someone hold me

We put our house on the market yesterday and I'm already hyperventilating about keeping everything neat and tidy.  I've gotten seriously relaxed about putting things away recently... I mean with two kids, it's awesome that we make it out of the house.  Our realtor was telling me how important it is to leave the house ready to be shown every time we leave it.  I'm just thinking about how impossible it's going to be to make it to anything on time.  Stress!  Tongue Tied

  • We're putting ours up in the spring.  I fully and completely dread having to keep it show worthy clean.  Good Luck! Hopefully it sells quick so you don't have to deal with it for long!

  • I remember those days.  Not fun with one, I can't imagine two.  But you're in a great area, so hopefully it will move fast.

  • We'vebeen doing it for the past 16 months. It's not fun at all. We've had two contracts fall through, and finally have another one so I hope it doesn't take that long for you guys!

    Oh my goodness! That is crazy... I can't imagine how stressful that has been for you guys!
  • This is the main reason we haven't put ours on the market.  I would love to sell and move, but the thought of keeping it picked up all the time with three little kids makes my head spin.  Good luck!

  • Let me tell you my tricks.

    1. throw laundry in the washer and dryer. or if they are upstairs and you can't deal wit hit, put a basket of laundry in the attic.

    2. A bottle of febreeze goes a long way.

    3. Grab a big storage bin and shove toys in it and put it in the garage for a bit or in the attic. Shove things under the bed if need be

    4. Never leave dishes in the sink.

    If I can do it, anyone can.
