House, apartment, studio, artist's loft, even the dreaded cave.....

Clearing a house or apartment after a death requires careful & compassionate attention to detail, and our astute willingness to create a realistic & objective, positive outcome for everyone involved.

Our decades of international expertise lies in home & estates with quality furnishings, fine, couture & vintage clothing & jewelry; art & collections of books and décor. We can provide detailed inventory & informed research on valuables & provenance as well as realistic estimations for sale & auction.

We curate & manage items & collections -- large and small -- for auction & private sale, and handle the negotiations & disbursement of final funds.

As a fellow American in Paris, I understand the unique challenges of managing a loved one's 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 carefullyand quickly, with a lifelong, very careful & objective & subjective view, sort through everything—valuables, clothing, heirlooms, and items for donation—with an experienced eye for antiques and quality. I can provide a professionally detailed Xls inventory for you, as part of the entire service.

I carefully preserve & inventory all documents, personal and business for your review, carefully guarding bank statements, taxes & legal documents.

• Trusted Network: I have a trusted local and international network of tradespeople & companies and 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 value precious items and arrange private sale or auctions, suitable for every item, from collectibles to fine art & estate jewelry.

 I work with a team of reliable, highly skilled and trusted local tradespeople to manage your remodeling projects, from kitchen and bathroom renovations to a fresh coat of paint, or down to the rafters, gutted and renovated and restored.

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.
  
  

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.

Our primary location is in the heart of Paris. We of course can work in the suburbs, and well, pretty much wherever the job takes us. We can locally source services for cleaning, storage, disposal, sales & donations.

We have worked across France & Belgium on many projects, from Normandy & Brittany, in the cities of Paris & Bruxelles & in the heart of Provence & along the Cote d'Azur from Menton to St. Tropez. We can lodge near or on site for vetted projects, and have our own accommodation in a number of regions across France.
