For In-Person Pickups:
Specific time and location information for item pick-up will be disclosed in the confirmation email sent to purchasers of any item designated as “local pick-up only”.
For security purposes, a valid, government-issued picture ID will be required at pick up.
As part of this email confirmation, purchasers who are unable to pick up items themselves can authorize an agent to do so on their behalf. Purchasers will need to provide The Realest with the name, address, email, and picture ID, of the person they are authorizing, and this information will be confirmed by The Realest at pick up.
Standard Conditions of Sale apply to all local, in-person pick ups.
