Commission Factors

Tailored Rates Reflecting Property Needs

Every property across the Hudson Valley presents unique requirements. Our commission rate typically ranges between 35% and 40% of gross proceeds, established after an initial walkthrough. Factors influencing the rate include total item volume, research demands for specialty collectibles, and staging effort.

Prior to preparing your sale, we establish a written agreement detailing all terms. There are no hidden fees or unexpected charges deducted from your proceeds. Our commission covers sorting, staging, pricing, local marketing, sale staffing, customer checkout, and complete post-sale accounting.
