How much lead time does an Auctioneer need to prepare and conduct a sale?
The more time an Auctioneer has to prepare the sale, the higher the proceeds will be. Top prices come from the proper marketing. Sorting, arranging and cleaning greatly increases household items salability, and this can take time. Generally, (2-3) weeks from a completed service agreement are sufficient in preparing an average auction. While specialty sales may require as much as 2-months to be properly promoted in the right trade publications. The actual auction is generally conducted in one (1) day.
