You may want to get yourself an Ebay account and also an account with the U.S. postal service (usps.com) so you can find out how much postage will be before you set the auction. You can also print labels with postage right on line. You'll also need a paypal account. Order some supplies from usps.com, the flat rate boxes to sell your houses. They are free. Listing collectables on Ebay is very time consuming. It's not only the listing itself, but the research of trying to find out what the items are worth by searching the completed listings of what they sold for. Not what people are listing them for. You'll need boxes, bubble wrap and possibly a postal scale which you can buy on amazon.com for $20.00.
You'll need to take pictures. I use my I-phone and it works well. You'll need to keep organized for your auctions. It's not a piece of cake but a new learning experience and will pay off in the end. Good luck.
