Trusted Estate Liquidations Built on Faith, Integrity, and Genuine Care

At Estate Sale Professionals, we believe estate liquidation is about more than just selling personal property. It is about honoring a lifetime of memories, supporting families through major life transitions, and providing a steady, professional hand when it is needed most.

Based in Oak Ridge and serving the greater Knoxville and East Tennessee region, we combine decades of deep auction experience with a modern online bidding platform to deliver maximum value with minimal stress.

Estate Sale Professionals is led by Elaine Graham, a licensed auctioneer since 2000 and the longest-running estate sale business owner in East Tennessee. Elaine founded the company in 2007. When 2020 brought shifts to traditional in-person retail, Elaine transitioned the business entirely to online auctions, revolutionizing how local estates are liquidated.

I have been a customer of Estate Sale Professionals for many years. Elaine puts great effort into organizing each auction making it easy for a bidder to find any pertinent information. We have been pleased with the quality of our purchases and will continue to shop her auctions.

Estate Sales Professionals continues to set the standard for how an auction should be run. Elaine made the entire experience outstanding from beginning to end. The listings were accurate, the bidding process was fair and exciting, communication was prompt, and pickup was organized and effortless. It’s clear that Elaine genuinely cares about both buyers and sellers, and that attention to detail shows in every aspect of the auction. Whether you’re a first-time bidder or a seasoned collector, you can bid with confidence knowing you’re dealing with true professionals. One of the best estate sale auction experiences I’ve had. Five stars without hesitation—I’m already looking forward to the next auction. Highly recommended!

Let me tell you, nobody runs an estate sale like Elaine Graham! Her sales are top‑notch, well‑priced, and full of great finds. But Elaine doesn’t stop there. She’s one of Oak Ridge’s hardest‑working volunteers, always jumping in to help local groups raise money and keep community projects going strong. She’s the kind of person who makes things happen. If you need an estate sale done right or a volunteer who shows up with energy and heart, Elaine is your girl.

Elaine is absolutely wonderful to work with! She runs her online estate auctions with honesty, professionalism, and incredible attention to detail. Her descriptions are accurate, the photos are excellent, and the entire process—from bidding to pickup—is always smooth and well organized. What I appreciate most is Elaine herself. She is kind, friendly, and genuinely cares about both the families she serves and the people participating in her auctions. Her integrity and hard work shine through in everything she does. If you’re looking for an estate sale professional who is trustworthy, knowledgeable, and makes the entire experience easy, I wholeheartedly recommend Elaine. She is truly one of the best!

Elaine and her team were great. She communicated what to expect and when her team showed up they got everything organized. When auction time rolled around we could watch the progress( stay patient, it all happens at the closing hours). Pick process was smooth and they left us with a completely cleared out house and a check. Just what we asked for. Great job y’all.

My wife and I have bought many things at her auctions. If we have had questions about a particular lot, we texted or emailed and always got a prompt reply. The pick ups at the auctions have always gone smoothly. The individuals working there are courtesy and have always been helpful.

Elaine and her team were unbelievable in the care they took with cleaning out my dear sister's condo. Elaine kept me up to date and was truly professional the entire time on this project. I cannot give her and her team a higher recommendation than how I went from grief to relief when everything was finally done to perfection!
