probate HOUSE CLEARANCEs 

We understand the love of a lost family member can be a very daunting and unpleasant time for all involved.

We work closely with solicitors on your behalf in arranging the removal of household goods from houses in and around Gloucestershire.

We have undertaken a number of deceased house clearances in recent years and will work with you or the deceased solicitor in ensuring all items are cleared from the home of the deceased.

If there are items of value, we will document/appraise and advise of what could be done with the said items, be it auction house or charitable donation.

We deal with several auction houses in Gloucestershire and will try to get you the best price possible.

Charitable donations are always welcome and will go on to provide assistance to somebody local.

A Typical House Clearance Includes:

1

Inventory

The first step in valuing house contents for probate is creating an inventory list of all items in the home. This includes furniture, appliances, artwork, jewellery, clothing, books, and any other personal belongings. It’s advisable to categorize these items based on their type or room location to make the valuation process easier.

2

AUCTION HOUSE

For valuable items such as antiques, artwork or jewellery, it may be necessary to hire a professional appraiser who specialises in these types of goods. They have expertise in determining an item’s worth based on factors like age, condition, rarity and market demand.

3

Valuation

Once you have determined the value of all items, document this information thoroughly. This documentation will be necessary for probate proceedings and for tax purposes. It’s also a good idea to take photographs of valuable items as a visual record.

4

Legal advice

The probate process can be complex and laws vary by location, so it may be beneficial to seek legal advice. An attorney experienced in estate law can guide you through the process and ensure all legal requirements are met.
