Estate liquidation is an overwhelming process if you’re unprepared. So, in addition to calling a professional to help with your Winter Park property, get organized. Setting aside time for organization can make for a smoother, more profitable overall experience.
Estate Liquidation: The Do’s and Don’ts of Organizing
- Do: Locate important documents, family photographs, and heirlooms. Make sure to segregate them so that they are not get lost in shuffle along the way. A professional estate liquidation company can help you with this; but if you know of particular items that hold sentimental value, it can help to put them somewhere for safekeeping as soon as possible to avoid any misunderstanding.
- Don’t: Throw away or donate anything until after the sale is complete. Even with the help of a professional, you may have some items left over. This is when it is appropriate to start looking into donating and tossing things. A professional may know the value of something that you do not recognize. Not to mention, you never know what may interest potential buyers.
- Do: If you’re not using a showroom in the Winter Park area, let a coordinator stage your home appropriately to maximize sale potential. You may have an idea of what looks nice, but a professional knows how to organize and design for profitability.
- Don’t: Lose your voice in the process. Speak up and make sure you’re clear about what you intend to keep so that there is no confusion between you, the coordinator, and the buyers. If there is an area of your Winter Park home that you would like closed off to onlookers, say so. While the circumstances of estate liquidation are often unfortunate, it is important that you are able to hold it together enough to express your intentions and needs clearly.
