Insurance details01 / HOW WE HELP
Different situations.
The same care.
Whether you’re settling an estate, simplifying your home, or helping someone you love move forward, we start by understanding what you need.
Downsizing or moving
Keep what belongs in your next chapter. Let us help you plan a sale for the furniture, collections, and household items you’re ready to release.
Helping from a distance
You may live out of town or be managing this alongside work and family. Start with a call so we can discuss access, timing, and coordination.
Before you throw anything away,
let’s take a look.
Everyday objects, tools, and collections may be worth including. Set aside what you want to keep, then let us evaluate the rest.
02 / A CLEAR PROCESS
Less guesswork.
More guidance.
We’ll walk you through the scope before you commit. The plan should fit your home, your contents, and your timeline.
We listen & evaluate
Tell us about the property and your goals. An onsite evaluation helps us assess the contents, access, and sale potential.
We agree on a plan
Review the recommended approach, services, fees, timing, and what happens after the sale before moving forward.
We prepare & sell
For an agreed estate sale, our team organizes, stages, prices, and markets the contents, then manages the sale.
We plan what’s next
Discuss remaining items, donation, and removal options. Any additional cleanout services and costs should be agreed in advance.
You’ll know what happens next—and what’s expected of you.

03 / MEET TREMÉ
It’s more than
what’s in the house.
A move, a loss, a new season of life. Behind every estate sale is a person making decisions that matter.
Tremé takes its name from the New Orleans neighborhood connected to our founder’s family roots. That sense of connection shapes how we approach our work with North Texas homeowners and families.
We believe the first step should be simple: listen to your situation, explain the options, and help you decide what makes sense.
Have a conversation with usFROM THE FAMILIES WE HELP
Their home.
Their words.
What matters to sellers goes beyond the sale. These families describe the communication, consideration, and care they experienced with Tremé.
★★★★★
Communication you can count on
“They communicated well, and followed through with every commitment on time. … He was caring and considerate to the members of our family, and demonstrated a clear understanding that this process can be difficult.”
Dodd RobertsEstate sale client · Google review excerpt
★★★★★
Respect for the things that matter
“They sought the value and listened to the sentimental value with patience and love. … The money is secondary to the respect and care of our home and mother. I do not know how it could have been better.”

Good questions.
Clear answers.
You don’t need to know how estate sales work to get started. Here are the questions owners ask first.
Ask us a questionHow do I know if an estate sale is right for me?
The amount, condition, and sale potential of the contents all matter, along with access to the home and your timeline. An evaluation helps us recommend whether an onsite sale is a practical fit. You don’t need to make that decision before contacting us.
Is the initial consultation free?
Yes. Start with a free, no-pressure conversation. Request an onsite evaluation and we’ll contact you to discuss the property and coordinate the next step. Sending a request does not confirm an appointment.
What does an estate sale cost?
Fees depend on the contents, preparation, staffing, and services involved. Ask for a written explanation of the commission, any minimums or upfront charges, and any additional services before signing. We’ll discuss the proposed terms with you rather than guess from a few photos.
Should I clean, sort, or throw things away first?
Start by setting aside personal documents, medications, photographs, valuables you’re keeping, and items that are not for sale. Avoid discarding saleable belongings before the evaluation. We can discuss how much preparation is needed after seeing the home.
What kinds of items can be included?
Furniture, antiques, collectibles, artwork, jewelry, tools, kitchenware, and everyday household belongings may be suitable. Condition and demand vary. Tell us about special collections or anything that needs expert attention when you request an evaluation.
How far in advance should I contact you?
Reach out as soon as you know you may need help. Share any move-out, closing, or access deadline. Scheduling depends on the amount of preparation and team availability; we’ll discuss what is realistic for your situation.
Can you help if I live out of town?
Start with a phone conversation. We can discuss who has authority to approve the sale, how access to the home will work, and how you’d like to receive updates. Onsite coordination depends on the property and the agreed scope.
What happens to items that don’t sell?
Discuss your preferences before the sale. Options may include keeping items, donations, or separately arranged removal and cleanout. Availability and charges depend on the remaining contents. Removal is not automatically included in every sale.
Can I keep some items or set a minimum price?
Identify the belongings you want to keep before preparation begins. Tell us about any price expectations or restrictions during planning so we can discuss them before the sale agreement is finalized.
Do you handle the sale of the house too?
The estate sale focuses on personal property inside the home. If you also need help with the real estate, mention it during the consultation so we can discuss that separately. Requesting an estate sale evaluation does not create a real estate listing agreement.
Are you insured?
Yes. Tremé Realty LLC DBA Tremé Estate Sales carries commercial general liability insurance through Hiscox. The current policy period is September 29, 2026–September 29, 2027, with a $1 million per-occurrence limit and $2 million general aggregate. Coverage is subject to the policy’s terms, conditions, and exclusions. Contact us to request insurance documentation for your sale.
