Sell House Fort Wayne

Sell House Fort Wayne

Of all the reasons to sell house Fort Wayne,  the Four Ds dominate. The four Ds are Death in a family, too much Debt, Downsizing in Fort Wayne after the kids leave home, and Divorce.

We hadn’t thought too much about downsizing in Fort Wayne until a friend’s mother decided to sell the big house after her husband died. People accumulate “stuff” over 30 to 40 years. When the house just becomes too big or maintenance overwhelms, a smaller place is logical.

It’s not just the elderly, but 80 million boomers will retire over the next eight and a half years. Many will want to move to warmer weather and smaller quarters. It can be painful to worry about all the collectibles, the furniture, and clothes in the smaller space.

Here in Fort Wayne, the popularity of Tiny Homes caught our attention. It seems this tiny trend is catching on all across the world and Fort Wayne is no exception. Individuals, couples and small families are choosing to downsize their lives to live in much smaller houses that are usually much less expensive than conventional houses. Small tiny homes like this can range in size from less than 100 square feet to up to 900 hundred square feet

For more on downsizing, WikiHow has 12 steps to downsize your house or move into a smaller house. They include:

1. Assess your needs – Deciding what you really need requires a good long look at how you live your life daily and prioritizing the activities and items that arealready a part of your actual lifestyle–not those activities or items that you want to be part of your lifestyle, but haven’t gotten around to yet.
2. Go through your home. Every cabinet, shelf and closet should be cleared.
3. Measure your furniture. – You will need to know how your furniture will (or won’t) fit into your new space – particularly large items such as your sofa and your bed – so measure everything.
4. Assess your new storage areas. – Yes the house or apartment is gorgeous and the views are terrific, but assessing exactly how much of the new space is dedicated to storage will give you an idea of the volume of items you need to dispose of before moving in.
5. Sell your stuff.
6. Move large items first. – Move your furnitureinto your new home first. You will have the most energy for this task at the beginning of the move and it will also give you a better indication of where the smaller things will go.
7. Organize your space as you unpack. – Utilize closet and cupboard storage solutions as you unpack. This way, more can be stored in these tight spaces and you will be setting a precedent for how your new, smaller space will be used.
