Drew was very knowledgeable, kind, charismatic and professional. I enjoyed the time. I felt bad about (his neighbors construction). He powered through though, like a true professional. I learned a lot. He even went over our one hour session by 15 minutes, with no extra charge. I will not forget your generosity. As I can afford you, I will come again for your expertise and in the interim I will absolutely recommend you, your company and your services!
Monica W., New York, NY
The Magnuson Group is one of the very best specialized companies in the tri-state area. I met Lauren for old-master oil paintings, for estate sales and for her auctions. Lauren and her associates, Jack and Lori, are knowledgeable, experienced and prompt in answering key questions, whether it is artwork, antiques, silver or jewelry.

We recently experienced The Magnusson Group "difference" with our estate sale. From the start, Drew, Donna, Lori, Lauren, and the rest of the wonderful team were nothing short of spectacular. They brought their A++ game, and unique expertise, to guide us through the process during the very stressful and emotional period of selling and moving our of home of 29 years. And they did it all with a smile and warmth. A very professional team to say the least.

The Magnusson Group helped me downsize and took care of emptying a huge house and selling furniture and items that I no longer wanted or needed. They did a fantastic job!
Lisa B., Warren, NJ
Faced with emptying my parents' house in a short period, my sister and I were referred to the Magnusson Group and could not be more pleased with their service. After almost 70 years of marriage, their 4 bedroom house was chock full of "stuff" - furniture that ranged from inexpensive big box finds to higher end pieces purchased with a decorator in High Point, countless sets of dinnerware and cutlery, holiday decorations, and so on. It was overwhelming. Drew and his team were professional and kind. They quickly figured out what could be sold, what was suitable for donation, and what was headed for the bin. When my sister and I returned to the house, it was completely empty and broom clean. We are so pleased with the service offered and highly recommend the Magnusson Group!
Allison H., New York, NY
Their team is smart, organized and very adept at appraisals and pricing. Also, and most importantly, they always manage to have superior finds in art and antiques! Drew, Lauren and the team always provide a top notch experience for the customer, and I highly recommend them for estate appraisals and sales.

Your thoroughness, organization and perseverance were impressive. But most of all, your willingness to take all this on despite the restrictions and to accommodate all my last minute requests so pleasantly was greatly appreciated. I very much enjoyed our relationship and will eagerly and unreservedly endorse you to anyone looking for a world class estate sale company.
Lauren W., Upper Saddle River, NJ
Our experience with The Magnusson Group was five-star! Moving is an extremely stressful process and they provided tremendous piece of mind during a very hectic time. From the first meeting with Lauren to the final item being sold, they executed their every move with professionalism and efficiency. Lauren and her team provide such a level of control and comfort that you literally sit back and let them handle everything for the sale.
Paul S., Bernardsville, NJ
Great team! Everyone was so professional, knowledgeable, friendly and easy to work with. Very happy with sales results.
John C., Madison, NJ
The Magnusson team was at all times welcoming and gracious. I'm a complete newbie to the world of antiques, so their encouragement was essential to drawing me into this process. I thank them for taking on my project, and for leaving me in a better place than when I started. In fact, my house now looks so good I may take it off the market and enjoy it awhile longer!!
Sukey F., Mendham, NJ
I am glad the sale went so well. I know my uncle is pleased. You all have been wonderful through this whole process, making it so much easier to disassemble my uncle's house.
Louis G., Fort Lee NJ
Let me take this opportunity to say how much I appreciate your professionalism, efficiency, and thoroughness. Rest assured, I will convey these thoughts to Sam Cereste, the estate lawyer, who had the good sense to recommend your services in the first place.
John B., Cranberry NJ
I am overwhelmed with appreciation for your professionalism and your kind hearts. Folks like you renew my faith in people. God Bless you both and thank you for giving me such a fair price. Your generosity will not be forgotten. I’m gonna get through this,.. but it’s only because of God working through folks like you.
Darlene and Larry G., Montclair NJ
Lauren, Drew, and the rest of the team were highly knowledgeable concerning a wide variety of items. When they say they can sell anything and everything, it’s true. On the first day of our sale, buyers were lined up in our driveway at 7:30am. We were extremely pleased with their professionalism, especially in with the way they conducted the sale. A pleasure to work with, and we highly recommend them. They proved to us that they are the premier estate sale company. Look no further, the Magnusson Group is the best!
Tom C., Mountain Lakes, NJ
The staff was very professional and easy to work with throughout the whole process.
