Our Story
Sara Sells is a dream realized. It's so much more than beautiful home furnishings.
Beginning in 2015, Sara, on a hunch and a whim, convinced her husband to buy a truck so she could start buying deeply discounted returns and overstock items to resell online. It was a hit from day one, and buy-sell-trade groups quickly saw Sara’s success. She started her own group to market items and it grew to nearly 3,000 followers in those early days.
In 2017, when her sources for larger furniture items changed strategies, so did she. Despite feeling overwhelmed and underprepared, she and her husband attended Atlanta market and connected with established vendors/manufacturers, most of which she still works with today. As more inventory became available, it was time to expand. And just like in 2017, within a few months, a warehouse in College Grove, TN was found and their first in-person weekend sale was planned.
Those faithful Sara Sells followers from social media led to nearly 300 people shopping the first sale. That year was spent finding a rhythm and style that would serve customers all across Tennessee.
Sara was living her dream. Sara Sells became not just a place for her to curate, merchandise, and run a business but a way to give back to a community she cares for deeply. She partnered with local charities serving young men and women, some of whom became welcomed additions to the team. Her gift was being shared, and Sara Sells was growing.
Expansion happened in 2018 when Nashville doubled the size of their showroom. Then in 2020, a second location was established in Memphis, TN, and in 2022, a third in Birmingham, AL! In just five years, Sara Sells went from a neighborhood buy-sell-trade group to a monthly warehouse sale that draws thousands of people each month.
Today, Sara Sells is a fun, unconventional shopping experience bringing designer end furniture to the everyday person at prices well below retail. And the best part, items can be taken home that day — no lead times and no delays. We can’t wait to welcome you to our next sale!
"We finally attended the Sara Sells warehouse sale last month and were not disappointed. The sale has wonderfully priced in style furniture, lamps, rugs and accessories. Seriously, the prices on several of the items we purchased online were double or triple her price. Sara and her staff were all very nice and helpful."
