General

What does Estate Group do differently than any other company?
Estate Group takes care of everything regarding the real property including contents removal, cleaning up the property and taking it off the executors' hands by either purchasing the property or having it sold through a Realtor. Other companies handle only one facet of the property such as hiring an auctioneer who handles content removal only and only selects items they want to auction off.

How long has Estate Group been in business?
Estate Group started out buying estate properties in “as-is” condition for several years, before deciding to help executors deal with all the other parts of the property such as removal of contents, "house is cleaned out and Garbage is disposed of”

What are the fees associated with having Estate Group handle the estate property?
Our initial assessment of your situation is complimentary. Based on your needs, we will create a customized program suitable to your needs. Our packaged services are less expensive for you than if you were to purchase them individually.

Executors

Will Estate Group give me a good price for the property?
Estate Group will offer you a good price for the home based on the condition “as-is.” We base the price on what has sold in the area over the last year and how much it would cost us to get the home in top market condition.
Back to top.

What if I don't accept the offer Estate Group has presented?
Estate Group understands if you want the top price you can get for the home and other properties. We would then discuss the other services we can provide such as holding an estate sale, taking care of the lawn, rubbish removal, antique appraising and fixing the home to ensure you get the best price for the home.

How can I trust Estate Group will take care of everything?
Estate Group has only the best people working with them to ensure everything is done in a very professional, timely manner. We also understand executors who live out of town may be apprehensive, so we'll note that in our agreement with you as to how often you want to hear from us. We not only have to answer to you, but we may have to answer to your attorney, so we always strive for excellence in everything we do.

Estate Group is an unbiased company that makes recommendations based on the needs of the estate. We also recommend the executor talk to the beneficiaries and heirs before making a decision.

Can we help the executor make the decisions regarding the services you can provide?

How do we know Estate Group is getting the best prices for the contents of the home?
Estate Group will go through all the items in the home to determine if a garage sale, tag sale or estate sale is in order and if we need to get an appraisal for some very valuable items that should be sold separately.

Attorneys

Our firm already uses a tag sale company to handle everything for us. Why should we use Estate Group?
Estate Group not only holds a tag sale or an estate sale, but also ensures the home is repaired by replacing the roof, painting, carpeting and waterproofing the basement. We also take care of the lawn, donate items and haul away the trash. Estate Group is an all-inclusive company. All of your needs are handled wiht a single phone call. Estate Group will even purchase the home in “as-is” condition.
Back to top.

Why should I recommend Estate Group to my clients?
Estate Group takes care of everything from purchasing the home in “as-is” condition to taking care of everything else associated with getting the property sold. You don't need to check with your client every week to make sure everything is being accomplished. Make one phone call for a complete update.
Back to top.

How will Estate Group benefit me as the attorney?
Since Estate Group takes care of everything, we are committed to getting the estate closed in a very timely manner, so you can help more clients at the same time. We get the case closed quickly.

Another benefit is that some attorneys don't have the necessary staff on hand to complete the essential details during the probate process. Estate Group would, in essence, become your staff and allow you more time for probate cases. We take care of everything for you.

Funeral Directors

Why should we recommend Estate Group to our clients?

The client makes one phone call to us and we take care of everything. We give your client peace. It also shows your client that you ttruly care about finding the best possible solution for their needs.

How is Estate Group different from a Realtor?
It's true that some realtors offer services such as estate sales, cleaning homes and auctioneer services, but Estate Group goes beyond. We ensure the home is repaired to top market condition, taking care of lawn care needs and donating items on behalf of the executor. Estate Group is an all-inclusive company.
Back to top.

How can Estate Group manage all the activities of the deceased's home and/or properties?

A Satisfied Client

“Thank you Estate Group for making my life much easier than we anticipated. We had so much to do with very little time to take out all the contents in the home, repair the home and clean it. By taking care of all the contents and getting the house ready for our Realtor to sell, we were able to have our nights and weekends free.”

- Nancy K., Executor, Columbus, OH
