Estate Appraisals
Our first objective is to identify any items of significant value and to develop a sales strategy to maximize the yield on items. Items that would fall under the appraisal area would include art, antiques, historical artifacts, coin, currency collections, jewellery, gems, high-end collectibles, and treasures. We use state-of-the-art technology and databases to research your items. All our valuations are tracked with references stored and documented. We also have one of the best Gemmologists in Canada in our own Beck Gemmological Laboratory.
Pricing the Sale
Beck Estate Services is uniquely qualified to handle any estate, all our staff are accredited appraisers and can identify items of value. We price things to sell while maximizing the return for the estate.
The Beck Estate Services team is the best in Canada. We are experts at pricing and selling antiques and collectibles. Items of significant value will then have a sales strategy assigned to them, this may include sending the items to special auctions and galleries. Beck Estate Services is connected to galleries and auction houses all over the world. We are best in class at maximizing the sales of items of value.
Becks are committed to providing an eco-friendly service that minimizes waste to landfills. At the complete of the sale, we will dispose any remaining items to charities. This also lowers the cost of disposal for the estate. Becks does not take a sales commission. Auction houses take 30% minimum and have a minimum hammer price which leaves the estate with little return. Packing, moving and unpacking takes time and causes damage to treasures.
Marketing
We advertise the estate sale to a database of our 5,000 customers/collectors / treasure hunters as well as on multiple Social Media sites. We are the best marketers in the industry and sell over 3 million dollars worth of treasures yearly. Our Estate sales bring out hundreds of collectors. Our signage is professional and draws crowds. Everything about the sale is first class. We accept credit cards and debit at your sale. We run a cash desk for easy tracking. You will have a first-class experience from start to finish with Beck Estate Services. We also document the entire project from start to finish by taking before and after pictures and videos.
