Moving for a Senior Citizen can be a challenging event. We can organize the move and help get the house on the market as soon as possible.
One of the more challenging scenarios a realtor encounters is the older seller who has been in their house 30, 40 or even 50 years. When taking on a listing of a senior home you may find any or all of the following:
- A tired house showing signs of deferred maintenance
- Spaces that are dark with dated furnishings
- A home that's in need of a good cleaning
- One too cluttered to even consider showing
- The older client too frail, confused or alone and may need assistance.
We are a move management company that can help the seller address obstacles of fear of the future and resistance to change. With a Move Manager as an advocate seniors and their family members have a chance to openly address concerns and learn what level of help is available. Smooth Transitions can help by:
- Helping the older seller make the choices and start preparing for the move.
- Speed up the decluttering process
- Move out the dated furnishings and return rooms to their core use
- Provide the physical & emotional assistance needed to navigate the complexities of moving.
