Let’s Talk

Death & Real Estate

If the move is less than a couple years, moving your belongings into a local storage facility and placing your home with a property manager for longer term rental may be a good option.

Estate Planning

A major component to every good estate plan is designating what will happen to your real estate holdings.

Career Move

If the move is less than a couple years, moving your belongings into a local storage facility and placing your home with a property manager for longer term rental may be a good option.

Downsizing Your Home

If you think moving up in life means buying a bigger home, it’s time to set the record straight. Most American families have plenty of room to downsize their home without cramping their style.

Finances

For many, a home and/or mortgage obligation can represent an enormous financial, time, and emotional burden – but it can also represent a tremendous store of potential value.

Divorce & Real Estate

If you’ve landed up on this page you are either considering a divorce or are in the process of one and you want to know what to do with the house. The benefit of listing your home due to divorce is that both spouses usually get some money to help start over and give you both a clean break.

Empty Nester

Do you remember when you were younger, and you had dreams put on hold because of life and children? Maybe it was owning a cabin by the lake. Perhaps it was touring European castles. Or maybe even a pursuit of a secondary career for fun instead of necessity.

Health Changes

If you (or a loved one) find yourself facing long term or permanent health issues you may discover that your home is no longer ideal. It may be something as common as not wanting to navigate up and down multiple levels of stairs or bathrooms that are simply too cramped.

Growing Family

Congratulations! A growing family is a wonderful change to look forward too. And upgrading your living space is a common reaction to a family about to outgrow their current space.

Home Too Small

Finding your current living space a little cramped is a common reason to go looking for a new home. If you really love your home, you might first explore several other options.

Retirement & Real Estate

For many retirees, it’s the beginning of more traveling or spending more time with the kids and grandkids, which also means selling your home for retirement.

Marriage & Real Estate

Selling both homes is often the best option when merging families that include children; it prevents one set of kids from feeling like their space has been invaded by another group of kids who feel like the invaders.

Remodel or Move?

When you find that your home is no longer a perfect fit it seems natural to start making small improvements. It often starts innocently enough. New paint for this room, new flooring for that room, and the next thing you know you’re back at the home improvement store staring down a series of much larger projects.
