Benefits of using an Estate Sale service
​
While there are some similarities between conducting an estate sale and holding a garage sale, there are a myriad of differences that you should be aware of. Firstly, estate sales generally encompass a broader variety of items (and oftentimes more valuable) and operate on a much larger scale. Here are some of the benefits of hiring an estate sale service:
​
​Saves you and other family members time and energy
Estate sale professionals manage the entire process from beginning to end (i.e., sorting, inventorying, advertising, sale set-up and management, and after-sale accounting) so you and your other family members can focus on other important matters.
Reduces stress
Oftentimes, the emotional impact and burden of liquidating a loved one's assets, or even your own, can be overwhelming. Estate sales professionals are trained to manage your sales with objectivity, integrity and professionalism which can help alleviate your and your family's stress.
Increases revenue
Estate sales professionals will identify and research more valuable items and collections to ensure your items are priced accordingly and will help target the right potential buyers through targeted advertising, personal contacts, and sometimes even special sales events.
Boosts visibility
By marketing and advertising your sale, estate sales professionals attract as many buyers as possible.
Adds credibility
Because they operate with a comprehensive process, estate sales professionals bring a higher level of validity and perceived value than family-run garage sales, which, in turn, attracts a higher volume and more targeted group of customers to your sale. It is not uncommon for dozens of customers to wait in line before a sale begins!
The Bottom Line...
Seeking help from estate sales professionals saves you and your family members time, stress, and worry. There is no upfront cost to you because costs are paid from sale proceeds and the sale is managed for you from start to finish so in the end, all you need to do is collect your check!
