Being Clutter Free can be Worth Thousands

In listing and viewing many homes, there is a trend that we have seen. If your home when listed is clutter free, you will be getting top dollar for it. We have walked into too many homes where there is a large mess in a particular room, the floor hasn’t been vacuumed (in quite a while) and in general it is very cluttered. In some cases, the home could be sold for up to $10,000 more, if it was only cleaned!

We here are at The Chamberlain Group have a staging and cleaning team that will come into your home, assess your current clutter status, give advice, and help clear out, clean, pack boxes etc. to have your home in, or as close to show home condition. We will not move, or change anything that you do not agree to first.

When you are doing the cleaning around your home, and would like to donate or drop off some clothing, household items etc. We have compiled a list for you of the different locations around Calgary.
