SELLING YOUR ESTATE

Claudio,

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to thank you and Margaret for the amazing job you both did in selling just about everything that was not nailed down at my home. In reviewing your final sales inventory I even saw items I had forgotten that I owned. You handled the entire sale in an extremely professional and tasteful manner and I was amazed that you took care of every detail including the cleanup so I could focus on getting the house ready for my closing. In my mind the highlight took place as I was dragging and old dilapidated wood work bench into the garage hoping my buyer would not object so I could avoid paying $50 to haul it away. You advised me that you could sell what I thought was a piece of junk, and you in fact did. I would highly recommend your services to anyone and would use you again in a heartbeat, I just wish I knew you for my previous home sales.

Dear Claudio and Maggie

Thank you for handling our moving sale recently. As advertised, you are very efficient, fast, prompt, honest, and knowledgable. YES, Claudio, you DO KNOW your business. I’m glad I didn’t bet with you on anything. Also, you did an excellent packing job
on two pods.

I am doing better with my heart problem.

Best wishes,
Lucy and Bruce

Thanks so much.

Claudio and Maggie did a wonderful job helping me with my mother’s estate sale. They are kind, thoughtful and professional. It is difficult to part with a family member’s treasures and Claudio and Maggie’s approach made the process much easier than I could have imagined.

Thank you again,

I contacted Claudio on short notice to help with the estate sale of my cousin. Claudio and his team did a terrific job in maximizing the return for my cousin ( who we put in a senior living facility). I’m a busy man and never physically met Claudio however he lived up to and exceeded what he thought he could do. I normally don’t conduct a transaction like this without physically looking someone in the eye but I assure you that he is a man of his word which today is uncommon. He managed to quickly put together an estate sale, attract customers and leave my cousin with some additional funds that she definitely needed. If you are looking for a professional that knows what he is doing, look no further. I highly recommend them and this is only the second time in my life I have felt compelled to take the time to recommend a company. Thank you Claudio for making this painless and for doing a terrific job!
Best regards,
Jim K.

When my mother passed away it was a time of grieving for my family. In the midst of our grieving we had to deal with practical matters. One of those matters was hiring someone to handle the estate sate. We chose Claudio & Margaret and are confident that we chose wisely.

Claudio & Margaret were reliable, efficient, down to earth , kind and honest. For anybody who is deciding who to hire for handling their estate sale, I highly recommend Claudio & Margaret.

In summary , they are the best !

On a personal note , Claudio and Margaret , thank you so much ! We are safe and sound in our home in Austin and anxiously awaiting the arrival of the pod which contains the few things we had moved .

I cannot recommend more highly the services of SellingYourEstate.com. From the moment I contacted them, Claudio and Margaret have been thoughtful, responsive, responsible and highly professional. My father had recently died and we had to clear everything out of his home prior to its being renovated for another tenant. My mother had pre-deceased Dad and together they had lived in that home for over 30 years. Both were collectors and, as people growing up in the Depression who never wanted to throw anything out, my parents were packrats. Although it was a relatively small home (3 bedrooms, a study, living room, dining room and kitchen), it was full to the brim in things. And much of it held sentimental meanings for our family.

Claudio and Margaret immediately impressed us with their compassion and understanding for our hardships as well as exhibiting clearly their good knowledge of the value of things. They blended their assessments and suggestions for the sale with deep empathy for who our parents were and why they were so loved. It made the entire process so much easier.

Before they arrived, my family and I had sorted through most of my parents’ things. When we were ready and taken those things that we wanted to keep, Claudio and Margaret came in and organized everything perfectly. We were so impressed! They priced everything, they advertised well, they contacted buyers that they knew would be interested and then they produced an estate sale that was memorable, thorough and, for our family, very successful. Their accumulated sales were far greater than we ever expected and have helped us immeasurably in settling my father’s estate. And when they left the building on Sunday after three days of sales, there was literally nothing left! They had completely cleaned it out for us and left it tidy! We were and are delighted!

For anyone in Ventura County or its neighboring regions who has an estate that you want to clear out well and profitably, hire SellingYourEstate.com. You will only be glad of your decision.

I was having no luck selling my truck. Claudio & Maggie listed it on their site & it sold the first day ! I’m very pleased ; very nice people to deal with.

Estate liquidation is a difficult time and it is further complicated when you live in another city many miles away. I initially contacted Selling Your Estate for they presented themselves very professionally through their web site and since they serviced Ventura County I felt that they would provide the best opportunity to attract the buyers needed to clear out my Father’s house. I contacted Claudio and in this time of need I was comforted by his demenour and professionalism. He worked with me to the dates that were convenient with my schedule, he advertised the sale in local publications, and he conducted a great sale to terms that were agreeable with me. All the while I was minimally involved, which is key for as I said I lived far away. What was not sold I donated to a local charity and this too Claudio handled at the conclusion of the multi-day estate sale. When I returned to the house following the sale the house was emptied as promised. Selling Your Estate provided prompt payment of the proceeds and an itemized listing of what was sold and for what price, as well as what had been donated to charity. I highly recommend Selling Your Estate for their estate liquidation services for they were professional, curious, and took the stress out of the whole process.

Dear Claudio & Margaret:

It is with a great deal of gratitude that I send this e-mail to you for the professional services you rendered the Brodbeck family. In light of difficult circumstances, I speak on behalf of Tim and me, in particular, in expressing our appreciation for your diligence, flexibility, and patience while organizing, coordinating, and executing this critical project, on our behalf. I regret not having the opportunity to meet you in person, but the rapport and positive working relationship you established personally with Tim was a huge reassurance to me and of tremendous value to our family.

Thanks again and I wish you continued success for years to come!

Sincerely,

Steve Brodbeck.

Oxnard Estate Sale I want to thank you both for the work you did on our estate. The result of the sale vastly exceed our expectations. You are a treat to work with and you do what you say you will do. It is terribly hard to trust someone these days and my wife and I felt totally comfortable doing business with you. We were truly blessed to find you. Jim Cox.

Dear Claudio & Maggie, We wish to thank you and Maggie for the huge job which you accomplished in such an organized and short period of time. The job of ridding us of about 2/3 of our possessions in a 5,000 sq. ft. home was a hugh burden lifted from our shoulders. We were able to recoup some our of dollars both in the form of cash and additionally in the form of verified charity all in the space of one weeks time. Please know that we would give recommendations to others concerned about doing such a hugh move. Sincerely, Kay & Dr. Charles North

Claudio & Margaret recently managed the estate sale for my mother’s house, including items 80 years old. They worked hard, made creative suggestions, took over everything we didn’t want to deal with, and succeeded both in providing some profit for the estate and in cleaning up a house in which things had accumulated for 54 years. I recommend them to anyone. They were our partners for a week, and we could not have asked for better care.

If you’re considering having an Estate Sale I would highly recommend using SellingYourEstate.com.
On May 3rd and 4th we had an Estate Sale at my Mother’s house in Ventura.
As we live San Luis Obispo, we did not have the time, desire or expertise to do it ourselves.
We hired Claudio & Margret de Medeiros, owners of Selling Your Estate, to handle the entire process.
Before hiring them, we researched different companies in the Ventura area and quickly realized they were the most experienced and the “best fit” for us. We did not know exactly what to expect, so we took a leap of faith and left everything in their hands.

Claudio and Margret organized all the items, priced everything correctly, handled the two day sale and on-site security. They even cleaned up afterwards. We found them to be very knowledgeable, ethical and above all honest.

As a result of their experience and knowledge of current market conditions, our gross sales totaled 300% above what I would have sold everything for just to clean out the house before escrow closed.

We were extremely happy with the entire process and especially the end results.
I would hire them again.

You guys are hard workers, thanks, you guys kicked a__ yesterday. You guys are professional and trustworthy. I usually never give up things like I did to you guys. I am a big hands on person but you guys made me trust you and PUTTING my home into your hands does not come easy for me. My son was shocked that I was not breathing down your throats. This says a lot in my book and apparently my 13-year-old son as well. Please thanks your beautiful wife who has a good heart.

Hi Claudio & Margaret,

Thank you for the fine job you did for us with our estate sale.

We contracted with you as we were combining two households and felt we did not have the time or expertize to sell the furniture and items in the multi-story condo in Oxnard which we planned to lease.
We were extremely satisfied with the professionalism in which you handled our estate sale. You also impressed us with your knowledge of the value of a variety of items and how to price them.
The proceeds from the sale exceeded our expectations, plus the condo was swept clean as promised at the end of the sale, which also pleased us very much.
We would highly recommend Selling Your Estate by Claudio & Margaret to anyone requiring estate liquidation services.

We highly recommend Claudio and Margaret if you are considering an estate sale . They are absolute professionals , knowledgable , trustworthy , effeciant , honest and did exactly what they promised to do in our initial meeting .

Frankly , I have no idea how we would have pulled off a liquidation of nearly EVERYTHING in a home we lived in for over 15 years and possessions we had accumulated over 33 years of marriage without Claudio and Margaret . It was a difficult process but with their help , patience and guidance we accomplished this task . They were very candid from the very beginning as to what our property was worth on the secondary market . They promised to handle EVERYTHING , and they did !

In summary , they are the best !

On a personal note , Claudio and Margaret , thank you so much ! We are safe and sound in our home in Austin and anxiously awaiting the arrival of the pod which contains the few things we had moved .

Claudio and Maggie were a pleasure to work with. They were professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly hard working. They treated my in-laws home and possessions as if they were their own. We would highly recommend their services.

Dear Claudio - I just wanted to send out heartfelt thanks for the wonderful job that you, your wife, Maggie, and son, Louis, did for our family in selling the estate of our parents Even though the estate could easily be classified as "middle class" you and your family came in and prepared the estate items in professionally and in only 3 days You had an immediate knowledge of the items, their pricing, and how to sell them. In addition, you were caring and considerate to our family during the entire process Even though the estate was in a rural area, your marketing drew a very large crowd and nearly everything was sold! Thank you so much- what a relief for the family to have this difficult process so expertly handled by Sell Your Estate! I would recommend your services to everyone!Sincerely, Michael
