House for Sale

After almost 26 years living in my childhood home, my mother bought a new house a couple months ago. This July she will be moving from the 6,800 square foot house my father and uncle Jim built, to a new construction luxury town home in the Mosaic District. Her new home will be just 4 miles from us (as opposed to the current 8.4) as well as minutes from her work.

My mom had a lot of stuff to get rid of to get the house ready for sale, so I was there many days last month cleaning, organizing and packing.  It was a HUGE job, but we got the whole place clean, staged and ready for sale.

Here is our listing, and here is a slide show of photos a photographer took.  We had an open house today, so hopefully she will sell quickly, so my mom can get ready for her big move.

Here are some before and after photos from the clean up:
