What does help with an estate cost?

It depends on the size of the home, the amount of belongings and which parts you want help with. The calculator above gives a guide price for your situation, and you receive the fixed price in writing before anything starts. The value of what is sold from the estate is credited to the estate and lowers the net cost.

The estate itself. The cost is taken from the estate's assets before the inheritance is divided, just like the funeral cost. The heirs do not normally have to pay anything out of their own pocket.

The price is driven by things that show in the film or in the home: the amount of belongings, access, basement and storage rooms, and the need for cleaning. That is why the real price is set as a fixed price in writing after we have gone through your film and answers, and it does not change without your yes. If the estate inventory (bouppteckning) is included and it turns out that there is a will, assets abroad, a business or a dispute between heirs, you receive a new price in writing for the estate inventory, and nothing more is done with it until you have approved it. If you say no, that part of the assignment ends, and you pay nothing for the work we have already done on the estate inventory.

Sometimes, if you have time to call around, compare and coordinate the firms yourselves. With us you get a fixed price in writing for everything and one contact throughout the assignment.

It can turn out that way, and the difference from us is who sets the value of the belongings. The buyer values them and offsets that value against its clearing cost: if the value is higher you get the difference, if it is lower you pay it. With us the estate pays a fixed price and the belongings are sold openly, where you see every price. The money from the sale is paid straight into the estate's account, after the auction house's own fees, which show on its statement. Our fee for the sale, vehicles included, is 5 percent of what is paid into the estate account, at least 1 500 kr and at most 4 000 kr including VAT, and never more than 20 percent of what is paid in. It is not deducted from the proceeds, it is invoiced separately in the final statement. Example: clearing and cleaning cost 20 000 kr and the belongings are worth 15 000 kr. The buyer takes 5 000 kr, or 0 kr if the belongings are valued at 20 000 kr. With us the estate pays a net 6 500 kr (20 000 kr minus 15 000 kr in sale proceeds plus our fee of 1 500 kr), before the auction house's fees, and you have a receipt for every sale. You are welcome to get both alternatives before you decide.

They are valued and sold on behalf of the estate. Vidare never buys anything from the estate: the sale is reported openly. The money from the sale is paid straight into the estate's account, after the auction house's own fees, which show on its statement. Our fee for the sale, vehicles included, is 5 percent of what is paid into the estate account, at least 1 500 kr and at most 4 000 kr including VAT, and never more than 20 percent of what is paid in. It is not deducted from the proceeds, it is invoiced separately in the final statement.
