What is an Estate Sale?
An estate sale is a large-scale event where the possessions of a deceased person or a family are sold to the public. It typically includes a wide range of items, such as furniture, antiques, jewelry, household goods, collectibles, and more.

How Do You Liquidate an Estate?
If a loved one has recently passed and you are looking to liquidate the estate, your first step should be to reach out to a professional in estate liquidations.
There are a few options when looking to liquidate an estate. One is to remove anything of value to you and your family and then reach out to a company to buyout the rest of the estate.
The other option is to hold an estate sale.
