So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Things To Consider Before You Conduct Estate Sales

By Brenda Warner


An estate sale is a way to liquidate the belongings of a deceased person. Other than that, when a home has been foreclosed, it is also possible to set an estate sale. And because the process involves complex steps like cataloging and pricing, there are some people who choose to hire professionals in conducting the process. But, if you really want to conduct the event by yourself, you may consider some factors to maximize profit.

There are many things to consider when organizing this event. Divide all your properties by categories. In order to make the pricing and selling a lot easier, removing the objects from their original places is important based on their conditions, functions, and value. These categories usually include appliances and artworks. You can also categorize high valued objects and start the estates sales in Concho Valley.

Next is to make assessments on the condition and quality of each object, clean them and make repairs if necessary. Creating a catalog of these objects to be sold may include the size, ages, category, and the functionality. Next is to price the items. You may consult antique stores, catalogs or other sales to gather insights or ideas on how to price the items.

Take photos of the items, either in a group or individually., It serves as references for buyers and for advertisement purposes. Make sure to set a date for your event and avoid schedules when others are planning the same events like yours so you would not overlap schedules. Holding the sale early in the morning is better until you have liquidated all the objects.

Advertising is also essential to spread awareness of the public. Thus, start looking for resellers, furniture shops, antique shops, or thrifts shops that might be interested in acquiring your goods. Contact merchants found in San Angelo, TX to gauge interest in buying the stocks if there are leftovers after the activity.

You also need to place your ads for a sale on newspapers or online and distribute information through posters and leaflets. Additionally, you can use printing press t0 feature the story of your properties and the owners. This highlights the owner and the property itself. Actually, some people love to read stories like this making it an advantage on your part.

If you place your contact information in the ads, then most probably a lot of people will ask you questions and call you. If this is the case, it is important to answer all their inquiries. If you got plenty of emails, then respond them properly. Try to respond in a friendly matter, courteously, and professionally.

Before you execute the plan, think about the income you will earn from this. Basically, estate sales are not an easy thing, particularly when it comes to larger properties. Once you lack the skills in handling the procedure, then consider hiring an expert who has the ability in handling the process all the way.

Knowing these things will make your event a success. You only have to consider these factors before planning the activity. Keep in mind that selling may involve emotions especially if that item has a sentimental value to you. This thing is another consideration upon selling the objects.
