EstateSail

For liquidators. By liquidators.

Estate sale software features, in one platform.

Catalog the house, run the sale, and give your client a report they can follow. Every plan comes with your own website and buyer email, and you can sell online on the EstateSail marketplace with Buy It Now or auctions. Built by estate liquidators who understand the work. Sale days get easier, and you leave pricing guns and paper receipts behind.

AI cataloging and smart pricing

A big house gets cataloged without a night of research. Snap a photo. AI writes the description and a price range. You still set the price.

  • A category, a description, and a min/max range from the photo, plus condition, material, and size when the photo supports them.
  • Each sale can have its own AI pricing rules: a custom prompt, a pricing mode, and a min and max you can enforce.
  • Remove a photo background when you want a cleaner image.
  • Google Lens and eBay sold listings are built right in when you want a closer look.
  • Drop in hundreds of photos at once on the web dashboard. Run a home assessment before the contract if you want an estimate in hand.

Every house stays its own sale

Rooms, dates, and the crew belong to that estate. The next house starts clean, and the report follows the one you are in.

  • Rooms so staging and the client report can follow the house.
  • Duplicate a room into the next sale. Sold items stay where they sold.
  • Mark a group of prices down at once, or import a spreadsheet you already have.

Label printing

The price on the sticker is the price in inventory. Print the stack before the sale, or reprint one label from your phone when a price changes.

  • Barcode labels with the price and the item info.
  • Print hundreds in one job, including over Bluetooth from your phone.
  • Reprint after a price change. Checkout still reads the same code.

Payments

Scan a label, take the payment, and the receipt goes out. Inventory stays accurate while the sale is still open.

  • Cash, or cards with Square or Stripe, including a Square POS terminal.
  • Tap to Pay on iPhone works with both Square and Stripe, so the phone can take a card without a separate reader.
  • Record check, Venmo, PayPal, and Zelle at checkout. Split a ticket, park a cart, and run more than one register.
  • You can charge buyers a card fee. Sales tax is calculated from the rate you set, and you can apply a discount. EstateSail does not file or remit the tax.
  • An itemized receipt by email. SMS can send that receipt, a check-in update, and, only if the shopper opts in, a note about an upcoming sale. Card numbers are not stored in EstateSail.

Check-in queue

Shoppers check in from a link and get a place in line. Your crew sees who has arrived, on every phone, without a clipboard.

  • A public check-in link, a queue number, and a QR code for each shopper.
  • Scan to mark someone arrived. Pending, arrived, and no-show stay in sync.
  • Start the queue fresh each day of a multi-day sale.

Team management

Each person has an account. You decide what they can do, and which houses they can open.

  • Invite by email. Pro includes up to 8 people.
  • Permissions for inventory, the door, checkout, and reports.
  • Limit someone to specific sales when more than one house is open.

Reporting

The numbers come from checkout. Families see what sold and how it was paid, and you spend the evening on the conversation, not on rebuilding a spreadsheet. EstateSail does not pay the family.

  • The client settlement can show your commission and the deductions you enter, and it ends on the estate's net.
  • A business profit statement covers your company's result, separate from that settlement.
  • Revenue, what sold, and what is left, while the sale is still open. Export a PDF or CSV.
  • A QuickBooks-ready export, and a Whatnot CSV when that channel is part of your week.

Security

The sale record stays with your company. Card processing stays with Square or Stripe.

  • Sign in with Face ID or Touch ID. Two-factor authentication is available.
  • Data is encrypted, and actions can be reviewed in an audit log.
  • Card numbers are not stored in EstateSail.

The phone for the house. The computer for the office.

iPhone and iPad for the floor. The web dashboard for bulk work and reports. Everyone stays on the same sale. EstateSail needs an internet connection for AI cataloging, pricing research, and live sync across phones, registers, and the dashboard. Plan on Wi-Fi or cellular data at the house.

  • Photos, labels, check-in, and checkout on the phone or iPad. Requires iOS 18.0 or later.
  • Bulk edits and reports from any computer browser.
  • The EstateSales.net helper can fill in sale info and upload photos with captions. It is not a live two-way sync.

Your website, email to buyers, and the marketplace are below. Each one uses the sales and the catalog you already keep in EstateSail.

EstateSail has been a game changer for our business, making the inventory and checkout process much more efficient for our team.

Our inventory is more accurate, checkout is much faster, and what used to be a time-consuming reconciliation process afterward is now a simple matter of running a report.

Your website

Look like the company families want to hire.

Families and realtors look you up before they call. Your website is included on every plan. It shows your name, your sales, and a clear way to ask for a consultation. Publish a house when it is ready, from the same account that runs the sale.

How it works

01

Your name, and the sales you choose

Pages can include Home, About, Services, current and upcoming sales, past sales, FAQs, and Contact. Hide any page you do not need. You decide which sales appear.

02

A consultation request, saved with your clients

Families can ask about a house. The inquiry is emailed to you and saved in your client list. Shoppers can also sign up to hear about the next sale.

03

An address you can put on a card

Publish at a free EstateSail address, estatesail.us/w/ plus the name you choose, or connect a domain you already own.

Email your buyers

Fill the next house with people who already know you.

The shoppers who checked in, bought, or asked about a consultation are the easiest crowd to invite back. Buyer email is included on every plan. Those notes go out under your business name. Replies come to you. Email goes only to people who asked to hear from you, and every message has an unsubscribe.

How it works

01

Write to people who opted in

Leads and clients, people who signed up on your website, and past shoppers who asked about future sales. Choose one group, or write to all of them.

02

Announce a sale, or let a follow-up run

Send the dates yourself, or turn on a short sequence when someone requests a consultation or subscribes. You write the words. Photo cards can link to the sales you have published.

03

A weekly note while the calendar is full

A weekly email can feature the sales you published, so shoppers see what is coming up. Skip a week when nothing is scheduled.

The marketplace

Sell to shoppers who never walk through the door.

A house only holds so many people. The EstateSail marketplace puts the catalog you already photographed in front of shoppers who cannot attend. Run a Buy It Now sale or an auction sale, at the house, online, or as a hybrid. One sale does not mix Buy It Now items with auction lots. Pickup is available. When shipping is on, you can buy a shipping label in EstateSail. You can keep the sale online after the house closes. Checkout on the marketplace is secure.

How it works

01

List from the sale you already built

Photos, descriptions, and prices stay in EstateSail. On a hybrid sale, online hours and in-person hours can be different. When an item sells at the house, what is still available online updates. After the house closes, the sale can stay online for what is left.

02

A set price, or a bid

Buy It Now sells at the catalog price. An auction lets shoppers bid during the window you set. Each sale is either Buy It Now or an auction, never both. You can still run both kinds of sales on different houses.

03

Pickup, or shipping when you want it

Shipping stays off until you turn it on. You can buy a shipping label in EstateSail. One sale can offer pickup on some items and shipping on others.

04

Auction settings you can turn on

A reserve, bid increments, a maximum bid, a soft close, and a buyer's premium when you charge one. Leave off the ones that do not fit the sale.

Five stars

We can now sell inventory online before and after our in-person sale hours, reaching an entirely new group of customers who prefer to shop online.
