Home Staging

We definitely made a good choice on realtors.  After listing the house with them we took the rest of the weekend to remove and store things from the closets, off shelves and off the walls.  Monday a home stager came over.  I (not so secretly) looked forward to this part.  She was great.  I learned that my taste is not so far off the mark and had already done a lot of the right things to remove the personal stuff and allow the buyers to see themselves in our home. 

 

Listing a house for sale

We have lived in the same house for 38 years and now that we’ve retired we want to move out of the city.  Getting this house ready began 2 years ago before my retirement. I did a one year plan updating, painting and purging that you can see at the Whole Home Make Over here. We found a place in the country and put a contingency contract until we sell our current home.  There will be more about that on a future post, once our current house is sold.
