Buying or selling a home is a big moment—one that marks the start of a new chapter. But it’s rarely the only move you’ll ever make. Life changes, needs shift, and eventually, that “perfect” home might not be the perfect fit anymore.
That’s where having a long-term real estate partner makes all the difference.
Whether you’ve recently retired or your last baby bird has just left the nest, you may be wondering if it’s time to downsize. With vacant bedrooms and a backyard that no longer serves as a playground, many homeowners in the 55+ crowd begin to wonder if they should move somewhere smaller — perhaps to a place more physically and financially manageable. But not all seniors see unused space as wasted space, and in fact, see advantages to staying in the family home well into their golden years.
When you decide it’s time to buy your first home, there’s a lot on the line. Are you ready for the responsibility? Will you be okay financially? Should you look at houses or condos? What if you end up not liking the house you choose? These and other concerns can make what should be an exciting time in life a source of worry and stress.
