Are you trying to pack up your home while showing it to potential buyers but still trying to comfortably live there? All the work involved with these tasks is a huge burden and they all seem to conflict. On one hand, it is still your house and you want to live there but you also want to allow a potential buyers and renters to project their visions of themselves living there. According to Jeffery Stockwell and The New York Times, clearing the spaces you are showing of excess allows a clearer view for the potential customer to envision their lifestyle filling the space. Clean rooms and floors also showcases all of the wall and floor space that your home has to offer.
Jeffrey Phillip, a professional organizer in New York, agreed that the boxes need to go.
“In Manhattan, you’re working with a very limited amount of space, and any space is prime real estate,” Mr. Phillip said. “Even if you shove boxes into a closet thinking you’ll make the living space look good, you’re detracting from the storage space, which is another valuable asset.”
