Of course one of the biggest hassles about moving is the arduous labor of moving all those amazing furnishings yourself, or the added expense of paying a moving company to do all the work.

But there is a third option, such as selling your house furnished. According to realtor.com, there’s good and bad associated with selling a furnished home.
