Deceased estate preparation, clearance and cleaning​

We understand that it can be an incredibly difficult time when a loved one passes away, and often, the last thing you’ll want to do is start clearing out their house. If their home was privately owned, you’ll have plenty of time to meticulously sort through their belongings, making the situation a little easier to deal with. However, if they lived in rented accommodation, you’ll more than likely be against the clock when it comes to clearing out the house.

Locate important documents

This task can prove to be difficult and very time consuming, especially when the person who has recently passed hasn’t told you where any of it can be found. Sometimes they can be hidden in the strangest of places, so don’t rule any locations out. Significantly important documents include:

Sort through personal belongings

This will most likely be the most difficult part of clearing out your loved one’s house. Start by making piles: to keep, to sell and to throw away. If you have the luxury of time, then don’t rush this process, it’s important that you’re hanging on to and throwing away the appropriate items – you wouldn’t want to mix them up!

Preparing the house for a new resident

If the property was privately owned:

We can assist with Taking items off the walls, take down window dressings if required and then give the place a thorough clean. This will allow a prospective buyer to see the property’s maximum potential.

If the property was rented:

It’s always best to ask the estate agents or landlord to sight the lease agreement Your loved one would have signed a contract which should outline the condition in which the house should be left in once the premises is vacated. Often, it’s expected that the house be left in the condition in which it was found, so it’s best we ensure the place is clean.
But ask the estate agent, landlord or simply look over the contract, just to be sure.

Contact us for a telephone consultation

You can contact us at any time to arrange for an initial phone consultation, 045 991 1009. These consultations normally take about 15 minutes, to half an hour and we will arrange to visit the property to allow us to give you an accurate quote Our aim during this meeting is to acquaint ourselves with your situation and priorities. By doing this, we can get a clear picture of your needs, and what needs to be done to meet them.

We will develop a service outline and a quote

When our initial meeting is complete, we will have enough information to form a plan. We call this our service outline. Basically, this is the approach we will take to respectfully and efficiently manage your loved one’s possessions as we clear the deceased estate property. Typically, this service outline will consist of two phases, firstly the respectful clearance of possessions and then secondly the preparation of the property for the sale or rental market. Always within 24 hours of our telephone consultation, we will provide you with a fixed fee quotation as well as the service outline on how this will be delivered.

We will commence the clearance process

If you are satisfied with our service outline and confirm the engagement of our services we can organise a time to begin the clearance process. Of course, we will work closely with you to make sure that your expectations are met. Typically, we only require access to the property for 3-5 days. This timeframe allows us to complete all the necessary clearance activities. In most cases, we can begin work as early as 2 days after confirmation. In addition, we can generally prepare a property for sale or rent within 7 days of confirmation.
