You’ve built a life here. We’ll help you carry it forward.
Whether you’re downsizing, settling an estate, or preparing a longtime family home for sale — Heartscrabble is the first call you make. We handle everything that comes before the sale, so you don’t have to figure it out alone.
WHO WE’RE HERE FOR
Every homeowner’s situation is different. What they share is the weight of it.
You’re preparing to downsize.
The home has been yours for decades. It holds more than furniture — it holds a life. You know it’s time, but knowing where to start is another matter entirely. We start it for you.
You’re managing a parent’s estate.
You’re navigating grief and logistics at the same time, often from a distance, often without a clear picture of what’s in the home or what to do with it. We bring the clarity and the helping hands.
You’re moving forward after loss.
The family home carries memories that make every decision harder. We understand that. We move at your pace, with care for every item and respect for every moment..
Wherever you are in this process — Heartscrabble meets you there.
WHAT WE HANDLE
Everything before the sale — and everything that makes it possible.
De-clutter and Downsize
We help you sort through a lifetime of belongings with patience and without judgment. What comes with you, what goes to family, what gets sold, what gets donated — we guide every decision and handle every step.
Estate Sorting and Consignment
Cherished items deserve more than a dumpster. We document, photograph, and connect meaningful belongings with buyers who will value them — through our integrated consignment network. Nothing is lost. Nothing is wasted.
Cleaning and Repairs
Once the home is cleared, we bring in the right people to get it into selling condition. From deep cleaning to minor repairs and touch-ups, we coordinate everything so you don’t have to manage a roster of contractors.
Vendor Coordination
We maintain relationships with trusted local vendors — cleaners, painters, handymen, movers — and we manage them on your behalf. One point of contact. No chasing trades.
Professional Staging
When the home is ready, we stage it to perform. Heartscrabble staging is designed to attract buyers, justify the asking price, and close faster. We know what works because we’ve done the preparation work ourselves.
Agent Referral
When the time is right, we connect you with a real estate agent who fits your situation — someone who understands a well-prepared home and knows how to close it. You don’t have to find the right agent. We know them.
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
“I didn’t know where to begin. My mother had lived in that house for 40 years and I live three states away. Heartscrabble handled everything — the sorting, the estate sale, the staging. By the time I flew in for closing, the house looked better than it had in years. I don’t know what I would have done without them.” — D.M., Adult daughter, estate transition
“After my husband passed I knew I needed to sell but the whole thing felt impossible. Heartscrabble came in and just took over — in the best way. They were kind, they were patient, and they treated everything in our home like it mattered. It did matter. They knew that.” — R.T., Widow, downsizing from family home
“We’d been putting off dealing with the house for two years. Heartscrabble made the whole process feel manageable. The staging alone was worth it — we got three offers in the first week.” — J. & K.L., Homeowners, pre-sale preparation
THE HEARTSCRABBLE DIFFERENCE
Most companies do one piece of this. A staging company stages. A downsizing company downsizes. An estate sale company runs a sale. You’re left coordinating between all of them — at the worst possible time.
Heartscrabble does all of it. One company, one relationship, one point of contact from the first conversation to the day your home sells. We built this because nobody else had — and because the people who need it most deserve better than having to manage a process themselves during one of the hardest chapters of their lives.
Every piece in its place. Every step handled. Every transition, a little lighter.
No pressure. No commitment. Just a conversation about your home and what comes next.
