From everyone at Professional Estate Sales, we’d like to say thank you for your continued loyalty and faith in us. Put your feet up and have a well-deserved rest this Christmas and let every day of the holiday season be filled with joy. 2020 has come to an end. I know that everybody has had different circumstances and hardships with this year. I want to thank every single individual personally that came out and saw us at our estate sales and supported our local community and our local businesses. We will continue to practice social distancing and require masks at all our sales until the CDC guidance changes. This upcoming weekend will be our final weekend of 2020 hosting sales. Again, we wish every single client and customer all the best wishes as 2020 comes to a close. I will pray for peace love and joy for all of you.
Happy Holidays, Jonathan

It was brought to my attention this morning that our sale at 151 Graves Rd Fayetteville, GA 30214 resulted in a small traffic jam for shoppers trying to reach the sale. I assure everyone we actively place directional signs directing people to each sale from multiple directions to try and avoid this situation. Unfortunately, when we have a large popular sale like this one this can occur. One of the key things we promise our clients and our customers is a robust marketing program for each sale to ensure the largest attendance possible. If you were inconvenienced we do apologize and hope to see you on Sunday the last day of this sale
I wanted to take a moment and say how wonderful it was to see our VIP members and welcome those who just joined the VIP program this past Thursday at our sale in Sandy Springs. Our VIP program has been growing over the years and we are proud to offer this unique membership and I hope everyone continues to enjoy the privileges it provides.
I also wanted to remind everyone we have several amazing sales coming up over the next few weeks so you can save the date. Our team is working hard to post more photos as early as possible so you can preview the sales and chose the ones you like. Finally, I would like to thank everyone for their patience when sale dates change. We work with our clients to plan sales well in advance however sometimes a client does require a little more time before they are ready for a sale and in some isolated cases they need to hold the sale sooner than planned. We will always try to update our customers as soon as possible when a sales date changes. In some cases, we may send a second email in addition to our weekly sales update to ensure everyone is aware. Have a wonderful week and we will see this coming weekend. Professional estate sales has dedicated ourselves to providing top-notch service for high-end estate sale. We have six high end sales coming over the next two weeks you will not want to miss. I will personally be at the Sandy Springs location in a $2.4 million home with incredible art and unique items that you will never find anywhere else in the United States.
The upcoming sales include: a 4 days sale in Sandy Springs, A VIP sale in an expansive home on a sought after street near the river, this family collected the highest quality art, carpets, furniture, porcelain and sterling silver as well as fine vintage, antique & modern art. We also have a massive sale in Chamblee including Disney Art, Original Barbie and Jewelry. The same week we have a home off Paper Mill featuring Pottery Barn, Henredon, and more. The following week we have a rare mid century modern home featuring tools and artwork in Martins Landing, and finally an enormous sale in Fayetteville in an 8,000 Sq foot home.

As the world slowly adapts to our new norms and we adapt at how best to serve you, our customers and clients safely, I am excited to share with you and upcoming sale next week, Labor Day Weekend. It is the estate of the very well known Atlanta artist Paul Kyegombe.
Paul was one of the top students in Uganda, PLE 1984 whilst at Kisubi, Savio. He was the top student at O’Levels 1988 (6 in 6, 10 in 8), and one of the Top students at A’Levels (AAAA). He was admitted to the Engineering School at Makerere University, 1991, and soon after got a scholarship to study Architecture at Huddersfield University, UK. He graduated with Honors in 1998, and started working for Dyer Brown Architects in the UK. Soon after, he relocated to Atlanta, Georgia to continue his architecture work with Dyer Brown. Many years later, he started his own practice in the city. He was also an avid professional artist, who earned a good living from his artwork, specializing in oil on canvas. His paintings were much admired. A true intellectual, a friend with a great personality. He will be missed by all who studied, played football, and worked with him. I have included his professional bio below for your reference. About PAUL KYEGOMBE I've been drawing pictures since I was a little boy. The rigorous demands of architecture school didn’t stop me from continuing to develop my skill and talent as an artist. While in college, during the summer vacations, I honed my skill as an artist by sketching portraits at various tourist venues around the world. I specialized in the art of skyline painting, creating oil and acrylic paintings that capture the dynamism and energy of a skyline view. I use vibrant, bold colors and heavy textures in an abstract style, exploring the interaction of color and texture. I've created over 30 skyline paintings of Atlanta plus drawings and paintings of all the other US major cities. I also focus on creating large scale portraits of historic and iconic personalities using my signature dynamic painting style.

"My husband and I have walked into my late mother-in-law’s house for the last time.
We are in the process of settling her estate, including the sale of her house and disposition of everything in it. From a hutch filled with china and crystal goblets to overflowing jewelry boxes and coin collections. And everything in between. A lot in between." We are closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation and during these unprecedented times we are proceeding in a manner that is safe and healthy for our crew and customers. We are closely following the advice of the government, WHO, and the CDC and we want to assure you that we continue to operate with safety and health as our top priority.
We will be taking all necessary precautions to ensure the safety of all our customers and crew.

For example, we are now offering a web based receipt system for our clients so they may more easily and quickly have access to their sales histories, including items sold and the amount an item sold for at a sale on any given day. We also have some amazing sales coming up the in January and February, which is filling up quickly to give everyone a chance to find their treasures..
