90% of the time when I go to list a home the last place they want me to look at is the garage. It is often followed by apologies about how messy it is and then they just trail off.
First let me say I have rarely found a buyer who cared what the garage looked liked. Almost everyone is in the same boat where their car, much less a boat, would fit in the garage. With that out of the way how about getting rid of the stuff you aren’t using any more and making some cash.
I did a garage sale at an apartment many years ago. Nobody goes to those because they don’t expect you to have much at an apartment. Where I do see flocks of people is a multi-family garage sale. That’s where Vicki Norris from Restoring Order comes in with a great idea.
Vicki Norris is holding her third annual Simplify Sale in Sherwood this weekend.
Featuring over 50 participant stations with tons of household goods for sale, live music, sizzling BBQ, and life-simplifying service providers. Chance to win an organizing makeover! Sale is located at Restoring Order Headquarters: 13691 SW Morgan Road, Sherwood Oregon 97140
SCHEDULE
9 am to 2 pm – Simplify Sale yard sale + live music + BBQ & drinks
2 pm to 3 pm – Station vendors donate unsold items + Simplify Your Life presentations
3 pm to 4 pm – Free organizing workshop by Vicki Norris
A really cool thing is that they will have charities there so you can donate your leftovers, get a tax receipt and be done!
You can still be a part of this sale. Just go to SimplifySale.com and register for a table or go and find some cheap items this Saturday.
