About Us
What Makes Complete Estate Management- Estate Sales Different
Complete Estate Management is not your typical estate sale company — and that is by design. Before entering the estate sale industry, we were owners and operators of an antique business where presentation, storytelling, and value mattered just as much as the item itself. We bring that same mindset into every estate sale we manage, including family estate sales in Bakersfield today. Rather than simply placing items on tables, we thoughtfully stage each home so clients and shoppers can truly envision how pieces will look and function in their own spaces. Our goal is to create a warm, inviting shopping experience that feels curated, organized, and intentional — not overwhelming. We pride ourselves on: • Professional staging that elevates the sale • Fair, research-based pricing • Strong knowledge of vintage, antiques, and collectibles • High-quality photography • Strategic social media marketing and advertising. This approach consistently results in better traffic, stronger sales, and a smoother experience for our clients. Most importantly, we treat every home and every collection with respect, care, and attention to detail. At Complete Estate Management, we don’t just sell items — we showcase them.

The Consultation is a guided process designed to help you navigate through this life event as stress free as possible. We will discuss your goals, answer your questions, and explain the steps of the estate sale process. Wether you are settling the estate of a loved one, relocating, or simply downsizing, we'll create a customized plan that fits your unique situation.
We'll review our shared timeline, discuss our services and commission structure, identify any items that may require special attention, and provide recommendations based on years of experience. Our goal is to make the process
