They have had both their children while living in Stapleton, a six year old girl and four year old boy.  The Stapleton housing market has gone up and down during that seven years, and the Gills haven\u2019t been very concerned about the value of their Stapleton home until their recent appraisal in their attempt to refinance.\n<!--more-->\n\u201cWe were told that our property would no longer be classified as a residence,\u201d said Craig.  \u201cInstead it was being reclassified as a storage facility, specifically, a toy storage facility.\u201d  The Gill\u2019s home has been overrun with toys in the last six years, and they have not done the appropriate upkeep in regards to selling, donating, or throwing out the toys.  \u201cThey really did not leave me with much of a choice,\u201d said appraiser Mike Clark.\n\u201cWe knew that we had a lot of toys scattered around,\u201d says Jamie.  \u201cWe tried to put some in the garage and believed we were doing well enough at putting them in containers.  Apparently, it still wasn\u2019t up to code.\u201d  The Gills will not be allowed another appraisal for five years and hope to get things straightened out by then.  \u201cWe definitely had not planned to move,\u201d says Craig.  \u201cThis just made our refinancing efforts impossible.\u201d\nThe Gills unintentionally hurt the property value of their neighbors as well.  \u201cWe like the Gills, and we know this wasn\u2019t intentional,\u201d says neighbor Kelly Elmer.  \u201cThe reclassification hurt us as well, but we had our opportunities to talk to them and let them know what the appraiser did.  Life goes on.\u201d  For the Gills, it goes on, but it is time to make a plan to turn their storage facility back into a home.\n]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[96],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-2723","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-39","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2723","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2723"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2723\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2723"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2723"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2723"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
