Whitney Yoder-Bourdiaux is the owner and operator of ezDownsizing Tampa, LLC. She is a Certified Personal Property Appraiser through the Certified Appraisers Guild of America (CAGA). With a background in the field of mental health, Whitney’s passion has always been to help others in a time of need by providing client-centered solutions. Whitney takes pride in being able to continue to help others during difficult life transitions by providing effective and efficient downsizing services.
After earning a bachelor’s degree in Psychology at Baldwin Wallace University in Berea (OH), Whitney moved to Europe to participate in collaborative research programs aimed at enhancing mental health care policies and practices. She also earned her master’s degree in Methodology and Statistics at Utrecht University in the Netherlands. After spending almost 6 years working and studying in Italy, France, and the Netherlands, Whitney moved back to the United States to work as a Data Analyst for a large non-profit mental health agency. As a result of frequently moving, Whitney not only became a huge proponent of furnishing her new homes with second-hand items, but she also quickly became an expert at knowing what to buy, where to buy it, and how much to pay for it. Her expertise in both local and international arts, antiques, and furnishings in no small way led her to becoming a certified appraiser.
Over the years, Whitney would frequently visit second-hand thrift stores to find ‘treasures’ and sell them on eBay to supplement her income. When Whitney stepped down from her full-time data analyst position, she dedicated her new career to providing liquidation services and later operated her own estate sale company, Trusted Heirloom Estate Sale & Downsizing Solutions specializing in online auction estate sale services in Ohio, and eventually Florida.
After learning about ezDownsizing.com by working with their management and using their bidding platform to conduct her online estate sales, Whitney realized the best possible way to support the Tampa region was to simply buy and operate her own ezDownsizing Tampa Franchise. ezDownsizing Tampa (Whitney and her team) provides reliable, efficient, ethical, and professional downsizing services for clients in Hillsborough County. Whitney is passionate about keeping useful items out of landfills and ensuring valuable items are sold competitively to those who are willing to pay the most for them. Not only is Whitney a certified appraiser but also a student of the Asheford Institute of Antiques where she actively participates in continuing education courses.
We are committed to serving you, the customer, in every way possible.
Whitney and team did an amazing job with our recent “downsizing”. They were very organized with the grouping of items, auction logistics and advertising. Once the day came for items to be picked up, they managed the entire process in a professional, quick and orderly manner. They made it “EZ” for us. Highly recommended.

In our experience, the best way to liquidate an estate is typically through an estate sale. There are certain items that may be best sold on their own, but for the most part, we’re able to liquidate all of our seller’s items and leave the residence nearly empty through an online or traditional estate sale.
Whether you’re moving out of state, downsizing to a smaller home, or are a senior looking to relocate and need some help deciding what to keep and what can be sold, ezDownsizing can help you find the perfect solution! For most people looking to downsize or liquidate an estate, the best solution is going to be an estate sale. If you’re looking for more help or want to get started, contact ezDownsizing Tampa today.
