Online-Auction Estate Sale Services

The demand for online estate sale auctions has grown exponentially in recent years as more people look for a comprehensive solution that allows them to completely liquidate all items for sale, leaving the residence almost completely empty! In the online era we live in, there is no need to open the home to hundreds of shoppers. Shoppers from around the world who are interested in purchasing particular items can conveniently search online and competitively bid from their phone or computer. At the conclusion of the auction, local winning bidders sign up for a pick-up time and remove the items they’ve won. We also ship smaller items to customers who are not local. We do all the work by taking photos of your items, cataloging them, writing detailed descriptions, uploading the auction to the website, advertising, and providing staff to assist buyers in safely removing the items they’ve won so that you can enjoy a stress-free auction experience.

The benefits of an online auction over a traditional estate sale include:

100% accountability of all items sold. Sellers may view the auction before, during and after to review what is being sold, what the activity looks like and eventually the price realized at the close of the auction.
Fair pricing. Hundreds and even of thousands of buyers compete to purchase items rather than items being sold to the first person through the door.
Loss prevention. Reduces the opportunity for loss due to damage or theft.
Less traffic in the home. Preserves the property (residence), by restricting access to only individuals who have purchased items.
Low-key. Eliminates the need to conduct a multi-day estate sale and arouse unwanted attention, neighborhood traffic congestion, and ‘lookie-loos’ from wandering inside the residence.
Most everything sells. Unlike traditional estate sales that leave ‘money on the table’ – online auctions are efficient and effective, typically selling 99% of the items offered for sale.
Broadens market by offering convenient online bidding. Bidders may bid from their computer or mobile device from the convenience of their home.
Too far away to attend a traditional estate sale? No problem! Online bidding removes the distance barrier. Local bidders do not have to drive 20 miles to find out the item they were interested in purchasing had already sold. Bidders living in other states or countries may bid on items and have them shipped to them at their expense.
Levels the playing field. "In order to get a great deal at an estate sale you can’t be early – you have to be FIRST!" Online auction estate sales level the playing field for everyone, and do not penalize or alienate those unwilling to get up early and get their name on the ‘sign-up sheet’ the first day of the sale.
Peace of mind for Estate Administrator (fiduciary, executor, etc.). Estate administrators take on the moral and legal responsibility of protecting the assets of an estate and making fair distributions of property. Online auctions offer a transparent process for stake holders to have an opportunity to witness the liquidation process, relieving the estate administrator of the responsibility of accounting for what sold and for how much. Online auctions also provide a fair means for family and friends to purchase items of either a sentimental or material value that the administrator is unable or unwilling to distribute to them directly.
