Liquidation

For over 45 years, our management team has converted unwanted inventory & equipment into cash. We save our clients huge sums of money in operational costs by performing within tight time frames & around major obstacles including real estate, landlord lease negotiations, legal, physical & asset location problems.

  • Affordability starts with the outline of the project. We work with clients to ensure we take the steps needed to increase the probability of a favorable outcome. With our team managing the coordination of the entire sale, we use decades of experience to maximize financial recovery for clients.

    For 50 years, Liquid Assets has been guided by two objectives:

    1.) Maximizing value for all stakeholders

    2.) Simplifying the process

  • We all know time will be your friend or foe.

    If time is on your side, we appreciate partnering with clients early in the process to help fine tune a disposition plan. Often clients will benefit from “not figuring it out alone” or wasting time and expenses on unproven paths.

    If time is not on your side, lets roll up our sleeves and get to work. A typical sale can be between 4-8 weeks (between site visits, auction preparation, marketing, conducting sale, proceed collection, and asset removal). If time is limited, make the most of it. Contact us today to get visibility on solutions, quickly.

    A general rule of thumb is that the more time you have the better probability you will have to maximize recovery. Depending on the time you have to work with it can dramatically change the approach.

  • Since the covid pandemic, there has been a seismic shift from traditional “onsite” Liquidations to online Auctions. While Liquidation and Auction are often used interchangeably, there are some nuances of which solution to use depending on the needs of the client.

    We take a transparent approach that provides clients all the years of our experience and helps them make the right decision for their project.

    With Liquid Asset’s support, clients can ensure they receive transparent advice on;

    • Best approach for a sale

    • Steps that can be taken to minimize any cost

    • Avoiding pitfalls of an asset sale

    • Saving time for their teams

  • • Court Appointed Sales (often Chapter 7 or 11): We have a long history of working with legal and bank professionals whose responsibility is to conduct asset sales from a commercially reasonable approach.

    • Private Negotiated Sales: This supports a discrete approach to an asset sale.

    • Live Auctions: Typically on site and conducted by an auctioneer.

    • Online Auctions: This is the most common auction approach which uses 3rd party sites to maximize marketability to potential buyers.

    • Sealed Bids: Allows buyers to submit an offer on assets without disclosing amounts to other potential buyers.

    • Orderly Liquidations: This approach implies that the liquidation would allow for a reasonable time to identify qualified buyers and that the seller would have control of the sale.

    • GOB Sale (aka Going out of Business Sale). This is typically involves a single or several locations closing completely. Depending on scenario, this can be a favorably way to increase recovery on remaining assets at any site.

    • Ongoing Concern Sale: This supports the sale of a brand, division or company that is looking to continue under ownership.
