Seniors’ Downsizing Program
My downsizing program offers a complete transition package for seniors. I have a great deal of experience working with seniors and understand that moving from a family home to a retirement residence, nursing home or condominium is a stressful event. I will provide the services required to make the transition process seamless. The following services will be included in the normal cost of listing and selling your home:
1. Preparing the home to be sold on the market
In order for a house to fetch top market value it must be prepared to go on the market. I will coordinate the entire process of having the house prepared to go on the market including de-cluttering, cleaning and staging. I will cover the cost of cleaning and de-cluttering in many situations. I will cover the cost of a consultation with a professional stager.
2. Listing the home for sale on the MLS
After the home is prepared for sale – the property will be listed on the MLS. I will take care of all the details to make the transaction go smoothly.
3. Moving
I will coordinate the move which is often one of the most daunting tasks in the downsizing process. I will ensure belongings are moved by professionals to the new residence. I will also assist with the task of dealing with items a client wishes to sell by having them picked up by a charitable organization or consignment shop. I can also offer the option of coordinating a contents sale with a professional estate sale company.
4. I will pay for a Handyman
I will pay for the services of a handyman for 4 hours to ensure the client is set up in their new home. The handyman can hang pictures, assemble furniture, install shelves and do the small tasks that are necessary when you move into a new place.
5. I will take care of all of the details – rest assured
I will ensure that the little details of coordinating the transition will be taken care of by our team. I will take care of delivering and picking up documents, scheduling work crews and arranging transportation for your loved one on move day.
