Handling the inheritance of a loved one can be overwhelming. Vendu Rotterdam has more than 200 years of experience and expertise in the appraisal, division and auctioning of inheritance. We can help you take care of your inheritance in a professional manner, from appraisals to the clearing of a dwelling. We offer both a national and international stage for objects in every price range. Vendu Rotterdam adheres to the ethical code of Federatie TMV (Dutch Federation of certified appraisers, brokers and auctioneers in movable assets).

Will and inheritance

When a person has passed away and leaves an inheritance, his or her possessions are divided among the heirs. Who the heirs are is stipulated by law. Besides this, the deceased could have drawn up a will with a notary, in which the division of the inheritance is laid out in detail. One of our affiliated notaries can advise you regarding the execution of a will.

Appraisal report

The inheritance consists of the household effects of the deceased, among other things. When you are looking to make a fair division of the inheritance among the heirs, we can determine the value of the possessions and make an objective appraisal report. The goods can be divided among the heirs based on this report. Next to that, the report may be used for the purpose of any inheritance declarations with the tax authorities.

You can find our rates for appraisals here.

Please note: an appraisal report is always written in case of an appraisal for inheritance.

Auction of goods

In case the heirs decide to resign (part of) the inherited goods we offer the option of auctioning them for you. For more information on the procedure of the consignment of goods, please click here.

Clearing of a dwelling

Vendu Rotterdam is committed to completely unburdening relatives regarding the inheritance. Besides our appraisals we arrange the clearing of dwellings in cooperation with Jan den Otter Transport B.V. If desired, we come and collect your consigned goods and make sure that all other items are properly disposed of. You can find more information on the page Transport & Clearing.
