PROFESSIONAL HOME STAGING:

Our Staging technique is to utilize the homeowner's own furnishings, selectively rearranged to make their home appealing to the highest number of potential buyers and to sell it more swiftly and for more money.

VERBAL APPRAISALS:

We can help prospective sellers learn more about the value of any Antique,  Art and/or Vintage Collectibles, whether inherited or purchased, that they are now considering selling.

ESTATE LIQUIDATIONS:

To maximize clients' returns and minimize their stress and involvement during lifestyle changes, we hold Estate Sales for our clients. We can handle all details of your sale from start to finish.

PRIVATE SALES:

We can broker sales of a single item or a complete collection through our carefully developed extensive network of potential qualified private buyers and trusted specialty dealers.

SECONDARY MARKET:

We can also sell your items on the Internet through our Etsy and eBay stores or on an Online Auction, as well as at Live Gallery Auctions nationwide.

Kathy Vossler

Kathy Vossler found design and decorating to be her niche.  During the 80’s & 90’s she owned a boutique decorative fabric store in Columbus, Ohio.  She became known for her expertise in the layering of textures and the importance of coordinating colors in walls, rugs, upholstery, and draperies to create a warm, inviting, cohesive whole.

In the first part of the new century, Kathy moved to Colorado where she and her daughter Heather opened one of the first upscale consignment shops on Pearl Street in Boulder, selling unique quality home furnishings and accessories…vintage, contemporary, European and American traditional, and country chic.

Their store “Feather Thy Nest,” quickly became a trusted outlet for art, antiques, vintage, and “stuff too good to throw out.”  This became the basis for the formation of Kathy and business partner Marybeth’s exciting new business adventure…K & V Estate Advisors!

Together she and Marybeth use their combined extensive experience in their new home-staging business, which utilizes the homeowner’s own furnishings, selectively rearranged, to make their homes more appealing to potential buyers.  Marybeth’s appraisal experience and contacts made through the years contribute to the other services provided by K & V Estate Advisors.
