Destin Estate Sales

Chris is extremely responsive, professional and trustworthy. He and his team are very organized and did a great job staging and marketing. They made a difficult job look easy! Chris kept us informed every step along the way and communicated well with the real estate agent who was selling my mom's house. What a stress reliever it is to have him handling things!Cam McFeeters June 2021

Chris and Team are awesome to work with at a time when you need help and expertise. Very Professional and make the process very easy. We live in Chicago and Chris went above and beyond for us given we couldn't be there. They are the best in the business and I highly recommend them! Thank you for everything!Marla LaheyApril 2021

Chris and his team do a great job from first call to follow up. He has the experience and energy to organize and manage your sale. He also has resources to help with the hard to manage items and clean out afterwards. I was very happy with the results of our sale.Connie AhaltAugust 2021

Chris was exceptional to work with. Even when he was not available he was trying to find other folks to recommend, but in the end he was able to get it done and we couldn't have asked for a better person to help with this Estate Sale. From start to finish, he took care of everything. We will definitely be using him again in the future, and highly recommend you to do the same :)Roxxanne Wells December 2021

Chris and the crew did a fantastic job on getting my parents place organized and carrying out an Estate Sale. The place was really a mess, especially the garage and they got it organized and squared away. I highly recommend them!Dean Chamberlain February 2022

I have only positive comments about my experience with Chris and Destin Estate Sales. The entire project was handled extremely well; Chris was available for questions and advice on a situation during a difficult time that I had not much knowledge of. Start to finish it was a win for all included. I will definitely recommend Destin Estate Sales.Julian Elges March 2022

My wife and I were faced with the daunting task of settling her parents estate after their passing...Frankly, we were overwhelmed with the thought of having to sort through and dispose of all of their accumulated treasures and trash...literally. Through a referral, we reached out to Chris with Destin Estate Sales, he came promptly, assessed the scale of the work and said that he loved a challenge and would jump in and get everything sorted, organized and sell anything that we as a family didn't want to keep. He and his team showed up on the promised day, giving us time to go through the personal effects and separate the heirloom items. We were buoyed by their enthusiasm as they went through everything and were respectful of our parents home. My wife and I both work full-time, and could never have gotten it done with out Chris and his team. We trust them completely and count them as friends...Good people...as the saying goes! They have our respect and gratitude for all they did and the burden they lifted from our shoulders. Thanks again Chris you've definitely earned 5 STARS!!!Frank Janssen June 2022

Destin Estate Sales is professional from start to finish. I appreciated that the owner kept me apprised throughout the process, so I knew exactly what to expect and when it would happen. They responded immediately to my initial inquiry and got the job done quickly and efficiently. Thanks for making it easy, Chris and team!!Scheryl Fink June 2022

Best online Estate Sale we've taken part in for sure. Chris had everything so professionally set from photos to communicating with us about pickup location and times and answering questions we had. Overall great experience! Definitely will look for his sales in the future!Lynn Watkins December 2022

I wasn't sure what to expect when Chris walked into my parent's house and was hit head on with the enormous amount of craft supplies and fabric that had been collected over the years. Chris took on the challenge and he and his team did an amazing job. I felt he and his wife went over and above contacting local quilt guilds and sewing shops to generate the traffic needed to make the sale a success. I was very pleased with the open and constant communication, as well as respect Chris and his team treated the house and belongings. I was sent pictures and updates along this journey. They ensured the neighbors weren't disrupted during the sale days with the traffic and parking. At the end, Chris coordinated the final cleanout of the house and transferring of keys to our realtor. Being out of state, it was vital that I trust and have confidence in Destin Estate Sales. Chris made this difficult process, easy and stress free. I would highly recommend using their services.Laura Bucci December 2022

Our home is in a gated community which allows no estate or garage sales. Destin Estate Sales devised a plan for our estate sale using the internet to show the sale items, and having prospective customers come to inspect by appointment only. Their plan was approved by the Homeowners Association. The ultimate results probably do not compare with a traditional estate sale, but were far better than I expected. I give this company high marks for trying something new, and being successful with it.Stanley Davis December 2022

Chris and team at Destin Estate Sales did a great job handling the sale for my parents. They transformed a very cluttered house into a fantastic showroom! They even found a family heirloom ring and cameo that had been long misplaced, and returned it to us.Steve Jackson January 2023

Chris and his team are just amazing and so professional. They were organized and took care of literally everything. We had to navigate so much from Colorado and Chris was able to get in, get everything set up and get the best price for the entire estate. He also got everything left picked up for donations. I could not have asked for a more seamless or more professional experience. Anyone needing to go through the estate-sale process needs to work with Destin Estate Sales. Thank you for making this such a wonderful experience!! Lisa PotterLisa Potter January 2022

We had to move our mother from FL to MO unexpectedly due to health reasons. We contacted Chris at Destin Estate Sales. He and his crew made an overwhelmingly stressful situation an effortless experience. He is professional, honest and fair. I simply can not say enough great things about this company. We had contacted other auction services in the area who were rude and very greedy. It is so nice to have done business with Destin Estate Sales. They are very genuine and down to earth. We felt we received a higher return than what was expected. Highly recommend, you won't be sorry.Gerri Jeffries February 2023

Chris Schaefer and the Destin Estate Sales team are the utmost professionals!
We didn't know what to expect but he did not disappoint. He was efficient and detailed and did everything he said he would do, and with amazing proficiency. He was extremely knowledgeable about pricing. He was attentive about our concerns and kept us in the loop throughout the process. As we are from out of town, he even went as far as going to the department of motor vehicles for us, and dropping off a few items at a consignment store, after the sale! Talk about one-stop shopping, he cleaned everything afterward, had a charity coordinated for pickup of unsold items, and even had pantry items designated for veterans. I can't think of one area that could be improved upon. From the day we hired him, until he sent the final packet to us, he delivered 100 percent. I would not hesitate to use him again and I recommend him without reservation. As someone who doesn't typically give reviews, he has earned the highest praise from us. Well done, Chris!Doria SklarMarch 2023

Going through the process with Chris was nothing short of amazing. He and his team were thoughtful and thorough, organized, knowledgeable, and professional. Thank you for helping us do what seemed to have been impossible.

Chris and the Destin Estate Sales team were incredibly helpful with the entire process of sorting, staging and selling the contents of our parents home and preparing the house for showing and sale afterwards. The amount of stress this removed from us is priceless!
Great terms as well. I highly recommend them if you need help settling an estate.
Thank you SO much Destin Estate Sales!Brad Bredenkamp May 2023
