MEET OUR TEAM
IRIS DAVIS - OWNER / OPERATOR
Iris grew up in Cartersville and currently resides in Ellijay with her husband Jerry and black lab JoJo. Iris is an active real estate agent which led to the creation of Shadetree Partners Estate Sales. As an avid Estate Sale shopper when traveling she quickly saw a need for those services in North Georgia. Many times she would have a client selling a second home where the new buyer did not want to purchase the furnishings and the seller was at a loss as to what to do with the items in the home. Hosting an Estate Sale was the perfect answer for her clients. Iris is still an active real estate agent and licensed appraiser.
When not hosting Estate Sales or selling real estate Iris enjoys traveling and shopping estate sales. She also enjoys spending time with family and friends.

WHAT DO WE LOOK FOR AT ESTATE SALES?
As we said when not hosting Estate Sales we like to shop Estate Sales. This helps give us an idea of the market and how other companies may price items so that we can make sure we are competitive within the market. So what do we look for when we are shopping an Estate Sale?
Iris is always on the lookout for silver - sterling items are what she has fun treasure hunting for while at sales.
Beth always enjoys looking for vintage Pyrex dishes in different patterns. She not only loves the look of them but also loves using them.
Maddie is always on the lookout for games. Doesn't matter if it is a board game or an outdoor game that is her go to. To date she has about 7 different versions of Clue and her favorite outdoor game from an Estate Sale was bocce ball.
Dustin is always going to head for the tools. As he tells Beth... "You can never have to many tools."
Justin likes anything vintage and unique.... he likes to search for straight razors and vintage toys.
And Jerry rounds out our bunch and can typically be found checking out the book section at an Estate Sale. He likes to look for vintage books or his next good read.
We hope that lets you get to know us a little better.
