Let's talk about closets
Take this time to clean and organize the closets in the home. Looking back to Day 4, we want to showcase all the amazing storage space your home has to offer. This step is particularly important if the bedrooms have smaller closets as I've seen Buyers walk away from the perfect home because of closet size. Think, WWMKD? (What would Marie Kondo do?)
Remember you will only need about a month's worth of clothes, shoes, towels and linens on-hand. I've seen people donate 4-5 trash bags full of old towels when they get to this phase. What is your "old towel" addiction?
Keep in mind, you will be packing up the closets as soon as the house goes under contract, so you might as well start now. It will make the actual move less of a chore, AND Buyers will be able to see the extra space in the back of the closet.
So grab those totes and boxes and donate, pack and toss!
