Estate Liquidation Services

Cheryl was professional and responsive throughout the estate sale process.  This particular sale was complicated due to some family circumstances that resulted in changes throughout the process.  Cheryl remained flexible, and treated everyone in my family very well.  In addition due to her help the house was sold within two weeks of the estate sale.  This helped us to move forward in resettling my mother-in-law in her new residence.  I would highly recommend her services.

My mother passed away with a house full of furniture and household goods as well as a basement full of items accumulated over several decades. Estate Liquidation Services by Marc Dlugos provided a great service in sorting through those items, professionally setting up all items of value in a manner attractive to potential buyers, marketing and getting a good crowd out for the sale, handling the sale and quickly disposing of items that could not be sold. All in all it was a great experience working with this firm, especially during the days immediately leading up to and including the sale weekend. On the negative side there were a few appointment mixups as well as an unanticipated one week delay in the sale, which is why I graded the firm a "C" for punctuality. The pricing was fair and reasonable.

My mother, brother, and I were very pleased with all of the services performed by Marc.

My mother was a hoarder. My siblings and I had spent nine months removing trash and family items from the house. I still had rooms filled with kitchen ware, linens, Christmas decorations and ornaments, books, note cards, stationery, postcards, albums, knickknacks, old clothing, toys, puzzles, etc. There was some furniture, but nothing of high quality. There were items in the basement that hadn't seen the light of day for 40 years. Marc and his crew sorted and priced what was left in the house, conducted an estate sale over a weekend, and disposed of whatever didn't sell. I paid for advertising(the $303.50). 35% of total sales went to him, and I was charged for clean-up and for disposal of items that could not be handled by weekly trash services(for instance an upright piano and an ancient freezer). The proceeds of the sale covered the latter costs. I feel Marc explained to me the whole process, was fair with his prices, and he managed to do in a week what would have taken me many more months to do. Plus, I would have had to pay someone to haul away the freezer and piano and other heavy items. There was one time when he forgot he had a meeting with me(that explains the lower grade on punctuality),but he was easy to reach by phone at all times. I can't comment on his accuracy in appraising items, because that was not my focus. I just wanted everything out of the house, and he accomplished that goal for me.

This company is very professional. They treat your property and items with such care and respect, whether you are down sizing or hiring them for the estate of a lost loved one. Their prices are very fair, which attracts a lot of buyers for your sale to ensure that you receive the most money for your items. This company is definitely one that cares about the client first.
