Working for yourself by buying and selling any type of product is a timeless and age old tradition among the most creative entrepreneurs. The quantity of money you make in this timeless profession is determined by your own creative abilities and ingenuity. One of the most cheapest ways to find things to sell is to buy from storage auctions.
There can be and have been some serious treasures found in storage units. You see, when someone has gotten behind or just stopped paying for their storage unit, the company has the right to sell it and try to regain some of the money they have lost due to non payment. That's where ambitious people just like you can profit by buying low and selling high.
Where can you find these types of auctions? Just about every city and town in the country has at least one storage unit business near you that has this type of auction. These businesses can be found even in some of the smallest towns (and there's less competition). In some of the larger communities, you will find many storage unit businesses having storage auctions regularly where you can go and buy a whole unit for one low price.
You will only be able to take a quick peek into the unit before the auction, as they do not take the time to allow bidders to go through every bin or box. Don't let that deter you from attending and checking it out because even buying one of these units blindly can bring you big profits. There have been some amazing things found in storage units by bidders that won the auctions.
You will want to look in your local phone book or online and find out where your local storage units are located and call to speak with the owner or manager and ask when they will have their next storage auction. This is how you find out where and when the storage auctions are being held. It is recommended that you go to two or three and observe how it is done by others before trying to bid yourself. Once you feel you have the basic idea, you will be ready to start bidding (and winning) storage auctions.
You will want to sort through the items you've won once you have them home so you can determine what is worth reselling and what needs to be thrown away. Once you have sorted through your winnings, you need to make an inventory of what you have. You can use several avenues for selling your items like the newspaper, online auctions and flea markets or swap meets. You never know what you will find and who will pay top dollar for what you have, and the right choice is based on the items you win.
