Selling a cat tree in Winston-Salem
Winston-Salem was built on tobacco and textiles and has reinvented itself around medicine and research, with a restored eighteenth-century Moravian settlement preserved within the city. It has several universities and a substantial arts presence.
Universities and a medical centre clear housing on academic and residency cycles. Tobacco and textile decline left equipment in private hands, and the old district brings genuinely old furniture onto the market.
On old furniture, check the joints and the feet rather than the surface. Much of what circulates here is genuinely old, and humidity works on glued joints from the bottom up.
Winston-Salem, in North Carolina, has around 250,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Charlotte, Raleigh and Greensboro are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
