"My brother and I recently moved our octogenarian parents from Tennessee to Virginia and had to deal with dismantling their home of 40 years. AND, WE ONLY HAD TWO WEEKS TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. We had no idea where to start. I contacted Ms. Davenport . She distinguished between what we thought were most valuable pieces - because they were always so cherished, and pointed out others headed for the worthless pile as having more than a respectable value. Ms. Davenport presented options, once we made decisions and a had plan in place, she offered alternative suggestions to
refine our mission. She had innumerable and unbelievable resources we could call upon to make things happen. We never could have accomplished this unbelievable feat without her professional knowledge, logical and organized process, and her gentle nudging to keep us focused. We came away with not only what we felt was a success story, but
a great educational gift from Ms Davenport -- We now know the difference between "the stuff" and the REAL STUFF. Thank you for being such a greatservice to Nashville."

"Thank you so much - having an appraisal done in the middle of packing was not what I expected. However, you handled it brilliantly and I was able to sell the dining set and hutch for over $5000! Thank you so much. Hope to see you in a couple of years."
