Common Concerns
I can’t think of many businesses to compare to an estate liquidation company.
As a business owner you are entrusted to liquidate the assets of family members that have been collected for decades in an industry that’s not regulated by any governing body.
The competition in the industry is fierce because there are no special licensing requirements to start an estate sale business, and one bad apple in the industry can taint the reputation of many.
There are individuals that begin by starting their own estate sale company, only to give up soon after because they cannot sustain.
Estate Sale Business Success
A successful business especially in the estate liquidation industry can only exist if the right steps are taken at the right time. This proves to be difficult in a business where every day you’re conducting business at a different location, and the situation you’re facing will vary from one home to the next.
