With my 20+ of international experience, leave your worries in my hands, to clear out the estate of family & loved ones.
As a fellow American in Paris, I understand the unique challenges of managing a family inheritance from abroad. The language barriers, the bureaucracy, the logistics—it can be overwhelming.
I handle it all, from A to Z.
My expertise goes beyond a simple clear-out:
Curated Purging: I carefully and quickly, with a lifelong, very careful & objective & subjective view, sort through everything—valuables, clothing, kitchens, caves, heirlooms, and items for donation—with an experienced eye for antiques and quality.
I professionally and carefully preserve & inventory all documents, personal and business, for your review, carefully guarding bank statements, taxes & legal documents with an eye and understanding of each type of document, whether in French or English. You receive an XLS file of the inventory.
Trusted Network: I have a trusted local and international network of tradespeople, companies & organizations to move things, provide safe and secured storage, to donate items to, and a wide network of local FB groups to sell and give things to, as well as the legal disposal of large, unwanted items. I can evaluate & value precious items and arrange private sale and EU & UK auctions, for everything from collectibles to fine art & estate jewelry.
I work efficiently, get in, get out, get the job done. I know timelines, but I also realistically know Paris and how she works.
Your On-the-Ground Partner: I am your trusted, English-speaking point of contact here in Paris, managing the entire project so you don’t have to.
I can also be coerced to work on-site and on estates throughout France, in residency, as it were, on projects from start to finish, given availability, and frankly, how interesting the project is.
From organizing the clear-out to managing the renovation, I provide a clear, empathetic, and professional solution. You can have peace of mind knowing your family's property is in trusted hands.
