5. Paintings and drawings

If you have paintings and drawings in your home, please don’t throw them away; see if you have any chance of selling them. As you know, paintings have always been luxury items, which makes them some of the most expensive antiques that you can put on the market. For example, many cheap prints of paintings and drawings that were made in the 1970s became popular, and you can see them in the homes of many Americans. A print like that can sell for a few hundred bucks.

You might have some works of art by lesser-known artists in your home right now. And some of these works might have become popular today. Check to see if you can auction them or simply sell them. In this way, you can make a good sum of money. If you are lucky and you have a collectible painting or a rare one, there is a chance that you will make a fortune.

    Many people collect old records and go to Salvation Army store or the library’s annual book sale. When you donate your records you can deduct amount on your income tax if you use govt approved charity. The Salvation Army and Goodwill can tell you how much to deduct for each record.
