The Mowery Group was hired in November 2025 to appraise rural RR1 property with 4.57 acres that my…read morelate brother had owned. It was a complicated property, and we wanted a thorough evaluation and estimate of its value at the time of my brother's passing. Don Mowery spent 90 or more minutes on the property where he measured, walked, photographed and evaluated the premises. He was on time, completely professional and easy to speak with. Although comparisons were difficult, which we knew ahead of time, he found 7 properties that had changed hands in recent years and that had similarities with the property at hand. For each comp, he provided a lot of data and also photographs. For my late brother's land, he provided a ton of information plus satellite and other views of the property I had not found on public sources. Don completed his review by mid-December, meeting all our expectations and more.

HONEST w/INTEGRITY - need I say more?!!?…read more A few months ago, I was referred to May at Elite to appraise a gemstone, and I was honestly blown away. May was incredibly kind, patient, enjoyable, and genuinely helpful from start to finish. By the end of the experience, I was truly dumbfounded; and that takes a lot, given my very high standards for customer service. Her professionalism, transparency, and integrity were exceptional. She took the time to answer every single question thoroughly and never once made us feel rushed or pressured. In a world full of shysters and scammers, Elite stands out as truly old-school straightforward and principled - the kind of trust you rarely see anymore. If you're looking for expertise you can actually trust, Elite is the real deal. Highly, highly recommend.

Even though they were still on their online portal to be sold. Out of 100 plus items they sent us a check for $300. These included Indian blankets, Victorian opera glasses, jewelry, furniture, and antique collectibles from all over the world as my grandparents were world travelers. it never sat right with me that they could not give me an itemized list of what was sold and what it was sold for. So I thought I should share my experience. The staff also seemed hectic, unhappy, and always referred me to the owner, even though he was only interested in our coins. I would go somewhere else.

I needed an appraisal done quickly and I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to pick up the phone and actually get a hold of someone who took care of our appraisal request even sooner than promised! I love companies that have good communication and that under promise and over deliver! It impressed my realtor, pleased our clients and allowed us to remove the appraisal contingency without the need for negotiations with the seller. The appraisal report was well written with clear photos and was very thorough. Thank you T. Hann & Associates! I look forward to doing business with you again! JudyAnne S.

As the successor trustee to my dad's estate, and living out of town, I needed someone to help sell…read moreand clear his home prior to sale. There are a lot of things in life you only do once or twice, and the first time doing it can be a huge learning process because, well....it's your first time. A wedding, raising a child, buying your first home, picking your pokemon go team, etc. Well, going through your dad's home and preparing it for close of escrow is one of those things. THANK GOODNESS there are companies like Grasons Estate Sales. Initially, I reached out to my realtor to get their advice on what to do. They said they could help me find someone to just literally dump everything in my dad's house. It would have costed me $3500 to do so. But I thought that would be such a waste, as I wanted to sell or donate as much of the items as possible. That's where Grasons Estate Sales came in. Initial consult, they came through and looked through the home, explained their process, and gave their initial impressions. They come in a couple days ahead to prep the home...put up some tables to line up your items and stuff. Then, they run the estate sale in your home for a couple of days over the weekend and take a % of the sales. Then, they (optionally) can dump everything you don't want. Or, you can arrange something yourself. You just pay them for their time/labor. Essentially, you are using the proceeds from the sales to help offset the cost of clearing out the home. Turns out, I came out slightly ahead after everything was said and done! Imagine having to try to sell items by yourself. You know how flaky those Facebook marketplace people can be. It would take literally weeks/months to sell items yourself in the time Grasons Estate Sales took. So much time and headache averted! I'm totally satisfied with the job Grasons Estate Sales performed. As I mentioned earlier, I was out of town, so by the time the estate sale happened, I was already gone. So, we communicated via text for everything, and their PM, Sunshine, was on top of things to send me progress photos and receipts of the sold items. Oh, and they were honest enough to even tell me they found $7 in one of my dad's drawers, and returned that to me! Really chill and honest company. Couldn't recommended enough!
