The Antique Man · Detroit, Downriver & Livonia
Old things.
New beginnings.
I clear the whole house, and I know what your things are worth.
Downsizing, settling an estate, or facing a house packed to the ceiling. I find what has value, pay fair cash for the good stuff, and leave the place broom-clean. No house too full. No judgment, ever.
No cost. No obligation. Just a straight answer.
is still in there.FROM THE VAULT / ILLUSTRATIVE FINDS
An appraiser’s eye. A practical plan.
Someone’s old stuff.
Someone else’s treasure.
Cleaning out Mom’s house from three states away? Settling forty years of belongings? I sort the antiques, rugs, furniture, and valuables, then find the right way forward: cash buyout, estate sale, consignment, or a full clean-out.
A junk hauler charges you $800 and dumps the rug. I pay you for it.
Here’s the differenceWho I help
The houses the fancy companies drive past
Everybody else chases Birmingham and the Grosse Pointes. I go the other way, the working-class Detroit and Downriver holdouts, and the families who inherited a packed house and just need it gone.
Regular family homes
Detroit bungalows, Downriver capes, the middle-class holdouts. Your folks' house is exactly what I do, no realtor gloss, no attitude.
No house too full
Hoarder homes, forty years of stuff, packed basements and attics, I don't care how messy it is, and I never judge. I've seen it all, and I clear it all.
Out of town? I've got it
Settling a parent's estate from another state? I clear the whole house and hand it back broom-clean and realtor-ready, you never have to set foot in Michigan.

Four ways to turn a full house into a clean one
