For many sellers, the most challenging aspect of selling a home is deciding what to do with unwanted items. Pre-sale preparation and moving typically involve cleaning closets and donating or selling items that are no longer wanted. There are many donation options available on the San Francisco Peninsula including:Goodwill, The Salvation Army, Career Closet, and The Costume Bank in Los Altos Ca. to name but a few.
For those pet lovers out there: many local pet rescue groups accept donations . One example is the Peninsula Humane Society’s Pick Of The Litter thrift store located in Burlingame.
For more valuable items, sellers may want to consider Consignment Shops or full service Estate Sale companies. Typically these shops and services charge a percentage of the gross proceeds.
There are numerous organizations and services available to help with both donations and the sale of items that are no longer wanted. Many sellers like to focus on charitable organizations they have supported through the years for their donations. Often the best way to get started is with a simple list . It is important to check for references before placing items for sale or donation!
For those senior sellers needing more assistance there are professional move consultants who can manage the entire process.

As Silicon Valley’s real estate market continues its strong pace, I thought it would be interesting to compare median price data for sales reported to the local Multiple Listing Service for Sept 2011 and Sept 2012 as computed by Trendgraphix. (This data does not include “off market” sales.)
The data confirms that prices have moved upward ( a reflection of our very competitive market):
