An estate sale is a public sale of a property's contents, often conducted when a homeowner is downsizing, moving, or after a loved one has passed away. Swan Estates specializes in curating premium sales that showcase cherished belongings in an elegant and organized manner.
How does Swan Estates ensure a successful sale?
We carefully organize, stage, and price items to attract buyers. Our team creates an inviting atmosphere that highlights your home's contents. We utilize professional marketing strategies, online promotions, and local connections to ensure maximum visibility and attendance.
What types of items are sold at estate sales?
Estate sales often feature furniture, antiques, jewelry, artwork, home décor, kitchenware, clothing, and even vehicles. Our team evaluates and curates the best way to present these items to buyers.
How long does the estate sale process take?
The process typically takes 2-3 weeks from consultation to completion. This includes organizing, pricing, marketing, hosting the sale, and handling post-sale details like donations or clean-up.
Does Swan Estates provide clean-up services?
Yes. After the sale, we can arrange for unsold items to be donated, removed, or otherwise handled according to your preferences. Our goal is to leave the space clean and ready for its next chapter.
How are sale proceeds handled?
Swan Estates works on a commission basis. After the sale, we provide you with a detailed accounting of items sold and their prices. Proceeds are promptly distributed according to our agreed-upon terms.
What if I only have a few valuable items to sell?
We offer customized services for smaller collections, curating private sales or featuring your items in a larger estate sale event.
How do I prepare for an estate sale?
We recommend removing any personal items or family heirlooms you wish to keep. Leave the rest to us - even everyday household items can attract buyers.
