Selling a family home in transition touches dozens of moving parts. Some we handle ourselves as your real estate team; the rest we coordinate through trusted professionals — so you're never left managing it alone.
Every family's situation is a little different, so our services flex to fit yours. Think of it in two parts: the real estate work our team performs directly, and the trusted independent professionals we coordinate on your behalf. You get a single, steady point of contact overseeing both — from the first conversation all the way through closing.
The core of what we do — the professional real estate services Heather and the Lonestar Living Team deliver themselves.
An honest, side-by-side look at selling as-is or preparing the home — with pricing and marketing guidance for each. See the comparison →
A prioritized, plain-English plan of the improvements worth making — and a clear-eyed look at their costs and likely payoff.
Staging from the team's own inventory, offered at a discount — helping buyers connect with the home and often lifting the offer.
Professional photography, video, and comprehensive listing marketing — including Zillow Showcase where available and appropriate.
Experienced negotiation to protect your outcome, and careful management of the deal from contract through a smooth closing.
Clear communication with every decision-maker, wherever they live — so the whole family stays informed and included.
Work performed by independent specialists — arranged and overseen by our team, so you have one point of contact instead of ten.
Painting, flooring, repairs, landscaping, and professional cleaning through vendors we trust — scheduled and overseen for you.
Practical clean-out help and dump-trailer resources to clear a home efficiently, whatever its condition.
Referrals to professional organizers, reputable movers, and storage solutions to make the physical move manageable.
Connections to donation resources and estate-sale or auction professionals for the belongings a family chooses not to keep.
On request, referrals to trusted attorneys, tax professionals, and senior-living placement advisors — the specialists for legal, tax, and care decisions.
Smooth coordination with title companies, and with executors and trustees, on the real estate side of the closing.
Lonestar Living Team provides real estate brokerage services. We are not attorneys, accountants, tax advisors, or moving, probate, senior-placement, auction, or estate-sale companies, and nothing here is legal or tax advice. The related services above are performed by independent professionals; we're glad to coordinate and refer, but those specialists provide their own services directly.
We learn your situation, the property, the family, and the timeline.
As-is or prepared, a make-ready plan, and a realistic view of the numbers.
We line up staging, vendors, cleanout, and marketing — and keep it moving.
Marketing, negotiation, and a smooth closing — with you informed throughout.
Getting a lifetime of belongings out of a home is often the hardest part of selling — especially in a downsizing or estate sale. So we make it easier: our team brings a 14-cubic-yard dump trailer right to your driveway, reserved for our listing clients.

You only get one chance to make a first impression. Staging minimizes the negatives and accentuates the positives of your home — starting by decluttering and depersonalizing to remove distractions, then showcasing a move-in-ready space that creates a real emotional connection with buyers.
When buyers connect with a home, they’re more committed — often willing to increase their offer, and less likely to ask for concessions or walk at the last minute. The Lonestar Living Team keeps over 1,200 sq ft of our own staging inventory that our sellers can use to stand out from the competition.
