Whether "downsizing" or completely
liquidating, we offer a no fee/no
obligation courtesy house call
service. We will schedule an
appointment to meet with you at a
convenient time to evaluate the
estate contents and discuss
purchase options. We have found
that our "direct purchase" is
often a convenient and timely
method of liquidating the
contents.
In general when dealing with an
estate sale or auction company, on
site sale commission fees are in
the 25% range, with a "lead time"
of two to three weeks to set up,
advertise and conduct an on site
sale. After the sale, a check is
written for the sale proceeds,
minus the commission fee. Not the
quickest most reliable way to
sell, also, you may not end up
with the price you would like.
With the direct purchase option,
we pay a lump sum on the spot
factoring our labor costs, as well
as making it so that there is no
waiting period for you. In a
timely manner we remove all
contents as agreed, and leave the
premises in "broom clean"
condition. Often this can be
accomplished in a matter of a day
or two, or hours, depending upon
the quantity of items. This
vacates the property so that it
may be cleaned and readied for
rental or sale or again more
storage.
Since 1992 we have liquidated
hundreds of estates and are
experienced in evaluating usual
household goods as well as fine
antiques, classic old cars and
trucks, etc. We are well known for
our Insurance appraisal service's
also.
If a written appraisal is needed
for probate purposes, our minimum
fee is $250.
We are also available to price
items for an on site sale to be
conducted by another party. For
this an hourly fee applies, and
would be quoted at the time of
initial consultation.
