WHEN YOU NEED AN ESTATE SALE

There are many occasions that might cause a person to need an estate sale-- death
in the family, downsizing to a smaller space, lowering moving expenses and having
too much stuff.

Usually, when there is a death, the executor finds a way to dispose of the items that
heirs do not want or may decide to have an estate sale so that the heirs each get
an equal amount of money. This solves the problem of two people wanting the same
piece of furniture. Selling the items and dividing up the money is the fairest way to
handle differences in value and setting disputes over who wants what.

Downsizing to a smaller place or moving out of town is another reason to have a sale.
Sometimes pieces of furniture are the wrong scale for the new place and typically sofas
and dining room sets are too large for a smaller place. Sometimes people decide to
sell items instead of paying to move them or decide to redecorate with a different style.
