Brookstone Vendor Network

Settling an estate can feel overwhelming, especially when the home itself needs attention. There may be years of personal belongings to sort through, an overgrown yard, carpets that need cleaning, or simply a home that has not been maintained the way it normally would. For many Personal Representatives, knowing where to begin can be just as difficult as knowing what needs to be done. You do not need to have the home cleaned up, repaired, or market ready before reaching out to a real estate professional. 

The purpose of the Brookstone Vendor Network™ is to give Personal Representatives a starting point when they need help getting the property under control. We have compiled a selection of local companies that may be helpful with some of the most common needs that arise during the early stages of settling an estate. 

Start With What the Property Needs 

Every estate is different. Some homes may require only a lawn service and a little cleaning. Others may need a complete clean-out before the family can even begin thinking about selling. There is no one-size-fits-all checklist, and not every property needs every service. 

The vendors in this guide are organized around the practical needs that may arise while preparing an estate property. 

A Resource, Not a Requirement 

The companies included in this guide are provided as resources to help you get started. You are never required to use any of these vendors, and you should choose the professionals that best fit your property's needs and your family's circumstances. 

Most importantly, don't let the condition of the home keep you from asking questions or getting started. 

At Brookstone Realtors Probate Division, our role extends beyond selling real estate. 

We believe education is one of the most valuable resources we can provide. Our goal is to help Personal Representatives understand the process, protect estate assets, and move forward with confidence.
