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.

Top notch. I called and spoke with a Guy named Sal. Very friendly and excellent Customer Service, 100%. I was set up in minutes. The pricing was great. Delivered it next day. When it was time for pick up I advised that I would be working and not able to hear the door so just knock hard. I went out on my Lunch break wondering what the heck? And the Dumpster was gone. Great service. Great Price. I called about 6 Dumpster Rental places and of all of them, A+ Was definitely the best and Props to Sal. Great Service. Truly is A+

June 10, 2020Hard 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.

June 10, 2020Very promote service. They came exactly on time for the appointment and I did not have to left a finger. I lost the invoice for the services and received a quick response and delivery for that as well. If you looking for reasonable priced service with a smile A+ is the way to go. Also to add I have used multiple junk companies and they by far are the best.

Sal really helped us out. We needed some junk removed right away and he got there within a couple of hours, was very professional and polite and did not charge an arm and a leg. He has a customer for life in us now!

January 15, 2020These guys are awesome! They came here when promised, were really nice and friendly, and they did what they were supposed to do in a timely fashion. The price quoted was changed because I had more “stuff” to get rid of. However, they quoted the difference before getting the rest of the things out and we agreed. I will certainly call them next time. Thanks, A+!

August 10, 2019The 3 man crew did a fantastic job in clearing out and disposing of several large and small items that still remained after a 2 day estate sale. Items removed included beds and mattresses, 3 couches, bedroom chest of drawers, old refrigerator and electric stove, computer desk, old and very heavy television, several tools plus much more.Very courteous workers and owner was great to work with. Highly recommend and you won’t be disappointed.
