Is your larger estate no longer suited for you lifestyle? Are there now rooms in your home that you don’t even use? Perhaps your children are now out of the house and you rarely use their prior bedrooms or find it difficult walking up and down to the basement? Is constant cleaning, maintenance and lawn upkeep taking time away from time that could be spent relaxing, or enjoying family and friends? Would you love to travel more, but find it difficult to leave for any amount of time due to the ongoing upkeep that needs to be done on a daily or weekly basis? Do you feel tied down to the financial burden for your large estate?
“Downsizing is a major decision, influenced by unique financial and emotional factors. De-cluttering a large home is no easy feat. Selling your house, finding a new one and moving your belongings adds further complexity. Our team of professionals are here to help!”
At The Carnahan Group, we understand the emotion that goes into selling a large estate including:
Guilt from family: Your adult children might make you feel guilty for leaving the place that holds their childhood memories. But never let your grown-and-gone kids dictate your living situation! Besides, think of how much fun the grand-kids will have making new memories when they squeeze into your smaller, cozier house for the holidays.
Afraid of change: Are you paralyzed by all the unknowns that come with downsizing your home? Or maybe you feel overwhelmed by all the work your home needs before it goes on the market. We get it. But when you get a clear plan together, you’ll calm your fears (more on that later).
Embarrassed you can’t keep up with the Joneses: Moving to a smaller home might be a humbling experience—especially if your friends have large houses and won’t understand your decision. But are those really the kind of "friends" you want? Me neither. Besides, they’re probably just as stuck in that fake-rich life. Who knows, maybe when you’re free to live like no one else, you will inspire them to follow.
YOU’RE INVITED: Real estate experts from The Carnahan Group at ReeceNichols, and other local industry experts such as, an estate consignment company and home financing consultant from a local bank will discuss the best practices when downsizing, including planning all elements of a move, organizing and sorting what to take, sale and/or give away, and lending options.
Refreshments provided and a chance to win a door prize! (Must be in attendance to win door prize)
The seminar will take place:
Saturday, November 13, from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m.
