What Happens to Items that don’t sell?

While an estate sale can be very effective in clearing belongings from the home, it is likely that not everything will sell. Part of the post-sale clean-up is deciding what to do with the leftovers.

When considering hiring an estate sale company, check on their policies for post-sale clean up.

True Legacy Homes donates remaining items to charity, hauls away any that can’t be donated, and leaves the home “broom-clean.”

FAQ

How do I arrange an estate sale?

For a family trying to arrange an estate sale, it may be easy to become overwhelmed. It is an intricate process, and each step is crucial to the success of your liquidation. However, there are a few things that we can advise you on that may give you a bit of a guide. 

First, you and your family should get together and decide what each member wants to keep, what is up for sale, what is to be donated, and what can be thrown away. This can be a difficult task, but it will help if you look at the items’ actual values and not their emotional values. Next is the staging process. This is a make-or-break step to the curb appeal of your items, so you should take careful consideration when staging your home/property. 

Come time to host the sale, you should be well-organized and prepared for a crowd. Early preparation and a systematic approach to your sale will help alleviate stress during the event. Finally, you will need to sort through your leftovers, decide what stays, and then decide where to send the remainders. 

We know that this brief description alone can be overwhelming, so we strongly recommend hiring a company to handle this huge event for you. We want to be of assistance to you and your family through this process, so contact us today to begin working toward your estate sale.

What sells best at estate sales?

It can be difficult to know what to keep as family heirlooms, what to put up for sale at a liquidation, what to donate, and what to throw away. If you are trying to arrange an estate sale, then you are probably asking yourself what will be most successful when trying to sell. Take a look at our list of best-sellers!

First, art pieces can draw in a big crowd and make a large profit at your sale, especially if your family has a well-known art collection. These pieces can also be used for great advertisement.

Kitchen utensils and small appliances can also make for great estate sales. Whether the kitchenware and handy devices are collectible antiques or modern-day helpers, these items can bring in a large profit for you and your family. 

Next up are books and family novelties. These things may seem like dust-collectors to you, but estate sale shoppers frequently buy up these knick-knacks and repurpose them for their own families. 

Finally, jewelry is a sure-seller and can make your sale a huge success. If you have a large jewelry collection for sale, then a professional appraisal is highly recommended to make sure that you are getting what your belongings are truly worth.

Do estate sales make money?

Yes, they do! Estate sales are notorious for making a family money while also quickly clearing out their possessions.

If you are trying to calculate how much profit your sale will generate, then begin by analyzing the quality and quantity of your merchandise. Take a look at our guide to best-selling estate sale items to get an idea about what you should mark “for sale.” Also, make sure you get a professional appraisal on your items to get the maximum value for your property.

Before finalizing your estimated profit range, you also need to count the costs of hosting an estate sale. If you are tackling the project on your own, then you will need to coordinate each individual step and finance it along the way. However, if you decide to hire a company to handle this process, then you will need to do your homework and understand their upfront costs and commission rates.

What are the best days to have an estate sale?

When considering the success of your estate sale, there are a lot of factors. But one of the most important aspects of the sale is the day that it is held. Let’s go over a few things to consider when deciding when you should host your estate sale. 

Broadly, the time of year should be considered. Spring may be a desirable option because of the pleasant weather, but it may also bring competing sales on the same weekend as yours. Instead, try considering the winter months. Being in Carlsbad, CA, the weather will not reach bitter cold temperatures, so the lack of competition in the winter months may be the best option for you. 

Finally, the weekend of the selected month should be chosen. Many of our clients have had the largest success with sales hosted on the second or third weekends of the month, so considering these two weekends may be best for you and your family, as well.
