OPTIONS Estate Sale Services

"Hey Russ, it is tax time!!! We have not forgotten about you. Just want to let you know my 97 year old father passed away. Thank goodness he never found out how you took advantage of him. He worked very hard all his life. Don't forget to report that extra money you "found" that belonged to my father after the estate sale. SHAME on you!!!!!!"

"Caring and diligent service, from the initial interview to the final clearing out. Options came through. They were honest and thoughtful, especially with my Mothers jewelry, the appraisal and sale of which was time consuming for them."

"I hired Lezlie recently to do an estate sale for my mother's home after moving her to Florida. As an only child I had so many responsibilities on my shoulders. I wanted to do a good job of taking care of her estate and I needed help to do it. Options Estate Sale Services were the answer to my prayers. Lezlie and her team had everything sorted, sold, donated and the entire home cleaned out in three weeks time. A task I could have never done alone. I was able to mark this task off of my extensive "to-do" list without ever leaving Florida. They also sent me a check for the proceeds immediately after the sale. They paid US to do an overwhelming job that would have taken so much time and money for travel. I highly recommend them and would further add that communication was easy and effective. Give them a call and then get out of the way and let them do their thing. You won't be sorry!"

"We recently had Lezlie and Russ back for a second estate sale. I highly recommend their services, they saved us so much time, energy, and made the process incredibly easy!! They’re so professional, I loved working with them and would recommend working with them to ANYONE. I still cannot believe how easy and simple the process was. Thank you Options Team!"

"These people were going on & on about their “next chapter” & how happy they were with this estate sale company who was so professional & honest! They said one day everything was there & within weeks, during May 2023, everything was gone & the house was ready to be sold! I asked them why don’t you write a review if you liked them so much & they said, “we don’t know how to” - you can do it…I was like, what!?? They said, yeah you do it for us - we will tell you how it went. HA-HA, they already had! LOL. Well, here goes, on their behalf….This is about OPTIONS ESTATE SALES in May 2023 from Centerville, OH. First meeting with OPTIONS went really well; together, they walked through the house, garage & outside, including the outside storage. They talked about the attic - but the homeowners (HO) said there wasn’t anything there. They said their closets were full, the cabinets were full, but nothing seemed to affect the OPTIONS people as unachievable. They talked about when to have the sale - it seemed like the HO didn’t think there would be a little wait to get a sale scheduled, so they do recommend to call OPTIONS sooner than later. There are only so many weekends in the year - especially good weather. And, they wanted to figure out when to sell the house, too. So, they all agreed on a schedule. After HO went through the house to get all their personal stuff out, they planned a trip & gave the keys to OPTIONS for them to take care of everything. That included selling the items in the home, except what would go with the house, & then allowing the HO to review things for donating what might be left or using other resources for cleanout & trash service to ensure an empty house. They offered cleaning at the end, but the HO said they would get someone for that. When OPTIONS was prepping the house, they found a shoe/boot box in the bottom in the back underneath clothes & other boxes of shoes, behind other stuff, but no boots in this box! It was full of other really important personal stuff & some extremely valuable stuff - the HO missed it. So, OPTIONS called the HO right away to let them know they found the box & immediately the HO knew what it was & told OPTIONS there were some old or gold coins & other items we won’t name, but they were out of town & couldn’t get it right away. OPTIONS secured it & ensured them when they returned, they could pick it up. When the HO returned, they were so thankful they got it back; NOTHING WAS MISSING & everything was in PERFECT ORDER - totally happy to get it back & to the point, the HO said they were so mad at themselves for having forgotten it in the first place. I guess it goes to show no matter how many decades you live in a house, you stash things & apparently sometimes forget where & what you have! Later OPTIONS found some significant cash in a drawer - again, the HO got it back! The HO was so impressed with the honesty & attentiveness of the OPTIONS people. During the actual sale, there was a big furniture thing, & some lower offers than anticipated (they talked up front about it), so as agreed, OPTIONS called the HO for their input, & the HO told them to do their best & it sold! The HO told me that OPTIONS told them that sometimes, things you think will sell fast don’t & things you think won’t sell, do…. That was accurate also - some artwork they loved thought would sell - well, nobody must have liked them-a taste thing, I suppose. They didn’t sell & the HO opted to let them be donated. At the end, there were the proceeds from the sale! The HO was so very pleasantly surprised. The HO said they really didn’t have any big surprises based on what OPTIONS told them in the beginning. The HO said OPTIONS was so PROFESSIONAL, HELPFUL, COMMUNICATED WELL, VERY HONEST, THOROUGH & GREAT TO WORK WITH & the biggest thing, the HOUSE WAS EMPTY at the end & they could start that "new chapter" without the burden of what they needed to do - so glad that portion was behind them & thankful for OPTIONS helping them achieve their goal! PS, the HO had a lot more to say, but I ran out of room!!"
