Common Questions, Compassionate Answers

Estate sales can feel overwhelming, but Apollo is here to lead the way with clarity and care. We handle the hard parts so you can focus on what matters.

General Information

How does the estate sale process work?

We start with a free consultation to assess the property. From there, our team handles the organizing, staging, pricing, and marketing. We then host a professional public sale event and provide a final payout and report.

What is the typical timeline for a sale?

The prep work usually takes 1–2 weeks, followed by a 2–3 day public sale. Our goal is to have the house cleared and your final check delivered within 10–14 business days after the sale concludes.

What exactly does Apollo handle during the sale?

We take care of every detail: expert research and fair pricing, professional staging with tables and tiered displays, broad digital marketing to drive traffic, and friendly staffing on sale days to manage buyers and secure transactions.

Do I need to clean or sort items before you start?

We actually prefer that you don't. Please don't throw anything away! Our team is trained to identify value in items that might seem like clutter, and we will handle all the sorting, grouping, and set-up on your behalf.

How and when do I receive payment?

Within two weeks of the sale's conclusion, we provide you with a comprehensive report of the event's totals. Your net payout, delivered via check, is provided at that same time.

Is there an upfront cost for a consultation?

No. Our consultations and walkthroughs are completely free. We operate on a commission basis, ensuring our interests are fully aligned with yours to achieve the best possible results for your estate.

For Professionals & Partners

Real Estate Agents

How does an estate sale benefit the home-selling process?

By clearing the residence and providing a professional clean slate, our sales allow properties to be staged and listed more effectively, often leading to faster contracts and higher offers.

Attorneys & Executors

What level of financial reporting do you provide for probate?

We offer comprehensive transaction logs and itemized reporting, ensuring that executors and legal teams have transparent, ready-to-file documentation for estate accounting.

Senior Communities

Can you coordinate with assisted living move schedules?

Absolutely. We work closely with move managers to ensure the sale occurs precisely when the family transitions, minimizing storage costs and easing the burden on everyone involved.

Trustees & Partners

What happens to items that remain after the sale concludes?

We offer optional post-sale clean-out services, coordinating donations and total liquidation so the property is delivered completely clear and ready for the next phase.
