Selling Your Home And Selling Your Belongings


Tips For Living In Your For-Sale-Home - If you will be living in your home while it is the process of being sold, you can continue to make it feel like home, while having it sale ready and available for the next viewing. It can be a delicate balancing act of life versus business, but it can be done without sacrificing your sanity. Taking the proper time in the beginning to create a presentable “staged home” will make the home more desirable and hopefully sell quicker.

How To Protect A Vacant Home After Moving - Many times, a home that someone has moved out of may become the target of thieves and vandals, or even illegal “squatters,”. Without having to invest in a high-end security system, there are ways in which the old home can be protected. The good news is that there are precautions that you can take to secure and protect your home, while at the same time preserving its beauty for the new owners.

Downsizing Your Home - When the time comes to move, it is an opportunity to downsize by reducing and simplifying possessions and unnecessary clutter. It is important to know what questions need to be asked when it comes to downsizing, but once the process has been completed, you may find yourself with a much more pleasant move and rewarding lifestyle in your new home!

How to Plan a Pre-Moving Garage Sale - Moving brings many opportunities when it comes to minimizing some of the “stuff” that might have accumulated over the years. Garage sales provide an excellent opportunity for you to lighten your load, save time and money on your upcoming move, and allow your neighbors to potentially add some interesting new items to their various collections.

How to Plan an Estate Sale - Much like garage sales, estate sales are a common and efficient method of liquidating belongings from a home. The first rule to a successful estate sale is to allow yourself plenty of time to plan. If you choose to organize your own estate sale without using the services of an estate sale professional, it can be achieved successfully with thorough planning, organization, and patience.

The Differences - Garage Sales, Yard Sales, Estate Sales And More - If you are thinking about having a sale in your community, or even online, to sell your used items not making the move with you, knowing the subtle differences between each type of sale can help determine which one will suit your needs. Once you have made yourself knowledgeable about all the diverse types of sales, before hosting your own, perhaps you would like to do some research out in the field and rummage through some different sales.

What is an Estate Sale - Estate sales are excellent sources for buying or selling large assortments and amounts of items from a single household. Some homeowners have been collecting for decades. Estate sales are common for finding some of the best antique furniture, vintage clothing’s, and fine China along with some exceptional pieces. An estate sale is basically the sale of items from an estate/home, a way to liquidate the entire belongings of a household.

Where to Donate Items Before Moving - When the time comes to start getting ready, organizing your belongings, and preparing your home for the move, it can be an exciting time to think about what is important enough to take with you, and what you need to consider eliminating. Different items hold different meanings for different people, and letting go of these items is a decision that will need to be made in a timely manner prior to moving day.
