Absolutely the best! B & F are honest, reputable, and extremely fair to both the buyers and sellers. I have been a customer for many years, and have found them to be trustworthy Definitely an A+ in my book!!

I went to her estate sale she had in Coral Springs today. I saw a collectible gun that I wanted for my collection. She saw me walking around with it and offered to keep it near her and watch it for me. I walked around for five more minutes to see what else I could find and didn't find too much. I decided to pay for my item and the gun she was holding for me but when I went to pay she told me that "She didn't see me around and put it back on the table and someone else bought it". If I would've known she was going to sell it to someone else I would've held on to it. She was very rude and untrustworthy to my mom and I. Besides, my mom was holding an item and she told her to put the item down in a nasty tone. I wouldn't go to her estate sales again!

We recently flew to Florida to bring my mother-in-law back with us to California so that she could live nearby in assisted living. Based on great reviews and a very good feeling after an initial phone conversation, we asked Bonnie to handle the sale of the house and the items within it, as she promised that she would take care of all of the details, enabling us to focus on getting Mom ready to come back with us to California. We arrived to find a hoarder house that was grossly infested with bed bugs, and so cluttered and disorganized that even finding many important papers became an impossible task. Things were in such poor condition that we feared we would have to surrender the house back to the bank, rather than bring Mom back with a nice little nest egg in her bank account. Despite the nightmarish conditions, Bonnie and her team were true to their word. While Bonnie rightfully informed us that the house contents could not be sold due to the bug infestation, they cleaned out the house (four dumpsters worth!), found a buyer who was willing to handle the bedbug problem, and somehow managed to sell the house and a car at a small profit for Mom. Anyone else would have walked away from this disaster, but Bonnie stuck with us, worked with us, kept us informed, and managed to get us through it. Anyone looking for someone to manage their estate sale or the sale of their home would be hard pressed to find anyone with more experience, professionalism, ethics, or commitment to their client. We could not recommend her enough.

There are quite a few collectables that I'm always on the lookout for. They always let me know when a sale will have one. Thanks Bonnie!

Bonnie and her team are AMAZING. Following the sudden and unexpected death of our father, B & F immediately began preparing to sell his apartment, as well as everything else remaining in the estate. With great efficiency, they oversaw the cleaning, carpeting, and painting of the apartment, as well as transfer of the car title into our names. They advertised both the apartment and other items from the estate in a variety of outlets and always worked tirelessly to negotiate the best price for us. But they did more than that. When the cable company continued charging us, despite the fact that we had cancelled the service and returned the equipment, B & F took care of it and ensured we never received another bill. When the utilities in our father's apartment were shut off unexpectedly, B & F called the electric company and had them turned on again. When the thermostat broke, B & F had it fixed. And it is worth acknowledging that B& F fronted the costs on almost everything we needed to do in order to prepare our father's apartment for sale. Bonnie and her team also connected us with the most efficient and reasonably priced attorney in Florida, who helped us gain access to our father's bank account as quickly and painlessly as possible. It is truly thanks to B & F that my brother and I were able to return to our lives in NYC, go back to work, and contend emotionally with the loss of our father. B & F literally took care of everything else. I tell everyone in NYC that B&F are so much more than an excellent Estate Sales Company- they were truly post-death caretakers for us. We never would have survived this loss and moved forward without their incredible guidance and assistance.

Organized and helpful but... We arrived the first day of the sale and were in the front of the line to get in. I was disappointed that many of the items had been sold before the sale started to a friends of the sales company. I was told a set of dishes I wanted was sold to a friend for resale. The furniture pieces I was interested in were also sold before the sale. Why leave the photos on-line? The collectibles were priced at the original retail price or I'm sure they wouldn't have been there either. What a waste of our time.
