We also have a gorgeous store front in beautiful historical downtown Kerrville, Texas located at 826 Water Street. Rachel Fitch began her journey with estate sales in Austin, Texas in 1991. Her first exposure to estate sales was through her mother-in-law and father-in-law. They had been in the antique business since the 1970's. Ed Fitch, Rachel's father-in-law first taught her how to refinish furn
iture. Rachel has enjoyed many days watching Ed turn a painted oak dresser into a work of art. Ed and Katie both noticed her interest in antiques and began to foster it by giving her antique books to read. That's when they noticed Rachel's ability to identify items rather quickly. Her first remembered purchase was a large Buck pocket knife picked up at a family run estate sale for $1.00. She took it to Ed and he told her she just made $100.00. Rachel started going to estate sales and picking up merchandise for her antique booths. She went to many estate sales in the Hill Country and saw exhausted families selling the contents of their homes or that of a passed loved one. She began to realize that most families didn't know what they had. Rachel saw many items undervalued and undersold and it saddened her to see so much money leaving the hands of the family members. So she decided to go to the "other side of the register" and use her knowledge to become an advocate for the family that needed an estate sale. After moving to Kerrville in 1992, she saw a need for an estate sale company in the Hill Country. Rachel conducted 2 to 3 sales a year in those days.
