BB Auction & Realty has been helping clients liquidate estates for over 15 years. We help our clients transition to the next chapter of life. Organizing an estate sale to downsize can cause a lot of stress. Our goal is to make your sale as painless and easy as possible. We’ll meet with you to discuss your goals, the items you want to sell and our plan to move forward. Our professional appraisers will make sure you get the most value from every item. You choose what you want to sell, and we handle the rest. Contact us to find out how we can make your estate sale a success. Be sure to check out our active sales below. Following the active sales is a detailed overview of our estate sale process which will help you get a picture of what it looks like for us to conduct an estate sale for you.
Conducting an estate sale isn’t as easy as putting a sign in the yard. Our professional staff will come to you to discuss your goals for your estate sale. We’ll explain our valuation process, sale process, marketing and what to expect on sale day. We take your questions and concerns to heart and will make sure that we cover all the bases so the sale goes off without a hitch. Our consultations are always obligation-free and we never give a hard sales pitch. Our staff has decades of experience conducting estate sales in the Kansas City area so you can count on us to get the most value possible out of your sale.
Once we reach an agreement and sign a contract to conduct your estate sale, our qualified appraisers will come to your property and carefully look through the contents. We all hear stories about someone buying something at an estate sale for a few dollars which turns out to be worth many thousands and the seller lost out. We do our best to make sure you get the right price for every item. Our appraisers specialize in antiques, glass, collectables, tools, vehicles and just about every other thing you may offer for sale.
Marketing your estate sale is key to getting a good turnout. We promote sales on popular sites such as estatesales.net, Facebook, X and with our newsletter that goes out to thousands of people. In addition to online marketing, we take the extra step of good old fashioned fliers and cold-calling folks who we know would be interested in what you have to offer. Our marketing efforts give you the best chance of a high turnout possible.
The estate sale preparation begins with our staff coming to your property to inventory all items, de-clutter and stage your items for the sale. We come with everything we need including tables, display cases and great attitudes. We consider the flow of the crowd through the property and place items in strategic areas to attract the most attention. We make sure the items are clean and tag each item with an easy-to-read price tag. We take loads of pictures to use in your estate sale ads to really grab the buyer’s attention. You and your family are welcome to be a part of the process and ask any questions of our staff, at any time.
Our staff typically starts work on sale day around 4:30 am. We double check that all of our advertising has the address of the property as well as clear directions. As well as ensuring that everything is correct online, we place estate sale signs directing people to your home which is another method to reach people who may not have already heard about the sale. Our staff fields phone calls from people asking questions about the sale and talks to neighbors to be sure they know about the incoming crowd. We make sure that parking is managed in accordance with your HOA or city if required. Before the doors open, we talk to the crowd about the sale and what they can expect to see inside and position our staff in important areas inside the sale to answer questions and ensure the safety of attendees. We assist with loading heavy items for customers and make sure the loading area stays clear and accessible for easy load out. We make sure that the sale goes smoothly and as stress-free as possible for you.
Once the sale is concluded our staff removes all of the tables, display cases and gear we setup for the sale. We will coordinate with an independent, insured clean up company to move the remaining items to a location of your choice, at your direction. Don’t forget; anything that doesn’t sell is still your property! (A good thing to consider is putting some of your remaining items in one of our online consignment auctions) We will prepare an invoice for our services and once you approve, you’ll get a check with the proceeds of your sale within 10 business days. It really couldn’t be any easier!
