The Robert Parkinson Estate featured three pieces of real estate in different parts of Michigan, a large collection of personal property, assets of multiple classes and several heirs. In 2019, Leist Auctioneers successfully assisted the Parkinson family in resolving this estate in far less time than their estate attorney had suggested. The resulting auctions of personal property and real estate exceeded the family's expectations by over $150,000.
