Our Estate Auction Company Has 60+ Years Connecting Buyers and Sellers
Legacy Auction Group & Realty is a full-service estate auction company with live auctioneer specialists able to help you with a downsize or move when you need it! An estate auction company serves as an intermediary between sellers looking to liquidate estate assets and buyers interested in purchasing these items.
These companies typically provide a platform or service for conducting online or in-person auctions where estate items such as furniture, artwork, collectibles, antiques, and other valuables are sold to the highest bidder. Legacy's licensed and certified auction team has the experience and knowledge necessary to manage your estate auction services to the very end. Estate auctions can involve many items, including furniture, antiques, collectibles, artwork, jewelry, and more. These auctions are typically held when someone passes away, and their belongings need to be liquidated, or when someone is downsizing or moving and wants to sell a significant portion of their possessions. Here's how the process of connecting buyers and sellers generally works:
- Seller Engagement: The estate auction company meets with the seller to assess the items to be sold. This involves cataloging the items, determining their value, and discussing the auction terms, including fees and commissions.
- Marketing and Promotion: The auction company promotes the upcoming auction through various channels, such as online listings, advertisements, email newsletters, and social media platforms. This helps attract potential buyers to participate in the auction.
- Auction Event: On the scheduled auction day, either online or at a physical location, buyers bid on the items they want to purchase. The auctioneer oversees the bidding process, accepting bids until there are no further offers.
- Transaction Management: Once the auction concludes, the estate auction company facilitates the transaction between the seller and the winning bidders. This includes collecting buyer payments, coordinating item pickup or delivery, and ensuring all necessary paperwork is completed.
- Settlement: After the auction, the estate auction company provides the seller with a settlement statement detailing the proceeds from the sale, any fees or commissions deducted, and any remaining unsold items.
A full-service estate auction company handles all the logistical, technical, and administrative aspects of organizing an auction, allowing the client to efficiently sell items while reaching a wide audience of potential buyers.
