Tag Sale/Estate Sale: The most common reason for an estate sale is the death of the property owner, and the consequent need to quickly liquidate the deceased's belongings. The survivors may have no interest in the bulk of the personal belongings left by the deceased, or may simply lack space to keep the belongings. In situations in which the survivors cannot agree to the disposition of tangible property, a court may order the goods to be sold in an estate sale with the proceeds to be divided among the survivors. Such a sale and division may also be mandated in the will of the deceased.
An estate sale may also occur because the property owner will be moving or has moved into a situation where he will be unable to keep his property—for example, a move to an assisted living facility, a retirement community, a rest home, or other living quarters.

We do not require any upfront fees nor do we have any hidden charges.
We can organize your sale in as little as 7 days. However; most sales take around 10-14 days to organize.
Absolutely not! We find that many items have intrinsic value to collectors. We have found that the best stuff is in the garbage at family run sales.
We have over 40 combined years in the business of sales but nobody knows everything! We dedicate an average of 96 hours setting up your home and researching your items. In addition, we have been attending estate, tag and garage sales for years and have been making a living doing so. We have pricing knowledge of a great many items you may have in you home.
By utilizing both services, we can combine mass advertising outreach that is not normally available for stand alone real estate services. Also, the estate sale buyers are frequently asking questions about the home and your realtor will be present throughout the estate sale.

Yes! In general, the first day of the sale prices are as listed. On the second day, most items are 25% off and third day of the sale, discounts are marked from 30% to 50%. However, some items have a firm price due to sentimental reasons of the seller.
