WELCOME TO Wendell Keefer Estate Sales We take pride in our work and love the job. We offer you several options for liquidating your items. You will be able to decide which option works best for you and your circumstances. All of our staff are partners since we are a Co-Op, so expect the best service from everyone on our staff. Assessing the Property Initially, we will come to the property and make a review of the contents of the property. This will allow us to determine if a sale is in your and our best interest. If there is not a possible sale, and you are not interested in the Pull-Sale Option, we will be glad to give you a list of possible charities that could take the items for you. Finding your Liquidator Ensure you check out our company as well as others to ensure you will be happy with the services provided. If the property does have enough for a sale, you will need to interview some Liquidators to make a decision on who you want to use. Ensure you feel comfortable with whoever you choose. We want you to choose us with an open and educated mind and that you will be happy with the end result. Be ready to sign a contract when you have made your decision. Basic Beginning After a sale date has been set. We will need a key to the property and full access to the property. We will clean, sort, photograph, research, and market all of the items to be sold as much as possible. As soon as this is accomplished, we will notify by email, hand out fliers in the neighborhood and advertise the sale. We will also do notifications prior to the pre-sale, adding items that were found during the clean up and set up. The costs for any mailing and flier information are shared from the gross proceeds of the sale itself, as well as print ads, and advertising. We try and minimize all of these costs as much as possible. All of these costs will be come out of our pocket and will be reimbursed at the end of the sale from the proceeds of the sale. Most Estate Sale Companies will take their percentage from the gross proceeds of the sale. This leaves you, the client paying all expenses. Since both your and our percentages are taken from the net sales, we are splitting all the expenses with you. This also makes us limit expenses as it is coming out of our money too. The balance will be the net of the sale and will be divided as per the contract. Everything will be itemized so that you are assured of the cost of all items and services. ONCE YOU HAVE SELECTED US TO
