3 Ways an Estate Auction is Better than a Garage Sale

While many people put a garage sale and an estate auction in the same category, they are very different. It is true that they share a similar goal — the selling of used goods — but that is largely where the similarities end. Garage sales are often not worth the hassle they bring, while an auction can be highly lucrative, not to mention simple. Learn more about why you should skip the yard sale in Conway.

1. Estate Auction Requires No Effort on Your Part

With an estate auction, our company will do all of the hard work for you. This includes the physical labor involved with moving and relocating large items like furniture, as well as fragile items like antique vases or paintings. As a part of your service, we will come to your house and inventory everything you wish to sell in Conway. We also transport it safely to our Downtown Orlando gallery to prepare it for sale.

2. Garage Sales Invade Privacy

Garage sales require you to set up shop either in your garage, driveway, or in your yard in Conway. You may even be hosting an estate sale, but even then, you will have strangers entering your house. To some, this may feel like people are invading your property, making for an uncomfortable situation. By having people come to you, you also miss out on a lot of buying action. Instead, an estate auction takes place in a neutral third party location. We bring buyers together, which is more lucrative (and a lot more private) for you.

3. Estate Auction Brings More Money

With an estate auction, the atmosphere of bidding and raising the stakes creates a sense of urgency and adrenaline in buyers. This causes the selling amount to go up, up, and away. People flock from all over Orlando and Conway to see what treasures they may find at our weekly events, and we have seen prices skyrocket in short periods of time. Also, with a garage sale, it is first-come, first-serve in terms of prices and offers. If someone comes along at 10 a.m. and offers you $5 for a lamp, you may miss out on someone coming along later who may have offered you $20 for it. We bring all the buyers together at once, leaving you with the highest bid.
