In selling my home in CT - the comment that got me was "I really love the house, but I don't think I could live with that red bathroom".
Ummm, I think a gallon of paint would solve that problem!
But they must've forced themselves to overlook it because they bought it.
I had furniture from my divorce that I did NOT want to take on my move to GA - I called the Salvation Army - they arrived with their truck and away everything went. I provided a generous donation to the needy and a great deduction for me at the same time.
There's nothing like starting fresh and very light with a relocation - That's the way to go IMHO.
