Preparing to Downsize

Questions to ask yourself when downsizing

When making the decision to downsize for whatever reason, several questions may come to mind:
  1. What are my possessions worth?
  2. Where do I take my possessions?
  3. Am I giving away a treasure?
  4. How can I make this fair to my heirs?
  5. What do I do when my children do not want my things?
  6. How do I sell my items?
  7. Do I need formal, written appraisals?
  8. How do I know my items are going to the right hands?

About Life Transitions

Life Transitions is owned and operated by Carol Edwards, a graduate of College of the Appraisers. Carol has been a certified personal property appraiser for over 25 years. She has helped clients realize the value of their treasures. Through the inspection of a client’s items, Carol once discovered a rare and important antique lamp that later sold for over $56,000 at auction. The client had no idea! This is just one example of the many wonderful items that have been discovered for clients and their property was appropriately appraised and sold for the maximum value.

If an item is best sold at auction, Life Transitions has working relationships with all of the larger auction houses in the US and abroad, and will help walk you through the process to get you the maximum price for your items.

We offer a one-hour-long free consultation.
