I went to my first estate sale a few years ago, and I was in awe. I used to be a lover of garage sales, but I found my new calling, ESTATE SALES. I always thought I had to look for estate sales randomly, out and about, until I started asking around.
Here is what I found out about hunting out local estate sales:
Where do I find estate sales to go to? Download the Estate Sales.net app onto your phone, and set it to find sales within your area. You can check sales that are happening that day, or sales up to 7 days away. This is where I find most of the sales I go to. If I am ever traveling to other cities, I always change the location so that I can view the local sales in that specific area.
Next, download the Yard Sale Treasure Map app. This app pulls a LOT (if not all) of the sales straight off of Craigslist. A couple of the individuals running an estate sale that I went to explained that their company is not listed on the estatesales.net app because they had to pay a small fee, so they list their sales through this app instead.
Third? Craigslist baby. Craigslist has a wide assortment of sales listed.
Another place? Facebook Marketplace. I went to a sale, last summer, that I saw listed on Marketplace, that wasn’t listed anywhere else! So keep your eyes peeled for these.
And there you have it. Short and sweet and to the point! I hope that helped. Happy Estate Saling! Follow along with my estate sale finds on Instagram @thisoldbrickhouse.
