Once we put our house on the market, our realtor encouraged us to do some cleaning out. He said the more open the home is the move inviting it is to potential buyers.
We knew we had a lot of stuff in the house, so we rented a storage unit and de-cluttered. Anything we didn’t need on a daily basis went away.
Wesley rented the storage unit for 3 months. We had an agreement that if our house didn’t sell within those three months, he was canceling the unit and we were selling the stuff.
We have no buyer in sight so when the end of the three months approached, Wesley set a date for our garage sale.
Thursday, he unloaded the unit – I was amazed by how much he had crammed in there! – and we set up shop Friday and Saturday.
We now know why very few garage sales happen in the winter – IT WAS COLD! It was so cold, the boys couldn’t be out for long so I ended up staying inside with them for the two days and Wesley was our salesman.
He did a great job! We got rid of a lot of things we no longer used or needed and made a little too!
