Everything the Estate Property Needs, Under One Coordinator.

Families rarely need only one of these. They need someone to sequence all of them correctly and stay accountable from the first box to the final walkthrough.

Estate and inherited properties are our primary focus. We also coordinate property work for senior transitions, downsizing, trust-owned homes, and difficult make-readies.

New to this? See how the five-step process works. If the property is in Texas and you are not, we can coordinate everything remotely. Attorneys, Realtors and fiduciaries can work with us on a client's property.

Contents & Cleanout Property Care Repairs & Renovations Market-Ready Preparation

Contents & Cleanout

A lifetime of belongings is rarely a logistics problem alone. We work through the home methodically — keepsakes first, then items of resale value, then donations, then removal — so nothing meaningful is lost in the rush to empty a house. Families receive photographs of rooms and notable items before anything is moved, which is often the difference between a smooth process and a difficult family conversation.

Everything inside the house, handled with respect and in the right order.

Room-by-room sorting and photo inventory of notable items
Keepsake identification, separation, and safe holding for family pickup or shipping
Estate sale coordination, consignment, and auction referrals where contents warrant it
Donation coordination with local DFW charities, with receipts provided
Document and valuables search — wills, deeds, titles, insurance papers, photographs
Full cleanout and responsible disposal, including garage, attic, and outbuildings
Appliance, furniture, and mattress removal
Sensitive-condition cleanouts, including hoarding and long-vacancy situations

Property Care

Between the day the home empties and the day it changes hands, someone has to keep the grass down, the utilities managed, and an eye on the roof and pipes. That is one of the quietest costs of an estate property and one of the easiest to hand off. We provide recurring care on a schedule so the property never announces to the neighborhood that no one is watching it.

A vacant house in Texas does not stay presentable on its own.

Recurring lawn mowing, edging, and seasonal landscape trimming
Exterior tidy-up: gutters, walkways, debris, and storm cleanup
Interior and exterior deep cleaning, including carpets and windows
Pest and rodent inspection and treatment coordination
Utility coordination and monitoring so pipes and HVAC are protected
Periodic occupancy and security checks with photo confirmation
Winterization and freeze-prep before Texas cold snaps
Trash service, mail, and vendor access management

Repairs & Renovations

From deferred maintenance and minor repairs to painting, flooring, roofing and larger renovations, we coordinate and manage the work needed to prepare the property for what's next. We source and schedule approved contractors and trades, meet them at the property, verify work against the written scope, and confirm any change with you before it is authorized.

From minor repairs to larger renovations, approved contractors and trades are coordinated and supervised for you.

Roof, gutter, and fascia repair coordination with licensed roofers
Plumbing, electrical, and HVAC repair and replacement through licensed trades
Foundation and drainage evaluation coordination with qualified specialists
Drywall, texture, trim, and interior door repair
Flooring: carpet, tile, laminate, and hardwood refinishing
Kitchen and bathroom updates, from refresh to full renovation
Water damage and mold remediation coordination with certified specialists
Fencing, garage doors, siding, and exterior repair

Market-Ready Preparation

Buyers form an opinion in the first ninety seconds. We focus effort where it visibly matters — light, cleanliness, paint, curb appeal, and the smell of a home that has been cared for — and we tell you honestly when a project will cost more than it is likely to contribute. We work comfortably alongside the family's real estate agent, or we can introduce licensed professionals if one has not been chosen.

The house should show as well as it possibly can, without wasted spending.

Interior painting in neutral, buyer-friendly finishes
Lighting, hardware, and plumbing fixture updates
Curb appeal: landscaping refresh, mulch, pressure washing, front door refinishing
Move-in-ready deep clean, including cabinets, ovens, and grout
Light staging and de-personalization for photography
Photo-ready final detailing and pre-listing walkthrough
Coordination with the family's listing agent on timing and access
Post-inspection repair coordination once the home is under contract

Scope & Pricing

Nothing Starts Without a Written Scope.

Every service above is quoted as a defined phase with a cost range, a start point, and an end point. Conditions inside estate homes are frequently worse than they appear from the driveway — if something we find changes the scope, we document it, price it, and wait for your written approval before proceeding.

Estate Exit Services coordinates property work and performs general non-licensed labor directly. Trade work requiring licensure — electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, structural, and remediation — is performed by appropriately licensed and insured contractors. We do not provide legal, tax, or appraisal advice. Real estate brokerage services, when applicable, are provided separately by appropriately licensed professionals under separate agreements.
