Selling a Kindle in Cincinnati
Cincinnati sits on the Ohio River in a bowl of hills, with one of the largest collections of Italianate architecture in the country in a neighbourhood that has been extensively restored. It has several Fortune 500 headquarters and a long German-influenced brewing history.
The nineteenth-century housing stock brings genuinely old furniture onto the market, and corporate headquarters move staff on relocation cycles. Freeze-thaw is hard on anything stored in an unheated basement.
The city is built on steep hills above the river, so ask about steps and the approach rather than only which floor. The older neighbourhoods have narrow streets and limited parking.
The city is built on steep hills and many homes are up flights of steps. Ask about the approach rather than only the floor before agreeing to anything heavy.
Cincinnati, in Ohio, has around 310,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Columbus, Cleveland and Toledo are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
