What do i do with my parent's belongings when they die?

Asked by mediazis over 2 years ago, 4 answers.

my parents are getting really old and they have lots of stuff in their new home. now alot of it i like and have fond memories of like pictures and things that are representative of their love and their children (me,etc). also some of it is pretty...

expensive stuff as well that of course could be auctioned. the point is this is so much anxiety to deal with. even if i asked them i don't think it would override the anxiety of whether i should keep it (even in storage) as i travel alot and plant to travel more when they pass away. i am sure somebody has been in this boat before.

thanks

Well my parents are getting older to and what I plan to do is use some of the expensive stuff to pay anything off of theirs and split the stuff with my family and anything that my kids might want ill keep and then maybe sell some of it.

I've been there and done that. What u should do is go ahead and choose a few things that u wish 2 keep for sentimental reasons and pictures u would like to have. Allow any siblings to do the same and anything u decide not to keep u may find someone who can use it or find a chairity u can donate to. I recommend ur local rescue mission for any clothing and possibly furniture because these items will go to people that really need them.

Keep the things that matter, sell or give away the things that don't. If you really want to keep some things and have no room for them, put them in storage or see if a good friend will allow them in their attic or basement while you travel. Problem solved.
