We all know that space sells, what everyone is looking for is a place to put all their stuff!  We commonly hear “I can’t afford storage”.  Well if you want to sell your home you can’t afford not to!  If can’t store excess items with freinds or family off site storage is a must!  Just think if your house sits on the market for 3 months your Realtor will most likely be asking for at least 1 price reduction lets say for a total of $20,000.  If your mortgage payment was $1000 a month the total would be $23,000 less and you  still haven’t sold your house.  If you got storage in the begining to visually enlarge the space for approx. $200 a month.  Chances are your home would of sold and you would be moving out by 3 months.  Clearing clutter is the single most important thing you can do to increase the value of your home.  Statistics prove that a staged home will sell on average for 50% faster and for 7% more money, and just think you will be half packed!
