When a big life event happens (sudden death of a loved one, divorce, eviction, foreclosure) or you need to downsize, it can be difficult to know what is the best avenue to take. Often your choice comes down to an estate sale, auction, or an estate liquidation/buyout. But what’s the difference and how do you know which one is best for you?

Estate Sale (also known as a tag sale) is the process of selling your items. This process is similar to a garage sale, but on a much larger scale. Each item is marked with a selling price and the process of the actual sale usually lasts anywhere from 1-3 days. When the sale is over, you are left with the unwanted items that did not sell and can either donate them or move them to your next location.

An Auction is the process of publicly selling your items to the highest bidder. As with an estate sale, you are paying a company to sort through your items, price them and eventually auction them off to the person willing to pay the highest price. The left over items that did not sell are either donated or given back to you to find placement for them.

An estate Liquidation/Buyout you are selling an entire estate all at once. Someone comes out to your house, assesses the value of all your items, and offers you one lump sum. This may leave you with the items that did not possess much value for you to figure out how to dispose of them or donate them.

Shields Estate Solutions LLC partners with several estate sale and auction companies. Not only will we offer you a price for all of your items of value, but we will also haul away the unwanted items or trash leftover and either dispose of them for you or donate them. It is best to do your own research and find out which service best serves your individual needs.

Who we are and how we can help!
When a family is searching for someone to liquidate their estate, it is often happening during a time of high stress. For some, a loved one has died and they don’t know where to begin the process of what to do with the owners belongings. It’s also hard to know who you can trust in a highly emotional state and find someone who will be honest with you and not take advantage of your situation.

Maybe you or a family member is facing an eviction or foreclosure situation. As if that isn’t stressful enough, not only do you have to find another place to live FAST, you also have to figure out how to liquidate or just get rid of your belongings in a hurry.   Our area of expertise is to offer a service to those who need to liquidate quickly and efficiently, and may not have enough items to sell at an auction or estate sale.

When you sell at an estate sale or an auction there is usually a minimum amount of value you need to sell to pay the company to sell your items or a commission fee. A commission fee is usually anywhere from 25-35% of your total sales.

So how are we different?
What makes us unique is that we are an all-in-one service. Many times you need someone to come in and set up an estate sale, and then someone  to take all the items that didn’t sell and donate them, and then ANOTHER person to come in and remove all the trash or rent a dumpster. We do ALL of those jobs in one service. That is our specialty.

We can clean out your items FAST. If you have items of value, we will take those items into consideration and it will be deducted from your total cost of the cleanout. Some of our clients end up not paying us a dime because they have enough items of value that cover the cost of our service. If you don’t have a lot of items of value, that’s ok! We can still cleanout your house, apartment, storage, shed, barn, you name it and

I GUARANTEE we can do it at a price that is cheaper than you renting a dumpster and having to do all the work yourself. We are also able to do a total buyout if that is what you need. If there’s anything we can’t do, we will refer you to someone who can.   Our business has grown strictly from recommendations and word of mouth. Check out what people have to say about us yourself! We have references available. We also partner with several real estate companies if you would like to call them to ask about our quality of service. Call us today to schedule an estimate!
