I can not say enough about Justin or his team they did a sale and clean out for my Uncle's home ( He moved into Assisted Living) They did a fantastic job! They did a much better job then I expected They even sweep the floors If you need anything They offer i would look no further I can not say one thing I think they could have done better GREAT JOB !!!

Sadly, we lost our loved ones very quickly. They left behind their home and belongings. We are very grateful to Caring Transitions of South Dayton. Jean and her team took an extremely overwhelming situation and gave us peace of mind that it would be taken care of. What would have taken us months to do, was completed in a few short weeks. We highly recommend their services. Kind, professional, and efficient. If more stars were to be given, it would be 10!

Jean was fantastic to work with. Everything was taken care of in a timely and professional manner. I just can’t stress enough how fantastic Jean was to work with, she takes complete responsibility for the job and communicates any issues effectively.

I have been bidding on the South Dayton estate sales for the past year and enjoying myself as I then shop at the after sale/pickers’ sale. During this time, I have been impressed with the professionalism of the workers, their pleasant demeanor at all times, and the unbelievable organizational skills they possess in order to sort through, categorize, and present the items online. Pictures are often grouped with similar items, accurately represented by multiple photographs, and placed up for bidding. The charges on top of the bidding have always been made clear, but this has been improved recently. Before the bid is placed, the buyer’s premium amount is shown. As with just about everything we purchase, there is also a sales tax. There are various ways to bid, but if you want to limit your spending, you can simply bid the highest price you are willing to pay. If you bid $15 and allow for the buyer’s premium (18%) and tax (7.8%), you know you will pay less than $20 for your purchase. Of course, if you cap your amount this way, you may lose out on the bid. An email will be sent notifying that you have been outbid so that you can bid higher if you’d like. However, if the bid only goes up to $5, that is the amount you will pay – not the $15. If people are not bidding against you, your total does not rise. (This is stated more clearly online, but bidding starts at $1 and grows as others bid against you.) It is also clearly stated on their site that mailing is very expensive and will sometimes be higher that the item itself. Mailing is higher than ever, and anything being mailed today will incur a decent expense. If purchasing a large or heavy item, I would not recommend this option. I will say that I have been pleased with my purchases, and that as I picked up my items, I regretted not bidding on some of the other items that I saw during pick up. Pictures are excellent, but some items just look better in person. I have grown to appreciate the employees, and I have made observations about their hard work during my visits. Cammi usually greets us in her usual upbeat and prepared manner. Her many coworkers (I wish I could name them all) help us find our purchases throughout the home and help in various ways. While being respectful of the buyers at the sale, the employees also honor the family. Privacy is respected as well as care to the family’s home. Jean Hodge, CEO of Caring Transitions of South Dayton, does an outstanding job presenting the auction goods on the website. She and the team help families make decisions on what to auction, donate or toss with their caring personalities. All of these observations have led me to tell my own children to use CT Bids when needed if they have to make that decision as we age. Whether transitioning to a new home, a residence where necessary care can be provided to an aging parent(s), accepting the loss of a spouse or parent, or just downsizing - these services are priceless. Yes, this is too long, but I have many good things to share! Patty Geroni

Our experience with the CT estate liquidation was great. Basically, we handed over the keys to the house and came back a few weeks later to an empty house and a check. No fuss and no drama, and CT kept to their schedule. We were also very pleased with the professional organization and presentation of the auction goods on the CT website. Thanks!
