Estate Sales vs. Real Estate: How the Two Go Hand in Hand

Real estate is a hot topic in the country today, especially in terms of economics. According to Stasta, there are over 700,000 residential housing units for sale on average in the United States, and home values have increased 50.7% since 2016. With families upgrading square footage, millennials moving across the country for a new adventure, and the elder generation downsizing, the housing market is on fire right now.

When you think of real estate, the thought of how agents can work together with estate sales isn’t typically the first thing that comes to mind. But, with Blue Moon Estate Sales, these two business platforms go hand in hand. Whether you come from a real estate background or have friends and family in the business, you can utilize these connections to increase your estate sale franchise opportunities—not to mention increase both of your incomes.

Shift Your Real Estate Knowledge Into a New Realm

So you took your real estate exam, sold a multitude of homes to families and singles alike, and perhaps don’t have the spark for selling as you once did. That’s okay, we all need a reset on our careers from time to time. But, you shouldn’t let your talent and credentials go to waste. Thankfully, Blue Moon Estate Sales has just the opportunity for you—home liquidation franchising.

When you franchise with Blue Moon Estate Sales, you can put your knowledge of the housing market and customer relations to use. Though Blue Moon franchise professionals do not offer real estate services, some owners collaborate with real estate agents to accelerate the home-selling process. With our fast-paced work environment, you can still enjoy the flexible hours you once had and put your client connections to use.

Collaborate to Serve Home Sellers

According to the National Association of Realtors, there are over 105,000 real estate brokerage firms operating in the United States, equaling over 3 million active real estate licensees. Blue Moon Estate Sales is here to assist real estate agents in the sale of each home with our extensive network and support team. By combining efforts, real estate agents can sell homes quicker and franchisees can make a profit by helping homeowners declutter and prepare for a new life.

The Power of Marketing

When real estate agents and Blue Moon franchisees work together, they’ll reach a greater audience. According to Statista, consumers spend an average of 1 hour and 45 minutes on social media a day—continuously subjected to advertisements during scrolling. Blue Moon Estate Sales takes advantage of this opportunity by listing sales on social media platforms. Additionally, we send out a weekly newsletter to members of our loyalty program.

So what does this mean for real estate agents? As Blue Moon Estate Sales franchisees showcase upcoming sales, potential customers are previewing the real estate listing before it hits the market. By having additional eyes on the property listing, there is a large potential for an offer to come through before anyone else has the chance to ask for a showing—a quicker listing means a faster turnaround time to make a sale.

Fast & Efficient Staging

Working with a franchise company such as Blue Moon Estate Sales offers many benefits to those in the real estate industry. Another is fast and efficient staging opportunities. When real estate agents work with Blue Moon Estate Sales, our franchisees can help clear a home quickly so modern staging furniture can be brought in and potential buyers can view a more appealing home.

Our estate sales typically only last for a few days, leaving plenty of time for the home to be prepped for sale. We’re here to help expedite the process for everyone.

Downsize & Declutter Before a Move

One of the most common problems with moving is having to go through everything in the home and pack it all up. Even worse, those who don’t plan on taking a majority of items with them must either donate or host a garage sale. Instead, Blue Moon Estate Sales can help sellers downsize and declutter before a move.

Once real estate agents have a client looking to sell a home, they can recommend  Blue Moon Estate Sales to host a weekend estate sale. Blue Moon can eliminate the stress of clearing out the space and provide the family with some spare cash from unneeded belongings. This not only helps to improve the quickness of the moving process, but also allows for additional time to be spent staging or repairing the home before it goes on the market.
