Families: estate concierge services to get you out of the chaos, with milestones, evidence, and clear deliverables.
After a death, you must manage access, assets, decisions and, often, tensions. VALORA turns the situation into a managed project: we document, validate, then execute—with traceable deliverables (exportable inventory, time-stamped photos, logs, reports).
WE UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH!
If you feel like “everything is happening at once,” that is normal.
Family liquidators face a mix of logistics and decisions: access to the home, sorting belongings, managing documents, deadlines and, at times, disagreements. The risk is not only the workload: it is improvisation, misunderstandings, and irreversible actions.

FAQ
Can I entrust you with only one step (e.g., inventory)?
Yes. The mandate is modular, depending on your needs.
Who must make the decisions?
The authorized person (often the liquidator). We clarify this point as part of the assessment.
How do you prevent conflicts and accusations?
Through documentation: key log, access log, time-stamped photos, exportable inventory, approvals.
What do you do with personal documents found on site?
They are treated as sensitive: restricted access, documentation, handover according to instructions.
Can you act quickly?
We plan as soon as access and the decision-maker are clear. Some steps depend on authorizations and the parties’ decisions.
Do you help sell the house?
We can coordinate preparation and service providers according to the mandate (e.g., broker), if applicable.
How much does it cost?
$160/hour/person + out-of-pocket expenses at actual cost plus a management fee. Milestone-based work with ranges.
Do you offer a fixed price?
We prefer assumption-based ranges, as on-the-ground reality varies significantly.
Can you store belongings?
Yes, with logs and receipts; storage costs billed at actual cost plus a management fee.
Which regions do you serve?
Montréal, Laval, Montérégie, Laurentides, Lanaudière.
Can your deliverables be sent to a notary or a lawyer?

What happens if the heirs cannot agree?
We proceed with what is clear and pause what requires a decision; irreversible actions require authorization.
