De-Clutter Your Calgary Home "Things"

 

Calgary Alberta


Take a look at your ā€œThingsā€ and what makes you hang onto them.

Our Attachment to ā€œThingsā€

Many of our things help give us a sense of our own identity. For instance, we may have lots of books that we intend to read. But now with Kindle etc they are just gathering dust. Closets full of clothes that we will never wear, why not send them to one of the Calgary Goodwill centers. Our old furniture that we hang onto, now looks out of place with our new minimal ā€œLookā€.

Remember the furniture pieces you got from your grandmother? We also might inherent stuff from other family and friends and these ā€œthingsā€ can have a powerful hold on us. Many times we canā€™t let go of them because theyā€™re a link to a person we love. ā€œThingsā€ from our past can take on their own life!.

Sometimes we buy things to make ourselves feel better after maybe a bad week, or we buy because we are bored.

This is the recipe for a packed home that requires a big investment to keep up. From a cleaning perspective, we go around it all! How many people do you know who have 3 car garage in Calgary, but only use 2 garages and fill the other withā€ Thingsā€.

So make the big push, you just might find youā€™re happier, have more time, and definitely have more space and more money in your pocket. Giving ā€œthingsā€ to Calgary Goodwill also helps someone who needs it more than you, you donā€™t always have to sell it on Kijiji. Its Karma, what you send out will always return.

CONDO STATISTICS DECEMBER 2023- CREB

  LATEST CREB CONDO NEWS - DECEMBER 1 2023 Apartment Condominium - CREB DEC 1 2023 Thanks to the relative affordability of the apartment-style homes, sales continued to reach record highs in November, contributing to year-to-date sales of 7,487. With one month left in the year, sales have already surpassed last yearā€™s record high. This, in part, was possible thanks to the growth in new listings. While inventory levels are similar to levels reported last year, with less than two months of supply, conditions still favour the seller, placing further upward pressure on prices.  The unadjusted November benchmark price reached $320,100 in November, a monthly gain of over one per cent and a year-over-year increase of 18 per cent.
