FAQs
An estate sale is not a garage sale. It is usually due to a significant life event, whether moving, downsizing, bankruptcy, divorce, or death. If you need to liquidate the contents of a home to prepare for the sale of the property, or for financial reasons, we are here to help.
Surprisingly, people hosting their own sale make far less money than those who hire us. Even after our commission, your bottom line will be much higher. How do we accomplish this? Our experience in pricing and sales allows us to liquidate contents better, faster, and for more money than inexperienced sellers. Our stellar reputation and skilled marketing draw hundreds of eager buyers to every sale, five times the interest, five times demand, and five times the return on liquidation. Hiring us means less work for you, much higher return after commission, and peace of mind.
Most importantly, DO NOT THROW ANYTHING AWAY! Focus on what you want to keep, financial documents, personal photographs, and sentimental items. During our consultation, we will explain the process in detail.
There is a buyer for almost ANYTHING. Your trash is someone else’s treasure!
A definitive YES! Many of our customers come specifically for jewelry or coins.
Our sales typically liquidate 85-90% of the contents of a home. At the end of the sale, remaining items are left to you. Our clients most often use our cleanout partner for a small fee, or donate the items.
A cashier’s check will be prepared for you within 1-5 business days.

TESTIMONIALS
Wow… what can I say? Where do I even begin? My mom was a massive hoarder. However, it was a good thing that she hoarded fine antiques and collectibles. When she passed last October my sister and I did not know what to do with her things. It was such a difficult time for us. Then we found out about Cottage Classics. In a week and a half, Georgann and her team had completely transformed my mom’s house and were efficient and very upfront and honest. My sister and I could not have asked for a better experience in doing my mom’s estate sale. Extremely professional and thorough! Thank you Georgann!
