 What To Call Double Closets

  

Depending on the potential couples as clients, I sometimes call the closets 'Hers and Hers' when showing properties.

It is usually funny until one says he has more clothes.  

Then I say, ' Okay, they are now 'His' and 'His.'

There is always a smile, especially when someone first hears this. Our advertising and selling.. needs to have some personality and some fun. 

I have seen the couples teasingly ( I hope ) when visiting this much space, telling the other partner they can have the tiny linen closet. All in fun.

By the way, closets can sell a home; ensure they are neat and organized.

You are lucky to have two closets, no matter what you call them.

Hey Margaret his and her closets are great. Even better are his and her bathrooms in the master bedroom. Now we are talking.

I agree separate bathrooms in the primary suite are highly desired.

I agree about trying to loosen up a bit in our business Margaret.  Seems so many take it all, our themselves, far too seriously.  Make it a great weekend ahead.  mdm

Hello Margaret - real estate definitions seem to change and have a "life" of their own at times.  Flexibility in function seems supported when it is put into action with our use of language. 

When it comes to effective communication with your clients, you are fluent in realty relationships.

Margaret- closets and any storage can be so important!!!  Keep them straight and edited and if you can have nothing on the floor

I fully understand his and hers, and also hers and hers, but the reality is hers and his section of hers

It is certainly a known fact that the woman will always get the bigger closet, haha.

"Closets" may be the next thing that needs to be torn down and renamed ... you know, for the people that may be offended by the term.  

I love my closets ... all of them.  They are all mine, mine and mine. Hers hers and hers. (LOL)!

Hi Margaret.
I am so lucky to have lots of storage in my home. I have two double closets and another closet for shoes and other things in my bedroom.

Great point, Margaret.  Overstuffed closets give the illusion that they are too small.  Now, I'm off to clean my out!😊
