Guide for Inheriting & Selling a Hoarded Home
Whether a loved on passed away, or you have taken ownership of a home that has been hoarded in, it is a challenge to move forward. The amount of clutter & trash that has been accumulated can often-times be overwhelming.
The obvious goal when inheriting a hoarder’s home is to clean up the clutter & make it livable once again. After that has been done, you can decide what to do with the property whether to keep it or sell it.
Selling a Hoarder’s Home As-Is
While you can sell a hoarder’s property in as-is condition, you will be receiving pennies on the dollar versus the true value of the home. For example, if a home is worth $225,000 in normal condition, it may sell for $50,000 if it has been affected by hoarding. Therefore, there is a $175,000 loss in value if the home is sold as-is to a cash buyer.
A better solution would be to invest a nominal amount of money into having the hoarded items cleaned up. Compare this to losing tens of thousands of dollars in potential sales price and it is a no brainer!
Hoarded Clutter Cleanup
While some hoarder cleanup projects can be accomplished yourself, it is often best left to an extreme hoarding cleaning company. These companies specialize in the work of cleaning up after hoarding. They can leave the home looking like the hoarding never even happened.
Many of these hoarding clutter cleanup services offer a full-service cleaning service. From organizing belongings, to junk removal, to extreme cleaning & sanitizing, they can do it all. After the hoarder house cleaning has been completed, the house can be listed for sale. It is like there was never even a hoarding problem!
Hoarding Cleaning Services
If you are looking around, there are many hoarder cleanup companies that advertise on the internet for this exact service. Many of these companies use subcontractors, which often-times results in higher prices & lower quality of work.
If you are looking for a hoarding cleanup company, look for a locally owned junk removal service. Any sizable junk removal service has the capability to handle a hoarding clutter cleanup project. In addition, the best part is they can do it at a fraction of the cost.

January 22, 2021I was looking for someone to haul away some things from a home remodeling project. I called A Plus and within 10 minutes I received an email and was able to call the owner right away. He sent his crew out the next day and took care of my hauling needs with a great price. I cannot tell you how pleased I am at the prompt, courteous service I received from both the owner and the crew. I highly recommend them. Mary Gadomski

Sal was great to work with. I was so stressed about a large deck in the back of my house that was collapsing. Sal came right over and gave me a very fair price and two days later the job was done. And a really good job. He even hauled away a piece of junk for me at the last minute. I highly recommend this company and plan to use them again as the need arises

March 13, 2021I can't say enough about Sal. He was very patient, knowledgeable, and went out of his way to ensure my company was taken care of. I absolutely recommend anyone to use this company. They get in and out very quickly and offer a great price. They also stick to their word which is very rare now-a-days!

August 10, 2019Hard working guys got the job done in one day. I recently bought a foreclose property and have A+ Enterprises help do the clean up. Its a 3 bedroom house full of junk, and everything was gone at the end of the day. Image a house hoarders live in, 3 bedrooms, each with bed, dressers, night stand, TV and many other trash, you do not want to be in the room more than 1 minute. Kitchen full of dirty dishes, appliances and dining table with chairs. At the end of the day, whatever not bolted down was gone, including most of the nasty carpet. I will definitely use their service again. Great service and the hard working people.
