Gordon's Downsizing & Estate Services Ltd.

After my father passed away, my mom was left alone in a big house with a lot of maintenance, stairs and other challenges. She did not want to spend her remaining years worrying about upkeep. She moved to a lovely retirement community, but packing up a lifetime of memories was overwhelming. Having used Gordon's to clear out my late SIL house, we knew precisely who to call! Gordon's handled everything - they helped her pick out the pieces she needed in her new place by doing a floor plan, they packed up the house and moved her, then unpacked when she got there. They even hung pics and curtains for her. Everyone - Barry, Cathy, Sue and the packing team and moving crew were so wonderful and responsive to her needs. They arranged the auction and took care of all disposals. Then Sherry came in and sold the house for over asking! It has truly been a life changing experience for mom, and she is so happy she trusted Gordon's to help her through it. And we are so grateful too that moms experience was problem free, and a smooth transition from one stage of life to another. A big thank you from all the family to Gordon's for their services!

I would most definitely use Gordon’s again. It was an extremely smooth process with not a single issue. They looked after everything and answered every concern. I live four hours away which made it difficult to handle all aspects of this estate but I felt totally comfortable with the Gordon team of professionals. Gordon’s did an amazing job.

Made an experience that was overwhelming an extremely smooth and efficient experience. They handle everything, from online auction to condo cleaning, to setting up my dad’s new home in a new city, to selling his condo. All the details were covered well within the estimated cost. Thank you, Gordon’s!

I've used Gordon's twice now and both times they did a great job of managing the liquidation of an estate. They did everything from selling the house and it's contents to providing an evaluation of the value of the house contents to managing the property while it sat empty waiting for the sale to close.

We used Gordon's for our Mom twice. The first move was from her house to a retirement home. She was anxious and there was a HUGE amount of possessions to be gone through. Gordon's management and staff were supportive of her and offered us a thorough in explanation of the process. Then the staff were very efficient in managing the sale and the move. All went better than we expected. The second move was to a long term care facility. It wad important to us to have this move be as smooth as the first. It was! We could not have asked for a better system. Thanks, Gordon's!!

Kudos to Gordon's and their partners in Sudbury for all the help provided in the downsizing of our parent's home. They made what seemed like an overwhelming task into something manageable during a difficult time. Every step of the way there was transparency and open communication. I would not hesitate to recommend Gordon's to family or friends in the future.

The sale of my house went very smoothly, with excellent advice being offered by Don as to what price should be asked, and his reasoning for it. It was a pleasure being able to participate in the write-up for the listing and the very detailed pamphlet that was produced for prospective buyers.Don was very easy to communicate with at all times, which was greatly appreciated and the whole transaction was handled very professionally. The house was marketed at a very just price, and the price was met.It was a painless process and I would highly recommend Gordon's to anyone for selling their home.

By the time my mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's it was already pretty clear that she could no longer take care of herself and would need to move into a retirement community. However, with me being the only family she has, us living 3 hours apart, and my career being extremely demanding at the time, the stress of trying to coordinate downsizing, moving and selling her house all on my own, and in the middle of a pandemic, was more than I wanted to take on. Gordon's Downsizing was suggested to me as a one-stop shop that could take care of all of it. I spoke with Barry Gordon, and he clearly explained the process to me and answered all of my questions, to the point that I was satisfied they would be the right service to engage.Now that everything is done, I can confidently say it was the right decision. From the expert care with packing all of my mother's very valuable antiques and furniture, setting up her new apartment beautifully to make it look like home as soon as she walked in the door, auctioning off the remaining items in the home and to finally selling the house, it all went seamlessly, only requiring very manageable involvement from me. Even when my mother required relocating yet again very soon after the first move, due to needing greater care than originally anticipated, and moving her to an entirely different city to be closer to me, it was a painless experience. Lastly, I really appreciate the patience shown when it ended up taking much longer than I anticipated to be able to give the final go ahead to sell the house. And despite the downturn in the market by that time, they were still able to secure a selling price I was satisfied with. In conclusion, I would recommend Gordon's Downsizing without hesitation!

We downsized after 50 years in same house. Gordon's moved us 4 months ago to a condo. We were very lucky to find them. We were very anxious prior to moving. However a great percentage of our stress was alleviated by Don, Sandy and her team. A great tranquilizer!!Highly recommended.Moira and Steven

My mother has Parkinson's and is terribly frail. Gordon's managed the entire pack and move process from a retirement home to a nursing home perfectly. The day after the move-in, everything looked so perfect that you'd swear she had lived in the new place for years. They were courteous and careful, and kept me posted throughout the entire process, from planning through to execution, which was critical because I live outside the country. I would highly recommend Gordon's any time you need to move, especially with a senior. Thank you, Cathy and the Gordon's team!
