Introduction

Norm is an estate lawyer who also acts as an Estate Trustee for clients. His practice extends throughout Southern Ontario.

Challenge

Norm fulfills the role of Estate Trustee for estates from London to Ottawa. He typically requires the following:

The house to be secured
Locks changed
Bi-weekly insurance check
Assets inventoried
Certified appraisals of the house and contents along with distribution to families
Household clearing
Donations to charity
Sale of the property and contents, once probate is in hand.

Norm’s challenge is being able to accomplish the above as efficiently as possible, which would mean having one company manage everything. This would be impossible through a regular real estate agent. Few agents, appraisers, or other service providers belong to multiple real estate boards or work in different cities, making it difficult for them to deliver all the pieces.

“I was dreading the move and I still can’t believe how well it went. Everybody involved was so kind, helpful and patient that I never felt worried. When it came to selling my house, Sherry was so patient, explaining everything and not pushing me to make a decision.”

Angela, Executor
