Pricing

Sale Timeline

Our commission charges depend on the estate. We base our commission on the workload and payroll hours required for us to get your estate ready for a successful and organized sale. Out of our commission, we pay marketing fees, payroll for setup (pricing, staging, research), sale staffing, insurance, and credit card processing.

Marketing

We operate our sales on-site of the items to be liquidated. We do not offer buyouts or off-site sales.
Please check with your H.O.A to ensure that an estate sale is not in violation of neighborhood policy.
