Save Weeks, or Months Preparing Your Home for Sale!

I clearly remember the time and energy it took to declutter and depersonalize our home to get it ready for photos and listing. At that point, I was working over 40 hours a week, while my husband focused on the final renovations to prepare the house for sale.

We had a specific goal: to sell our home for $1.4 million and build our retirement home on my husband's two acres of reserve land. To achieve this, there were certain tasks that needed to be done. I oversaw the sorting, purging, and packing of our belongings in a large 3-bedroom home (on the upper floor) and a 3-office commercial space (on the lower level), all while working full-time. 

It took me nearly three months just to declutter and depersonalize our home and business.  The sorting, purging, and packing was overwhelming, and it took time away from family and social activities.  Both my husband and I were exhausted and stressed out.  At that time, I was unaware that Home Transition Specialists Inc™ services and support existed. 

Hiring a team from Home Transition Specialists Inc.™ would have
saved me an incredible amount of time, tears, and stress.

We achieved our goal: the house sold for our listed price, and we built our retirement home on the two acres of land.

However, the time it took for two busy homeowners to complete all the prep-for-sale tasks delayed the fruition of our goal, which, in turn, increased our transition costs, such as storage fees.

Since then, I have become a Certified Relocation and Transition Specialist™ , an HTS Inc.™ Licensee, and a Lifestyle 55+ Affiliate allowing me to work full-time to help other homeowners save time and money while preparing their homes for sale and easing the burden of their transitions... but that’s a story for another day!

Home Transition Specialists Inc™ offers efficient and compassionate support to homeowners preparing their homes for sale. By helping sellers declutter and depersonalize their homes, potential buyers can easily envision their own furniture and personal items in the space. This crucial step not only enhances the home’s appeal but may accelerate the selling process.  A shorter time on the market can potentially lead to sellers receiving their asking price or closing the sale more quickly.

Home Transition Specialists Inc.™ helps homeowners streamline
the preparation process and maximize their property’s potential.
