[quote=Anonymous]Yes to: have your house down to a minimalist situation! I recently cleared out my late parents’ huge longtime home - it sold in one week. But to get there was grueling and I had the help of another sibling, a Realtor, one surviving parent, contractors, movers and a strict timeline. My parents weren’t collectors or hoarders and were generally very organized BUT I can’t express how much STUFF there was. I did it all: opened their garage and allowed neighbors to take what they wanted/some friends asked for specific large pieces with parent blessing, lots trashed, significant amount donated, some moved to parent new apartment, even more divvied upon between family members, small amount in storage. My last parent died 8 months ago and I have yet to open up two moving boxes of loose papers and photos - jumbled “important” items we cleared out of the apartment.[/quote]
