Joe & Nick Santoro are the experts when it comes to painlessly downsizing your home! In fact, they founded Personal Property Managers as a one-stop solution for clients needing to downsize and selling process, including estate sales and clean-outs.
Whether you’re staging your home to sell, or simply trying to spruce up before the holidays, Joe & Nick recommend the following:
• Keep: Heirloom quality china, silver sets and artwork if desired
• Donate: Lower value furniture, incomplete china sets, extra glassware, CD’s and DVD’s
• Discard: Used candles, coasters, incomplete board games and puzzles
• Recycle: Non confidential paperwork, magazines, newspapers, old greeting cards, soiled tablecloths and placemats
• Sell: Crystal bowls, Hummel figurines, Lladro figurines and related collectibles
Wondering where to sell your unwanted valuable goods? Consider eBay for items that are easy to ship, and Craigslist or Wallapop for items that may be more easily picked up (such as furniture). For truly unique collectibles, consider posting your items on any forums or trading boards, as you’re likely to reach a better, more targeted audience. And for books, be sure to cosider selling them on Amazon.
