Reviewing your current living situation: 50+ Housing

For many senior home owners over the age of 50, the thought of living in the home forever where they have raised their families is a common dream. Unfortunately, the family home generally turns into a burden instead of a blessing as seniors start to struggle to maintain the property, both physically and financially. Before that becomes a reality, it is beneficial to begin planning in the pursuit of a better future for yourself and for your partner.

Selling the family home?

The other side of the equation of buying a home is selling a home, which can be a challenging task especially when there are strong emotional ties to the property. Through the SRES® designation, Kristy’s specialization in senior needs can soothe the transition by understanding your reasons for selling the home and then explore other relevant options. Some of these options may include keeping your current home with modification or looking for another property entirely.

Pricing and marketing strategies

Selling your home quickly while fetching for the highest possible price the market is willing to offer can be a tricky business. This is where a SRES® can add value by providing useful insights on the current market. Kristy will develop a pricing and marketing strategy by analyzing your property against other comparables.

Transition to a new city

With her vast knowledge and network, Kristy can facilitate the transition into your new neighbourhood or refer you to other designees to locate properties or services in the new city.
