Synopsis
Treasure hunting begins at home. Host John Sencio ventures into homeowners' attics, basements, garages ... every nook and cranny to search for those not-so-obvious family heirlooms that just might make the inevitable trip down memory lane.
Expert appraiser Tim Luke and Christine Downing let homeowners know the hidden value of their finds. If the family can part with the newfound assets, the items are sold at auction and the newfound money funds a home project or purchase.
While the object is clearly for the family to make enough money for them to achieve their goals, the outcome is by no means a foregone conclusion.
Combining fascinating tales of family history with circumstance and the unpredictability of the auction room, Cash in the Attic is guaranteed to get you rummaging through your closets.
