Meet Lottie
Lottie Stevens brings more than 40 years of experience in antiques, personal property appraisal, estate sales and residential contents.
Her knowledge began early, watching her parents buy and sell at antique shows and spending countless hours with dealers, collectors and specialists. Years later, while living in London, she regularly visited auction houses and antiques markets throughout England, Paris and Versailles. These experiences broadened her exposure to English and European furniture, decorative arts and the international auction world.
Lottie also owned and operated a store specializing in midcentury modern furnishings and design. Midcentury remains one of her first loves and an area in which she has developed an exceptional depth of knowledge through decades of buying, selling, researching and studying the market.
That lifelong education developed into a professional career helping families understand what they own, what it may be worth and the best way to bring it to market.
As an Accredited Member of the International Society of Appraisers, Lottie regularly pursues continuing education and closely follows auction results, market activity and changing collecting trends. She combines professional training, practical market experience and well-honed instinct with a deeply personal approach to every estate.
Experienced. Candid. Resourceful. Completely Lottie.
Meet Tim
Tim Stevens brings more than 25 years of professional experience to Sales By Lottie and Tim Sells Tulsa, combining a highly analytical background with credentials in real estate, auctioneering, and personal property appraisal.
Originally from England, Tim earned a degree in Computer Science from the University of North London before beginning his career as a systems engineer with Nortel. His work eventually brought him to the United States for an installation at Williams, where a well timed introduction led him to Lottie. They have been together ever since.
Tim’s appreciation for antiques and collectibles began much earlier. As a boy, he helped his grandmother with her market stalls in England then later his mother. Later, while living in London with Lottie, the two spent their weekends visiting boot sales, antique shows, markets, and auctions throughout England. Tim developed a particular fondness for sterling silver and early Dinky and Corgi toys, along with a practiced eye for quality, condition, and value.
Tim continued his education through the National Auctioneers Association and earned the Graduate Personal Property Appraiser designation. He is also a Certified Probate Real Estate Specialist and an award winning Realtor who has received multiple honors for outstanding production.
His experience makes him especially valuable when a family is navigating probate, settling an estate, or managing the sale of both a home and its contents. Having handled probate within his own family, Tim understands that these transitions are not simply transactions. They are personal, emotional, and often complicated.
Clients appreciate Tim’s calm presence, careful listening, and ability to bring order to difficult situations. He is a thoughtful advocate and a skilled negotiator who works to ensure that his clients feel seen, heard, and protected throughout the process. His analytical mind helps him manage details and solve problems, while his English accent occasionally allows him to deliver remarkably firm advice with such charm that everyone leaves the conversation smiling.
Through Tim Sells Tulsa, he guides clients through the purchase and sale of real estate. At Sales By Lottie, his experience in appraisal, auctions, estate contents, and market strategy provides another highly qualified set of eyes.
Tim is also a black belt in karate, which may explain both his discipline and his ability to remain calm when an estate contains three packed garages, twelve sets of china, and no visible path to the back door.
Tim and Lottie share three children, Winnie, Millie, and Daisy, along with their faithful sidekick, Rosie the Riveter Lee. Rosie is a miniature Australian Shepherd who assists at open houses and estate sales, primarily in the important departments of client relations, security, and morale.
Together, Tim and Lottie offer one experienced team for the home, the contents, and the entire transition.
One team. One plan. One call really does do it all.
