About Us

We are a family-owned business that ensures your complete satisfaction through a simple, yet powerful, promise. We’ll work alongside you to discuss everything you need, and then we’ll create a plan that tells you exactly what we’re going to do, when and how we’re going to do it, and then we will deliver on this plan.

Our integrated approach combines all the elements of your transition. Instead of working with a real estate agent, movers, auction houses and estate agents all separately and at different costs/percentages - you can work with Gordon's as your sole service provider for a lower net cost, and for way less headache. We don't just say we do it - we actually do!

 

Whatever your needs are, our team prides itself on our experience and compassion in advising you and executing every step to whatever degree you wish.

Everything in One Place
Unlike traditional real estate agents, we:
Sell your home for maximum value in a predictable timeframe

Sort, pack, and move your belongings

Appraise contents and real estate for probate or distribution

Manage the entire project, so nothing is overlooked

Provide interim funding so you don’t pay out of pocket before the sale closes

Our Ottawa Services

At Gordon’s, we specialize in serving the unique needs of people who are going through major life transitions such as: finding a retirement community or property, downsizing to smaller accommodations, selling or buying a property, settling an estate, and more, in Ottawa,

We guide you through every step—planning, sorting, packing, moving, and preparing your home for sale—so your downsize is efficient, cost-effective, and worry-free.

For estate trustees, we handle both the real estate sale and personal property management, ensuring maximum returns to the estate and minimal stress for you.

Our certified appraisal services ensure you meet probate requirements quickly and accurately

If probate is required, filing is one of the first steps an executor of an estate needs to make. We can help ensure it’s done efficiently.

If you live in a rental property, we take care of everything you and/or your loved ones need to plan and execute your custom downsizing process.

Instead of hiring multiple providers—real estate agents, movers, auction houses, cleaners, and more—you can rely on Gordon’s as your single point of contact. This lowers your total costs, eliminates duplication, and ensures every detail is handled.

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.
