Help for Executors, Administrators & Attorneys
Handling Estate Settlement Issues Is Never Easy
Whether you are a newly appointed executor or administrator, or an attorney hired by the estate or appointed by the court, it’s almost certain that tough times are ahead.
First, there are the clear emotional challenges of the situation. Often, the person selected as the Personal Representative (executor or administrator) to handle the deceased’s probate matters is also someone who is still mourning the loss of that loved one or friend. Then, that same individual must face the additional challenge of making numerous decisions in areas where they have no prior experience.
These decisions must be made under the pressure of knowing that the outcomes will likely be closely examined and questioned by family and/or friends. Combine this with the genuine worry that everything must be managed correctly and legally, along with all the horror stories about probates that have gone wrong, and the stress really starts to increase.
Even if there is no real estate involved, this is a significant task. When real estate is part of the equation, the burden becomes even greater.
In recent years, through both personal and professional experiences, we have gained a strong understanding of the challenges that come with managing the personal property and home or other real estate left by a loved one.
Our Mission
Our goal is to help you complete the sale and disposition process with unmatched honesty and integrity, unlike any other Auctioneer, Appraiser, Firearms Dealer, or Realtor. Every situation is different, so our first step is to listen carefully to your needs, wishes, concerns, and goals. Honesty and integrity will guide us throughout the entire process.
Once you make your decision, we are here to assist you with your probate property, regardless of the garage, business, household contents, or real estate challenges you may face.
“My auction settlement arrived Tuesday and to say I am very pleased is an understatement. Not only did I watch the amount of work that went in to preparing, but the clockwork and efficiency on auction day was nothing short of outstanding. Not only yourselves but the crew that works with you was phenomenal. You took a daunting situation off my shoulders and made it something positive. I sincerely thank you for all you did and want you to be aware that I felt as though you treated us more as friends than clients, and that matters most. All the best to you and whenever someone needs your expertise, Legacy Auction will be the name I pass on.”

We Can Make This Tough Task Far Less Stressful
Be aware that no one should ever tell you that being an executor or administrator can be stress-free because decisions will indeed have to be made. As an experienced Auctioneer, Firearms dealer, and REALTOR, our team will make sure that you are always well-informed in regard to these decisions.
If you haven’t yet secured the services of an attorney, we can help you choose one whose good work we know, and who we are comfortable recommending. We can also help you with some of the difficult conversations you may need to have with family members if asked. Of course, you’ll still have to make some choices, but having us as an adviser by your side makes the task significantly less lonely.
