WE are considering moving in a year or so, from Northeast Texas to somewhere around San Antonio. Our daughter and grandkids all live around there. We have about 2600 sq. ft for just us 2, so we need only a little more than a third of that to live in. Trouble is, it'll take a year or so to clean out and throw out all the excess.
So are you moving away from there? Or just moving? Good luck , and hoping it sells fast.

Lynn, we're in the same position as you, we have 2725 sq ft and just the two of us as well. We're looking to stay in the area, but downsize to around 1700 sq ft. We're going to take about a month to get the house ready, put stuff in storage, some to the landfill and a lot saved for a yard sale. We are pretty much on target to have the house look like the stager suggested. Once we're there, we go on the market and hope for the best. We don't have a clue yet as to where we're going, but our main focus is to get the house ready to show. I don't think we could handle a long distance move, even to the other side of town is further than we want to go. Our last move was about 40 miles, the one before that was closer to 100. The one before that was around 1000 (Houston to Phoenix), and before that about 1500. We find that difficulty is in direct proportion to distance.
