ESTATE SERVICES
When you are the executor or have power of attorney, the task of estate
management can be very challenging. Auction Depot provides professional
estate services such as:
DETAILED INVENTORY
Knowing what is involved in an estate in regards to
assets is the first step in making many decisions. A full and complete
inventory can assist you. Any inventory can provide
insight on where items should be allocated and allow you to be
prepared when distributing assets between family
members. Many estates may contain items such as Firearms
weapons, etc which require special attention.
Auction Depot will manage the removal, storage and sale of all these
types of items.
APPRAISALS
Many items may look like just "stuff". Having us
appraise your estate will give you a better knowledge of the value of
all
assets. In many cases, liquidating an estate in
order to distribute funds is the best option but knowing the value
beforehand
will help you plan so there are no surprises after
the auction.
AUCTIONS
When deciding the best way to liquidate an estate,
the majority choose the auction method. The auction has the advantage
of creating a highly charged sales environment which
stimulates buyers thus providing the perfect forum to obtain a fair
market value for all items. The auction method is
also the only sales option which provides the seller with the ability
to sell
"everything" and not just the "good stuff". This,
combined with timely payment (within 5 business days after the auction)
is
why many estate planners will choose this method of
selling estate assets.
DISPOSAL
It is human nature to "Collect", and when you are
managing an estate you will find many items which do not have any value.
Auction Depot can insure that when all items are
sent to auction, all unsaleable items are disposed of in a proper
manner.
Auction Depot is here to help you with all your estate
planning needs. Please feel free
