Is there any way to sell my house that doesn’t involve hiding all my kids’ things indefinitely?

So I’m in the process of listing my house. I live just outside a historic district in Tampa, but my house was built in 1918. It’s a fantastic house and I love it a lot, but we need more space and are buying a house where we can live with more extended family.

We haven’t actually listed the house yet, and the reason is that we are stressed about “staging.” Tbh it would be fine if it were just my partner and me. We would just throw everything in storage and leave whenever anyone was touring it. But we have a four year old and a newborn. There’s tons of toys and baby stuff everywhere, and I can’t think of a way we could store those for the whole time we would have it listed. It just doesn’t feel fair to my kids, or practical for us.

My question is: how do people do this? Is there any way to do this that doesn’t disrupt my children’s lives? How much “staging” actually needs to be done?

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
