We have been considering putting our house up for sale for the last several years. Today we finally did it. There is a sign in our yard and the house is ready, well almost. We have a couple of finishing touches to complete before our first open house on Saturday.
I love the way our house looks, we got new carpet, granite counter tops and de-cluttered the house. It is so relaxing walking into a perfectly clean house. The challenging part is keeping the house clean with three kids. We took most of the toys to storage to help keep everything clean. I tend to be a perfectionist so I want to walk behind the kids and clean every fingerprint and straighten the blankets, but it is not practical.
In the past we have sold houses very quickly. I am hoping for the same results at this house. We love our house and are so sad to leave. However we have outgrown the space. Thad and I moved in eight years ago, this was before kids. We did not have enough furniture to fill the place. Now we are bursting at the seams.
I am sure another family will love this house as much as we do. Here is to hoping for a quick sale!
