We needed to have an Estate Sale quickly because of the sale of our home. We are very pleased with the service Rufus and his team provided. Everyone was professional and courteous. They protected our home very well and cleaned up at the conclusion of the sale. Rufus provided us with updates throughout the day of the sale. He coordinated a donation pickup for the unsold items. I highly recommend My Personal Estate Sales LLC.

From start to finish, Rufus and his team were wonderful to work with! He and Jennie were so friendly, helpful and conscientious. And - his entire team had the same positive attitude every day they were at our home as they set up for the sale, worked the sale and cleaned up after. They covered every floor surface in our home - even some walls and railings so they wouldn't be damaged as large items were moved out. They even vacuumed after the very few final remnants that didn't sell (and were donated) were out of our home. They priced things well so nearly EVERYTHING was sold! Rufus was very quick to send us our profits and checked in to make sure everything was OK during the entire process. We would HIGHLY recommend My Personal Estate Sale - and Rufus & Jennie!Heidel TuvesonApril 2024

What an amazing experience with this company! I didn't have an 'estate' but wanted to sell all my belongings before moving out of the area. Rufus and had I communicated several times, and today he came to my home. Since we'd communicated already, he said he was just here to give me tools and resources because I could sell my things myself and wouldn't have to pay anyone commission. Since I don't have that much and do have the time, he was right. And WOW did he give me tools and resources!! Keep this in mind: Rufus took the time to come to my home and meet for an hour, all the time knowing he was just helping me and wouldn't make a single dollar for his time. Now, THAT'S integrity and customer service!!!Cathy HardingJanuary 2024

I cannot say enough good things about Rufus and his team.
My husband and I were buying the home where he was having an estate sale. We went, hoping to pick up some of the beautiful items in the home.

I sent Rufus a text telling him we ended up with some of the paperwork he would need for items that were to be sold in the home. He responded quickly and made sure I had the information regarding the sale so I could see items online before the event.

The first thing I noticed in the pictures provided was that plastic was put down to cover the floors. As the new homeowner, I was pleased to see this precaution as I knew many people would be wandering through the home.

When I got to the sale, I was BLOWN AWAY at the detail taken to assure every surface possible was covered in heavy butcher paper to prevent any damage, even the stairwell and handrails.

The prices were fair, and I was able to buy several items. The crew was great and pulling the items I was buying and putting them back in a closed off room, so I didn't have to move them out of the house only to then move them back in later.

The staff was amazing! Although they were being pulled in all different direction and many were trying to get them to help them all at once, they were always polite and friendly. The thing that stood out to me was how each person that entered the sale was greeted, given the staff members name AND asked for their name. Each person was given a friendly, warm welcome.

I ended up spending most of the day there and was able to chat with Rufus. He shared his business model with me, and I found him to be very detailed and thorough.

When we did our final walk through before closing, just a day later, I found the house left perfectly clean. You would have never known an army of people were romping through the entire home.Carla ValetApril 2023

I just wanted to put into words what an incredible experience I had working with Rufus E. Johnson, Jr. and his team. I was given a list of Estate Sale Companies from my real estate company and was so glad I was able to work with Rufus, who did an estate sale at my home so I could downsize from my four-bedroom house to a two-bedroom apartment.

Rufus initially met with me at my home, and I was so impressed with his presentation of how his team would handle the sale of my belongings. First of all, I was so happy that his philosophy was not to stretch out a sale over the course of 3 days, as so many estate sale companies do. He has done the research and his strategy works. His team comes to your house on Tuesday and work the next 3 days staging and pricing the items that will be available for purchase in a one-day sale the following Saturday. Rufus takes pictures of the "Hook" items or what he calls the "Big Rock" items and posts them on the internet with descriptions and prices. He shared with me charts and spreadsheets that back up his successful approach. Nothing is left to chance.

His team of workers are so professional and nice. They take extra care putting floor protectors down and making sure that your home is properly cared for throughout the entire process.

The sale they performed on Saturday was a huge success, as they sold just about everything. Only a few boxes of odds and ends remained. I made much more money than anticipated!!

Rufus insured that my estate sale would be low stress, enjoyable, and successful. I have nothing but kudos for Rufus, his wife Jennie, and their amazing team!

Thanks for making what could have been a very nerve-racking experience, a walk down "Easy Street!"David EshelmanMarch 2023

I think this might be the first review I have ever taken the time to do but believe it was warranted. From start to finish, Rufus and his crew were amazing. I was dealing with an unusually difficult situation and Rufus did everything possible to minimize my anxiety. Totally organized items prior to sale, generated an impressive number of sales and cleaned up everything after. House was ready for new buyer, and I didn’t have to do any additional clean up after sale. Can’t say enough good things.

Rufus Johnson and his team did a remarkable job with helping us reach our goal with my mother's estate. The goal? Sell all the stuff and at age 97, mom had soooo much stuff. I researched My Personal Estate Sale online prior to contacting Rufus. Once I listened to his presentation, I knew this was the company with a plan that would successfully reach my goal. Their philosophy is different from most estate sale companies as they run a one day sale with items priced to sell from the get go, not playing the retail game of one price on day one and lowering the price in subsequent days. The team worked efficiently through set up and sale, remaining items were donated, 'junk' removed, and the house swept out prior to the team leaving. All of this, and the estate reaped twice the dollars than a company who buys everything offered to us. I highly recommend this company for your estate liquidation needs.Diana LMarch 2022

Rufus and his team did a great job of organizing for my estate sale! My neighbor was moving and had another estate sale company. This company he used brought their own merchandise in each day. The purpose of this sale is to sell your stuff, so you don’t have to move it! So, the company was competing with your merchandise. The other thing was stuff was so high it was not selling! Rufus has a one-day sale merchandise is priced fairly and is a good bargain! I was very happy how well my sale did!John KomenJuly 2021

If you need an estate sale service do yourself a favor and use My Personal Estate Sale. From start to finish every detail was handled professionally and with integrity. Everything you read on their website is 100% accurate and the other reviews are spot on. This company operates with the highest degree of integrity and professionalism. Jennie knows her stuff business wise and is truly a warm and caring person. I can’t say enough good things about them. Just use them! You will not be disappointed.Diane DeGrootFebruary 2020

My Personal Estate Sale was a blessing to me. I would recommend them! They made a difficult situation so much easier! Jennie was so kind and walked me through exactly what the process would be. She was so kind and respectful of the items and of the property. And they sold just about everything, marketed it perfectly. I just can not say enough about how great Jennie was! I could not have done this without them!2005champ198December 2019

This is the best estate sale company in the Kansas City area. My Personal Estate Sale LLC offers rock-bottom pricing starting on Day 1 of each sale, which is the exact opposite pricing strategy compared to their competitors. The difference is night and day.

You can get some amazing deals and it makes for a very fun estate sale experience. Just make sure to arrive bright and early on Day 1 of the sale, as most of good stuff is gone in the first few hours. Be aware that the first hour will be extremely busy and crowded. This company is truly a liquidator, as by the end of Day 2 (the final day of the sale), they typically have sold 90% or more of the items in the house.

Beyond the pricing model, this company is extremely well-managed. The sales are tidy, organized, and thorough. I rarely find an item that has not been marked. The staff is very friendly and will even help carry items outside. They usually have several employees working checkout lines and they do accept debit and credit. The owners of the company, Rufus and Jenny, are two of the nicest people you will ever meet. They take the time to try to get to know their customers on a first-name basis. Unfortunately, this type of attitude is a rarity among estate sale companies. I really can't recommend this company enough.Zach BeckerFebruary 2018

I am an obsessed and totally faithful to my personal estate sale. I don't bother going to any other estate sales any longer. Jenny and Ruffus are up and coming to put all these other companies to shame. Everything they price is very reasonable. I like that if you follow them on Facebook you can look at pictures of every item in the sale. My fiance and I have a storage unit full of beautiful furniture for our retirement home we are building. I don't know why anyone would pay full price when you can get here or almost New stuff at thier sales. Can't wait to see what is next weekend. LOVE YOU!!!Kathy KornmesserFebruary 2018

Ethics is the cornerstone of My Personal Estate Sale's business model, which is lacking with most other estate sale companies in the greater Kansas City area. They do an exceptional job of striking balance between delivering on the promised level of service and return for their clients and the expectations of the customers who attend the sales.

There are few estate sale companies that I would trust or recommend to execute a sale in the best interest of friends or family and give detailed reporting of the sales revenue. Many other companies operate with complicated multi-tier pricing models only to have the remaining inventory go to them once the sale closes.

MPES sets the bar high in the Kansas City market.Jeremiah BushMarch 2017

I can't say enough how thankful my family is for your company! After my mom passed, we tried ourselves to work on clearing out my mom's house. It was just too great a task for us. We were having a rough time just dealing with the loss of my mom. Your company was suggested to us, and from the moment Jenny came in the door she took great care in making sure our needs were met. The staff worked so hard in preparing my mom's home for the sale and practically everything was sold the first day. We could never have done this ourselves. Again, we are very thankful and highly recommend your service to others!Michelle BrenizerMarch 2017

I have been a consistent customer (over the past year, or so) of My Personal Estate Sale LLC, and have always been very impressed with their Professionalism, Services, Quality Products for Sale, Pricing, etc... I have been to many other companies that have Estate Sales, but this is by far my favorite company to purchase from. I have NEVER, and I repeat NEVER, had a bad experience with them, ONLY GOOD EXPERIENCES.Demetrius WrightJanuary 2017

I cannot say enough good things about this company, their owners and employees. They did a downsizing sale for us and were professional, respectful, trustworthy and hardworking. They delivered on every promise. Their marketing resulted in a huge turnout and almost everything was sold. They also left our house nice and tidy.Andrea ChambersAugust 2016

Rufus and Jennie and their staff were amazing! I wish all Estate companies had the work ethic and integrity that Rufus and Jennie have. They went far beyond the "call" of duty to ensure that I was comfortable and that I sold as much stuff as possible. They took care of everything from beginning to end which gave me complete piece of mind. They made the process worry free and my house was left in impeccable shape. I trust them completely and would use My Personal Estate Sale again in a heart beat!Kathleen NevilleAugust 2016

My Personal Estate Sale is a wonderful company. I have enjoyed going to them for over a year now. They are a professional, pleasant, and fun! Items are fairly priced. Nicely displayed. Its nice to be able to purchase something for the right price the first day. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing an estate or a moving or down sizing sale. You wont be disappointed as a client or as a customer with this company.Kelly MaagAugust 2016

My wife and I have been going to My Personal Estate Sales for almost a year and through that time we have seen an amazing operation from the inside out. The owners Rufus and Jennie are fantastic..the staff always professional and overall our favorite estate sales to go too. If I could give more that 5 stars I would!! 💪💪Micah LacerteMarch 2017

One of the most professional estate sale companies in Kansas City and my personal favorite. Great prices, great customer service, every time!Lee BrockhouseMarch 2017

Love these guys! My wife and I have been attending their sales for well over a year and we're hooked....they're always well organized, professionally managed, fairly priced and fun to attend. Keep up the great work!John JamesFebruary 2017

I have been to many estate sales and I have to say My Personal Estate Sale is by far my favorite. I always try to attend their sale because they don't play the pricing game other companies do. They price it right the first day. I have found a few treasures at their sales. They are very organized and very friendly. It is nice to hear a sincere thank you from them even if you don't buy anything. If you have a chance to attend one of their sales I highly recommend, just wait until I have been so you don't buy the treasure I went for :) Erin H.February 2017

I was really happy with the way my father's estate sale was handled. My family and I were glad unsold items got donated to the different charities and items were priced to sell. I've been to other estate sales and I saw a big difference in the way stuff was handled.An anonymous family memberJuly 2017

My Personal Estate LLCC handled my mother's estate sale after her recent death. We had a good experience with Jennie and Rufus. My brother and I are both full time working professionals and My Estate Sales made it very easy for us. After we removed the items that were sentimental and valuable to us My Personal Estate came in and did everything from start to finish. They went through all of the items in the 3 story house, prepared them for showing, priced them, staged them and documented what was sold and for how much. They cleaned the house both before and after the sale. The unused / unsold items were donated to charity and this was all taken care of by My Personal Estate. All of the trash was removed from the house and taken away in a dumpster. Jennie & Rufus even handled the sale of my mom' car as my brother and I did not have time to do this. i would recommend them to you for your personal estate sale.Louis MonacoAugust 2017

Jennie & Rufus: Everything looks beautiful!
Thank you so much for your professionalism
and following through on everything you
said you would do. You definitely earned
your money and took a lot of stress off of us😃
Best wishes for continued success with
Your business! Karen

I really like this estate sale company. I first attended a sale and realized it was the last day. Almost everything had been sold. I was disappointed until a lovely young woman handed me a bag and said it was "bagtastic" day. Anything I could put in the bag was a single price for the whole bag. They had consolidated what was left into a large room. There I found a tuxedo in my husband's size, an Italian suit, a sport coat, and several silk blouses and dresses for my daughter.

Since then I've been hooked. I follow several Estate sale companies and this company is one of the best in the KC area. Polite staff, pricing is fair (not inflated) when you arrive, and the houses are neat and staged well. Definitely recommend them to other estate sale addicts like me. Get on their mailing list and you'll see the photos of what is offered days before the sale starts. Happy shopping! Chris T.December 2017

My Personal Estate Sale--Rufus and Jennie run perhaps the finest estate sale company in the area. They epitomize the word professional by adhering to a set of standards that sets them apart form the majority of their competitors. This team recognizes the balance between earning the most for their clients and "getting it sold." As book buyers we find their pricing quite competitive and make every effort to attend all of their sales.Rusty & Lawana WooldridgeDecember 2017

Great prices and excellent customer service. The owner and staff are very pleasant, professional and friendly. I just love attending their sales.Delaney JohnsonNovember 2017
