| Many of you are moving out of your home where you've spent decades. There are a tremendous number of details to keep in mind. Ron understands this. His parents lived in their home for nearly forty years. Ron took weeks to sort through all of the household items, and then even longer to figure out what to do with them. All of this took him from his family for many days, and he had trouble getting work done. Sound familiar? During this process, Ron made a mistake that he will help you avoid. Call Ron first 757.650.7206 In his haste to finish the job and get back to work and family, Ron unintentionally tossed out some valuable items. He saw many similar items at antique stores months later. Ron's Recommendation #1: Let the Pros Handle the Estate Sale That's why, in Ron's senior real estate strategies in the Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Eastern Shore, and Hampton Roads, VA areas, he always recommends you use professional estate sale specialists from his select list of service providers. Let the professionals handle the sale of your extra furniture and other items. Why? It saves you money in the long run. You see, the professionals know far better than most people what most of their belongings are worth. The professional estate companies know the difference in the old scratched chair that's worth $5 and the one that may get over $500. You see, the professionals will get you a higher price in most cases, through their years of experience and their multiple resources to research prices for unusual items. Also, the professionals typically have a following of buyers that follow them to their sales. They know there will likely be high-quality antiques and other unique items for sale. So, your goods will get better exposure and better selling prices if you use experienced professionals for your estate sale. Yes, the estate sale people will charge you for their services. But in Ron's many years of experience, the costs of a professional estate sale are far outweighed by the additional money they make you. Plus, you will save hours of your precious time. Not convinced? Learn about some pricey belongings Ron has seen given away at do-it-yourself yard sales. Also, remember that totally emptying a large home that has been lived in for years is an overwhelming task. There will be hundreds and hundreds of belongings and furniture (possibly obscure and unusual valuable antiques) that you may not know how to handle. Ron's advice? Let the professionals handle the hard work. Save yourself time, stress and money. Of course, there are things you'll want to take to your new home, or give away to friends and family. Just let the experienced estate sale professionals handle the rest. Ron's Recommendation #2: Spruce Up Your Home if necessary Next, Ron will look at your home and offer any painting or other recommendations to improve the look of your house to get you the best price. Ron will be able to tell you what's worth fixing and what isn't. Could refinishing your hardwood floors net you a few extra thousand dollars, for example? Ron can tell you. Following Ron's advice, you'll have a quicker sale and a higher price than if you sold the home in its normal condition. Ron can provide a list of qualified professionals to perform this work for you. And you pay no referral fees whatsoever. Of course, you can always choose your own service providers. In Ron's experience, the costs of sprucing up your home will be far outweighed by the additional money you will net on your home sale. Next, Ron will list and sell your home for top price. This is the only time when Ron makes money: on the real estate commission for your home sale. All other time and money-saving coordinating services Ron provides as your senior real estate consultant, he provides at no charge. Contact Ron today and relax. Let Ron's senior real estate strategies ease all your downsizing burdens. |
