Real estate, downsizing, moving -
We’ll take care of everything as your trusted downsizing partner
Many people who are in a life transition delay downsizing for months, or even years, because they get overwhelmed.
You won’t have to scan the yellow pages looking for service providers, nor sit on hold to secure estimates, nor remind the moving guy to be more gentle with your inherited china.
We’ll contact and manage our trusted and qualified partners to do all the work for you. Your only responsibility is to select the best options for you - and we’ll carry out all your directions.
You’ll get assigned a dedicated transition partner. She will stay with you until all your items are unboxed and your china is unpacked back in the china cabinet in your new place!

What makes us different from standard real-estate agents?
Our duty is to look out for your best interest.
We operate as a single agent (not a transactional broker) which means we have a fiduciary responsibility only towards the seller - you.
Just like your doctor or legal attorney, we’re obliged by law to look out for your best interest.
Our motivations are aligned with yours since our fees are paid upon the sale of your estate and items.
Lastly, you can trust us with 100% confidentiality - we never disclose anything with anyone without your written permission. Your privacy is guaranteed.
We’re here as your transition project partner
Typically, a real estate agent would refer you to ‘recommended’ companies offering cleaning, moving, auction sales - leaving you responsible for organizing everything.. Heaps of headaches.
We save you the hassle and do the heavy lifting for you - allowing you to make the transition without worry..
Because our team handles every step of the process, you can move on to the next stage of your life without costly miscommunications, annoying delays and unexpected mix-ups
You have our full attention
We have a maximum number of estates that each of our associates can handleat a time.
Our team meets weekly, sometimes daily, to ensure every aspect of your transition is executed on time.
Real estate agents often take on as many properties as possible hoping at least one property sells. So overwhelmed by all the properties they are managing leaving clients hanging and not returning their phone calls.
Our model is different -we don’t chase business. We’re responsible for every single account and our job in only done when you’re fully satisfied with your transition.
