white rock Estate sales

Estate sales are traditionally held on-site in a person’s home, but we also understand that modern shoppers need more convenient alternatives. That’s why we offer online downsizing and estate sale auctions.   

Our online auctions allow you to shop from the comfort of your home. Browse listings, place bids, and win items without ever leaving your couch. You don’t even need to sit at your computer. You can activate auto-bidding and the system will update your bid by a certain amount until you reach your budget threshold (or you win). 

It’s perfect for:

• Busy schedules. Bid whenever you want from wherever you want: at home, on the bus, or in line at the grocery. Online listings are available 24/7 and automated bidding let’s you participate while you sleep. 
• Shopping specific items. If you’re looking for second hand hockey equipment, just log on to any online auction platform and type it into the search bar. You’ll then be able to find any auctions in your chosen area that have one listed for sale.
• Detailed item photos and descriptions. Know exactly what you’re buying before you bid. Every listing will have high-quality photos and detailed item descriptions so you know what you’re bidding on and how much it’s worth to you.
• Simple and secure transactions. Payments are handled online by the auction platform. Multiple payment options accepted. Pickup for most auctioned items is in person to eliminate the risk of loss or damage while shipping.  

Our in-home, online downsizing & estate sale auctions are ideal for client's who have downsized to a smaller residence and need to sell off the contents of the home, or the executor of the estate who needs to sell off all the household contents to settle the estate.

During the auction, all viewing and bidding is held online, no in-home previews, for privacy and security issues. After the close of the auction only the prepaid winning bidders are given the exact address to pickup their winning purchases under our supervision.

Our in-home auctions are a great for:

• Selling off a large number of household contents in an efficient and timely process;
• We vet and collect the proceeds for you
• Everything sold on the auction is removed from the home usually, under 4 hour period.

In-home estate sales are great for:

• Treasure hunters who get excited when they uncover something rare and unexpected.
• Antique lovers that want to examine their potential treasures in person instead of relying on an impersonal photo that may not give an accurate portrayal of the real thing.
• Bargain hunters that enjoy negotiating for the best deals. 
• Curious shoppers who want to experience the vibe of an estate sale for the very first time. 

Many White Rock shoppers choose both options to maximize their finds and also what they can manage based on their own busy schedules.
