Choosing Green Eyes Estate Sales means you're selecting a company that provides more than just a service.

Our Services
Estate Sales
The passing of a loved one, divorce, downsizing, a major move or reducing debt are all common reasons people find themselves needing to liquidate assets through an estate sale. We plan,
organize and conduct all types of estate sales across Metro Detroit.
Online Sales and Consignment
Items not sold during an estate sale can
sometimes be sold online. We offer consignment services to reach a larger market and increase profits.
Downsizing and Move Management
Downsizing can be an overwhelming task. From deciding what to keep and what to sell, to choosing realtors, movers and other professional services such as cleaning and painting, it can be too much to do alone. Ask us about how we can help you move on to your next life chapter!
Post Sale Item Disposal and Cleaning
Post Sale Item Disposal and Cleaning
Every estate sale has some items left over.
We can help coordinate donation and/or
disposal and deep-cleaning
services.
Our Specialities
From paperclips to paintings, almost everything has value at an estate sale!
The valuation and sale of personal property requires a depth and breadth of knowledge. Our experienced team and a network of professional appraisers ensure a fair and honest sale for clients and customers alike.
Our Process
Step One:
Free Consultation
Set an appointment with us to meet at the sale location. Together we will tour the estate, assess your items, exclude any non-sale pieces and begin to create a custom plan for your sale. At this meeting we will provide a straightforward summary of the estate sale process, discuss post-sale cleanout/donation needs and review our contract agreement.
Step Four:
Conducting the Sale
We welcome the public, posting sale times and accepting cash or credit cards—no personal checks. Customers are welcomed to the sale by our team and directed to items locations upon entry. Security ensures safety, and our staff assists customers, continuously enhancing item presentation for maximum appeal.
Step Two:
Pre-Sale Organization
At this stage we begin to inventory, sort and price items, requiring all non-sale items to be marked or removed. A detailed sales-plan and logistics are prepared and items deemed to be un-sellable are disposed. Post-sale options for unsold items (including donation, consignment or disposal) are discussed.
Step Five:
Post-Sale
Post-sale, we ensure all items are collected and removed by buyers. We'll manage unsold items as previously discussed and clear out our tables, signage, and displays, leaving the property "broom swept" clean.
Step Three:
Stage, Price, Present
At this stage our team creates a retail-like presentation with tables, signage and displays to maximize visibility and profitability. We stage and display your items by analyzing current market trends ensuring optimal pricing. At the end of this stage we expertly photograph your sale and create several forms of attractive advertisements promoting your sale to the public.
Step Six:
Payout
Within 7-10 business days after the sale, you'll receive a Final Sale Financial Report and payout check. We'll also invite you to share a testimonial about our services at your convenience.
Our Story
In 2015, I interviewed estate sale companies to help my grandmother downsize from her home in Birmingham, MI. Unsatisfied with all the proposals I received, I handled the sale myself and discovered a love for the business.
A year later, I opened Green Eyes Estate Sales, LLC. I love what I do! An avid estate sale customer, I cultivated my hobby of collecting and restoring antiques, furniture and costume jewelry into a business that sells everything from Victorian brooches to modern furniture, luxury handbags, sports memorabilia and retro toys. My husband (and favorite employee!) is a retired Navy SEAL Master Chief who ensures that all logistical, set-up and security concerns are addressed so that each sale is efficient and organized. Together with our team we have successfully liquidated residential and commercial estates of all sizes since opening in 2016, creating custom service plans for each sale.
I am thrilled each time a client chooses my company. My team and I provide profit-gaining business services, along with the compassion to help those going through a life transition. We treat each client just as I treated my first, my wonderful Grammy!
When you choose Green Eyes Estate Sales, you get more than a company that simply sells your belongings and collects a commission. You get a sale plan that is tailored to your specific needs, access to public and private buyers, and the peace of mind that the company you hired will go above and beyond our competitors to make sure your sale is a success. Our Green Eyes family is ready to work for yours, and we look forward to hearing from you!
Frequently Asked Questions
Green Eyes Estate Sales instilled a sense of trust from our first interaction. Of the more than half-dozen Estate Sale representatives with whom we discussed our needs, they were the only ones to spend the extra time to ask thoughtful questions related to timing, logistics, and security. They really paid attention to details and showed great flexibility with regards to our specific requests.
They were prompt, organized and prepared for all of our appointments prior to the sale. The estate sale itself was well advertised and professionally managed. We had requested minimum prices on several items and they kept us informed real-time when offers came in on those items.
Upon conclusion of the sale, they provided a detailed report showing the sales prices of all major items and had a check for the proceeds readily available.
