Selling a home and preparing for a move requires organization in today’s market. While preparing for a move, you tend to go through items throughout the home and decide what to keep and what to dispose of.
There are times sellers have items they would prefer not to move, and have no need for in their new property. Would the buyer want these items? Some sellers put sale tags on certain items within their homes for the buyers to know they no longer need pieces of furniture.
If the buyer does want the furniture, that works, but whatever you do, DO NOT leave your unwanted stuff in the home. You could get charged to pay the trash company to haul off the large pieces, or take it to the dump. There is nothing worse than trying to move in and finding items you need to have removed before you can begin your process!
Leaving a home in “broom clean” order is expected, and even better when you fill the nail holes and shampoo the carpet after you remove the furniture. When you get to closing, and the buyers GUSH about the condition you left the home in, it will definitely make a pleasant closing! I like to let my Sellers know - leave the home in the same condition YOU would want it when you move in!
