Sellers: How to Host a Successful Garage Sale

August 16th, 2021 by Counselor Realty

Successful Garage Sale - Home Sellers - Counselor Realty

Looking to sell your home this year? If you're planning on putting your house on the market like these Detroit Lakes and Edina homes for sale, you'll want to invest some time into decluttering. Clean, uncluttered homes sell faster and fetch higher prices.

Every second Saturday of August is National Garage Sale Day. It's a perfect time to get rid of unnecessary clutter and make some cash while you're at it. While garage sales sound like an easy endeavour, they can quickly become overwhelming if you haven't adequately prepared. To help you through the process, here are some tried-and-tested tips that will ensure a smooth, stress-free, and profitable clearance.

Check Local Laws and Regulations
Depending on where you live, odds are you'll need a permit to hold a garage sale on your property. It's important to check in with local authorities early enough to ensure you get the permit ahead of time. With a permit in hand, you can rest assured that things will proceed smoothly. Proceeding with an unpermitted sale could make you liable for three-figure fines. It's better to err on the side of caution.
