AbraxasAppraisals & Liquidation

How We Help

Our Services

Four ways we support Ottawa families through estate transitions — always respectful, always thorough.

Estate Sales

Our signature service. We transform a home’s contents into a beautifully organized, professionally hosted on-site sale. From staging and pricing to advertising and sale-day management, we handle every detail while the family focuses on what matters.

  • Full staging & item pricing
  • Advertising to our buyer network
  • Sale-day hosting & security
  • Cash and e-transfer handling

Appraisals

Wondering what grandmother’s china or that attic painting is really worth? We provide honest, experienced appraisals of antiques, collectibles, jewelry, art and complete household contents — for estate planning, insurance or peace of mind.

  • Antiques & collectibles
  • Jewelry & fine art
  • Full household contents
  • Written valuations available

Liquidation

When a full estate sale isn’t the right fit, we offer complete liquidation services — clearing a property efficiently and respectfully, finding the right channels for every item, and leaving the home ready for its next chapter.

  • Complete property clear-outs
  • Donation & recycling coordination
  • Transparent accounting
  • Flexible timelines

Downsizing Assistance

Moving to a smaller home is emotional work. We help families sort belongings with patience — deciding what to keep, what to sell and what to pass on — then manage the sale of the rest so nothing of value is left behind.

  • Room-by-room sorting support
  • Keep / sell / donate guidance
  • Coordination with movers
  • Sale of remaining contents

Not sure where to start?

Every estate is different. A short conversation is all it takes to understand your situation and recommend the right path — whether that’s a full estate sale, a private appraisal or a complete liquidation. There’s never any pressure or obligation.
