Our Services
Estate Liquidation
At Gentle Tides Estate Sales, we follow a structured process to ensure a smooth and successful estate sale. Here is an overview of how we typically conduct estate sales:
Initial Consultation: We start with a consultation to understand the client's needs, assess the estate's contents, and determine the scope of the sale.
Inventory and Pricing: Our team meticulously goes through the estate, itemizing and pricing each item based on market value, condition, and desirability.
Marketing and Promotion: We create a comprehensive marketing plan to attract potential buyers, including advertising through our website, social media, local listings, and signage.
Sale Setup: Prior to the sale, we organize and display items in a visually appealing manner to maximize their exposure and appeal to buyers.
Sale Days: The estate sale typically runs for one to three days, during which our team manages the flow of customers, handles sales transactions, and addresses any inquiries.
Negotiations and Discounts: As the sale progresses, we may offer discounts on items to encourage sales and ensure a successful liquidation of the estate's contents.
Post-Sale Services: After the sale, we can assist with donation arrangements, cleanout services, or any additional support needed to finalize the estate settlement.
Throughout the process, our goal at Gentle Tides Estate Sales is to provide a professional and efficient estate sale experience for our clients while helping buyers find unique treasures at our sales.
