According to EstateSale.Net "An Estate Sale, also called a Tag Sale in some parts of the country, is a way of liquidating the belongings of a family or estate. These are usually much more than garage or yard sales. They are used when someone is in need of a way to sell items due to downsizing, moving, divorce, bankruptcy, or death. The public is invited into the home and given the opportunity to purchase any item that is priced for sale. At times there are items that are not for sale because the family has decided to keep them or new owners of the house have made them part of a contract to buy the house. Estate Auctions are where everything is auctioned instead of being marked with a selling price." Reference: EstateSale.NET. (2023, February 15). What is an estate sale. EstateSales.NET.

If you have items that are desirable and contain value, you qualify for an auction regardless of the location. There are several factors that we look at when placing an item into an auction. - Location Some estates are located in neighborhoods with HOAs that prevent an estate sale from being conducted. This happens for many reasons with the largest reason being access to public officials during an emergency such as (FIRE, EMT, or POLICE). Gated communities that require an access code also prohibit Estate Sales or any other in-person events. Estates that are affected by these circumstances are required to be executed through an online sales channel. - Value Any items placed into an auction must contain a value that exceeds $25.00 USD. Any individual items that can be grouped together will be placed into an auction lot of "x" amount for the collected value of $25.00 USD. For example: LOT OF 15 Hammers - Value: $25.00 USD | LOT OF 5 Cuisinart Knifes - Value: $25.00 - Desirability Any items we place into auction we consider how many participants may be interested in bidding. There are some items that contain value but have a small audience. The last thing you want to do is place an item in an auction and have only 1-3 bidders placing bids. The sales results will be considerably low. If you have items that are desirable and contain value, we are able to assist you regardless of the location.

The process takes a total of 21 days with the auction beginning on the 7th day and ending on the 14th day. The following days are spent executing sales orders (collecting payments, scheduling pick up times and allowing 2-4 business days for debit/credit card transactions to clear. You are provided a check within 7 days of your event closing.
