When my brother passed, the responsibility of dealing with his estate fell to me, and I truly…read moredidn't know where to start. It was overwhelming, to say the least. Then Lisa came along, and I can honestly say she was an answer to my prayers. She was kind, calm, and so easy to talk to, it felt like talking to someone who genuinely cared, not just someone there to do a job. Lisa helped us sort through everything with such care and clarity. She's incredibly organized and really knows her stuff, antiques, collectibles, you name it, she had the information. She explained what items were worth, helped us decide what should stay in the family, and gave us honest, practical advice for the rest. What I appreciated most was how she found ways to save us money and avoid unnecessary stress. She even helped us come up with a plan to sell the remaining items, which feels much more manageable for our family. She never pushed or rushed us, just steady, respectful, and knowledgeable. I don't know how we would've gotten through it without her. If you're dealing with an estate or feeling lost in the process, Lisa is skilled, trustworthy, and has a very big heart. I felt supported the entire way and we are forever grateful for her services. I wholeheartedly recommend Lisa. Margaret N.

I found Lisa of Lisa Rae Appraisals to be Trustworthy, Conscientious, Involved, Decisive,…read moreKnowledgeable, Resourceful, Caring, Kind, Open and Honest, a Networker, a Mover and a Shaker when needed! She is an Estate Services Specialist and Guide, an Estate Liquidator, and Personal Property Appraiser. I tasked Lisa with a 30-day window to accomplish an overwhelming estate clear out which involved getting a garage, yard, shed and packed 2-story house emptied before snowfall so that we could list the house for sale. Not only did she do it, she completed it on her own. She made extraordinary use of her network of resources to deal with transporting items for auction and donation. This powerhouse woman is not an organizer or a declutter specialist but she does apply those skills at the same time as she gets the job done. She is efficient and she is effective. I have never known anyone to accomplish this much in the way she did and in the time she did. I've referred to Lisa as a machine because the pace she worked, the way she worked, the decisions she made, the diligence she applied, the zigging and zagging she accommodated when faced with scheduling or priority changes was nothing short of phenomenal. Not once did she complain. Not once did she quit. Not once did she fail in her promises. Lisa is a unique mix of passion, personal experience, practical knowledge, previous on-the-job training, standards of operating and ethics. She is compassionate, considerate, conscientious of both your loved ones' stories and legacies, and she balances that with the family members' values and beliefs. Lisa is also conscious of environmental effects to avoid landfill wherever possible. She is socially conscious in helping others in society who need a hand. She is resourceful. She is well-networked which is a talent all its own. I have zero hesitation introducing or referring Lisa of Lisa Rae Appraisals to anyone. Save yourself the time, effort and cost doing it yourself. Bring her in at the beginning. Lisa can provide you with guidance and direction for the who, what, where, when and how BEFORE you start eliminating anything other than obvious trash. You do better when you know better and if I could do it over again, I would have brought Lisa's expertise in from the start. Lisa knows the tools, the techniques, the players in the estate services and liquidation services industry. She understands the behind the scenes, the reputations of the various companies and people and the systems. She works for you; not for any single alliance. She knows which connection or contact is best for your situation based on your needs. She understands what sells and what won't. She knows how to combine items to make them easier to sell. Lisa is a rare find because of her background, her history and her training. You will be hard pressed to find anyone with her mix of skills. She doesn't just 'know'; she 'does'. Working with Lisa allowed us to manage the estate with care, compassion, awareness, respect and kindness while we grieve. We did more than anyone could, should, expect of us and what we expected of ourselves but Lisa brought it all to conclusion and allowed us to finally process our grief 9 months after our loss. We met Lisa in late stages of clearing the estate after experiencing a family death and an additional family member's aging considerations but if you are ready to make progress before your end of life, contact her now. Meet with Lisa of Lisa Rae Appraisals at the beginning of your journey. Even if you never hire her ongoing services, Lisa will give you insight on how the process can be resolved from the outset. You may find (as our family did) that she was the right answer all along. Brenda C

She was a great help in being on call for my elderly fathers move from one level of care to another. She took the time to connect with him and tried to make him feel comfortable.

Thank you so much Karen and your great team for assisting my move from an old house we'd lived in…read morefor 45 years. The downsizing was formidable as I had accumulated way too many things. As I was going into a condo, I had to get most of my large antiques gone and she got me though the pain of seeing them go out the door with all her warmth and compassion. At the other end of the actual move, in which nothing was broken or missing, they unpacked right down to setting up my bed. It was a very traumatic time in that my husband passed away in the middle of all the chaos, but Karen was there to help me with whatever I needed. I really don't know what I would have done without their able and willing assistance. I highly recommend this company for your move coordination - they do everything, and do it in such an exemplary manner! Joan Swain Edmonton, AB.

Sharon Gregresh is a RE/MAX real estate agent and has her own brokerage: Property Fusion…read more I was referred to Sharon when I was looking to buy a home as her area of expertise is Edmonton and St. Albert and we were looking in NW Edmonton. Sharon has many years of experience selling homes and we felt comfortable taking her advise. After all, buying a home is a huge investment. After a few weeks of looking, and Sharon doing our footwork, we found our home! I'm very thankful I chose a real estate agent because we ran into a few snags with the contract and negotiations and only an agent would be able to explain what was happening and how to handle it. Great job Sharon.
