We’re having great success hosting our online estate sale auctions for all personal tangible property. Our clients generally come close, break-even, or make money on the sale, mitigating the cost of clearing an estate, and hauling everything to the nearest non-profit. This process clears the entire property leaving it broom clean for the next phase.
For those with high-value treasures like fine art, rare collectibles, or luxury goods, we partner with John Moran’s auction house specializing in those areas. Our network of experts will authenticate your items, estimate their value, and ensure they reach a global audience of serious collectors through prestigious auctions. We work closely with you to get the best results for your prized possessions.
