Many people have questions about the moving process. As a local Minneapolis Realtor, I handle real estate transactions every day, so moving is second nature.

Take the first step by getting rid of clutter.

- Declutter your home. Everyone has a lot of stuff, even if some of it happens to be junk. If you’re getting ready to move, you can pack away things you don’t need. You can even give away or donate items that you don’t use anymore. Put things in storage. It’s unbelievable how much stuff you can acquire. Take that first step and get rid of the clutter.
- Deep clean your home. There might be some little things that you take for granted, but buyers walking through your home will see everything. They’ll see the dust on top on the refrigerator, or a dirty ceiling fan. It can be hard to keep your house clean, but at the end of the day, doing so will help you move faster and make more money.
- Get your kids involved. Most kids are competitive, so make it into a game. See who can clean up the fastest, or whatever you need to do to get them involved. That way, they can get excited about the move, and they won’t be underfoot while you’re getting ready to move.
