Prompt replies, thoughtful questions and answers, caring about our feelings towards all the items in the house and the house itself, patience with my sisters and I, their thoroughness in going through everything (and finding hidden treasures we had overlooked), and the timely manner in which they were able to clear the house for us - these women are amazing at getting the job done. Yes...there is cost involved, and for us, it was totally worth every penny because it allowed us time to process and grieve the passing of our mother. I highly recommend Sorted Estates!

It is humanly impossible for 25 people in about 20 cars to arrive, sign in, and drive away in that time , especially when no one was visible outside the house. If that's truly possible, maybe I should be contacting Guinness World Records instead of leaving reviews. Very poor experience with this company today. I saw an estate sale posted online and, since I live in the neighborhood, decided to check it out. We arrived at 6:03 a.m.--just three minutes after the address was posted--yet there were already 25 people on the list. No one was around the house or double parked, which makes it obvious the owner shares the address with friends or frequent customers before it's posted. It's also clear the company caters to dealers, both through this practice and the low prices they give them. This is disappointing and unfair to the families who trust them to handle their loved ones' estates. Please be cautious--other companies will provide fairer prices and more transparency. I will not be returning to any future sales.

As a Realtor with more than 36 years of experience, I've worked with many estate sale companies…read moreover the years, and to be honest, my experiences have often been less than impressive. Then I met Pete Banchieri from Alameda Estate Sales, and he completely changed my perspective. Pete took on one of the most challenging estate sales I've ever encountered. The home had been owned by the same family for more than 40 years, and it was filled with decades' worth of belongings. What impressed me most was Pete's incredible work ethic and attention to detail. He spent weeks carefully sorting valuables​, donations, ​selling certain things online, arranging for appropriate items to be auctioned, and researching historical documents and collectibles, organizing the contents, and thoughtfully preparing everything for the sale.​ Because I had the opportunity to visit the property several times throughout the process, I was able to see firsthand the amount of work, care, and professionalism Pete and his team brought to the job. I was genuinely blown away by the transformation and the level of effort they invested. Pete and his crew did an outstanding job from start to finish. They exceeded every expectation and completely changed my previous apprehension about the estate sale industry. I highly recommend Pete and Alameda Estate Sales, and I will absolutely be using them for all of my future estate sale needs.

I went to the estate sale on Glen Dr in San Leandro last week. It would have given them a five star but as I was checking out, I noticed someone at the tables on the opposite side of me, looking at two loppers. I mentioned that I didn't notice the loppers earlier to the cashier (who was super sweet). She turned around to look at the loppers, then asked her colleague, who was stationed at the jewelry, if the loppers were on hold for someone. Instead of hearing what she was saying, he thought it was appropriate to get angry at the customer who was looking at them. He was so angry that he must have forgotten how to be a human, because basically just yelled at the customer, saying "No!" and huffed as he furiously waved to where I was standing, indicating that the customer should be on the side where I was standing. Did he think the customer couldn't speak English? Is that why he stopped using his words and just waved his hands? From a customers perspective, this was wildly off putting. Even my partner and his mom and the lady who checked me out were shocked.

The sale I attended in Larkspur was extremely well organized, especially when it came to pricing and item placement in the home. The experience felt even better knowing you were working with a local family-run business that genuinely cares about both clients and customers, rather than a large corporate company that rushes people through and overlooks the small interactions that matter. Michael's wife Claudia was great to work with, and Yuri and Jerikah were friendly and helpful as well. Michael himself was patient, respectful to negotiate with, and completely open when answering questions. They also post clear photos of items ahead of time on their website, which saves a lot of time. I'd absolutely go to another Blue Moon Estate Sale and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone considering attending a sale or hiring them for one of their services.

Martin and Valetta are the best!…read more My wife and I miss them and their biz, which we call, "The Candy Store". I am responding to the recent one star reviews. Fine Estate Sales will do their best to sell your product, or items in your estate. It is your decision to set a special price for an item, or, let their experts set the price. If you are not happy with this business, then let them know and negotiate. Be a business person and DEAL WITH the problem with the source. Deal with it as a business owner, instead of writing a long boring novel that lost my attention after merely looking at the size of the review. Everyone needs to understand, Fine Estate Sales, or any similar company, is not Macy's, Nordstroms, Nieman Marcus or Louis Vuitton, etc. So unless you set a price, or negotiate a contract before signing or amend the contract, there lies an agreement, hand shake, i.e. a contract. I understand you may not be happy, however, as I mentioned above, deal with it, and work with Martin and Valetta. They are here to make money for you and them. Thank you for everything Martin and Valetta, and miss The Candy Store.

This review is long overdue, but I honestly don't know how I would have navigated my brother's estate without them. ​Kim is incredible to work with. She brought so much compassion to a tough situation, but she is also a total professional who knows how to get things done. She helped organize a clear plan for everything, including the junk haul and moving logistics. We opted not to do an estate sale, but it is nice to know it's a service they offer. The efficiency and speed at which the team was able to get the house cleared out really helped so we could start renovations before selling it. They truly lighten the load when you need it most, and at a reasonable rate. I cannot recommend them enough!

Sometimes when you attend an estate sale there's not much you want to take home with you, but at this sale I wanted everything! They had a great selection of furniture, fine China, crystals, and a lot of vintage pieces from the 1930s-1960s. What I was most impressed by was their customer service. They had at least one employee working each room of the house that were available to answer any questions customers had. The checkout process was smooth and easy. They even offered the option to pay by PayPal which is a major plus if you're not carrying enough cash. If you need to sell everything in your home and don't want to go through the hassle yourself I highly recommend contacting this company! They will sell everything for you and even offer an abatement service for the items left over that you need to get rid of. They also offer to clean the entire house out so that it's ready to list for sale. Trust me you will be very satisfied with their service!
