Common questions
What is a living estate sale?
A living estate sale is a sale of a household's belongings while the owners are still living, usually because they are downsizing, moving to a smaller home, or moving to a senior community. You choose what stays with you, and we help sell the rest.
How is downsizing different from an estate sale after a death?
Downsizing is a planned, gentler process. You are still here to decide what to keep, there is usually more time, and you can take the sale at your own pace.
Do you only help with big houses?
No. We help with condos, apartments, small homes, large homes, and acreage. If you have more belongings than you want to move, we can talk it through.
What does it cost to get started?
Starting is simple. Call or send a few details, and we will talk through your situation and your options, with no pressure and no obligation.
