Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Welcome to Infinite Estate Sales! Below are answers to some of the most common questions we receive about estate sales. If you have additional questions, don’t hesitate to contact us.

What is an estate sale?

An estate sale is a way to sell a significant portion or all of the belongings from a home. Estate sales are often organized due to downsizing, relocation, divorce, or after the passing of a loved one. Unlike a garage sale, estate sales typically feature a wide variety of high-value items such as furniture, antiques, collectibles, and household goods, all priced to sell throughout the house.

At Infinite Estate Sales, we follow a straightforward process:

  1. Consultation: We meet with you to assess the scope of the sale and your goals.

  2. Setup: Our professional team organizes, prices, and displays items to maximize appeal.

  3. Advertising: We market your sale online and locally to attract the right buyers.

  4. Sale Day: We manage everything, including customer interactions and transactions.

  5. Post-Sale Cleanup: Unsold items are donated, sold off-site, or returned to you as per your preference.
