, what keepsakes might they want to have as family heirlooms, then label it for them or give it to them.
3. Call today for a free consultation. We will provide advise on how to best market your goods, even if it is not with us.
After we decide if a sale would be appropriate, and what kind of sale this may be, we will begin by setting a date, organizing, cleaning, researching, pricing, staging, advertising and finally selling your property. Some sales can be set up in a few days, other may take a few weeks, this is always discussed in our initial consultation.
We will provide you with an upfront estimate of all expenses related to your sale, afterwards you will receive an itemized accounting of all expenses and payment to you within two days of your sale.

Appraisals
As an auction professional, appraisals can be offered for a variety of reasons. Most appraisals are needed for insurance or replacement value or they are for a market value which is the price realized if the item were to be sold today.
Our service provides written documentation of your items, resources utilized and the purpose of the appraisal. Rates for such work are based upon the items presented, amount of research needed and are very competitive.

Life Changes
If you are moving to a new home, downsizing, marriage or divorce, we may be able to help you market the items you no longer need. It may be worth a phone call to see.
