A clean garage will help you store outdoor items from the heat and cold, wet weather and provide insight into your home’s condition. Here are a few great reasons why you should clean out your garage this weekend:
Clean And Declutter Before Placing Your Home On The Market
- Organize Things You Need – Some things may have been moved or covered over the year. Find the tools you’ll need to be sure you can upkeep your home while it’s on the market.
- Make Room for Cars – Showcase the garage size by ensuring a car will fit once decluttered. Buyers like to see that they have room for at least one vehicle.
- Uncover Problems – The first sign of a leaky roof is often found in the garage. Check for water leaks and other signs of damage. It’s better that you find them before placing your home for sale.
- Check for Pests – Check for signs of pests. Rat droppings and termite infestations can cause thousands of dollars of damage and will be noted on a termite report before closing.
- Find Extra Space for the Family – If it works for you, set up a small space for the family to gather and play games when the weather doesn’t cooperate.
Turn your garage from a dirty storage area into usable space this weekend. A few hours devoted to clearing and cleaning will be worth the trouble when you place your home on the market.
