Stay or Move? 🤔 5 Questions to Help Boomers and Seniors Decide 🏡
Deciding to downsize or move to a seniors community can be overwhelming. If you’re considering this move and struggling with the decision, here are five helpful questions to ask yourself:
- “What is your practical reason for downsizing?”
- Consider what you’ll gain by moving. Is it less maintenance, a smaller space that’s easier to manage, or proximity to amenities and services? 🛠️🚶♂️🏠
- “What are your emotional reasons for downsizing?”
- Think about how you’ll feel living in a new place. Will you feel safer, less isolated, less stressed (better access to healthcare), or happier (more social opportunities)? 😊🏥💖
- “What type of new home can you afford?”
- Determine how much you’ll get from selling your current home and the cost of a new place. This will give you a price range to comfortably shop within and an idea of your future expenses. 💲🏦
- “In what ways will your lifestyle be better in a seniors community?”
- Envision your life in a new home. Easier to do the travelling you want to do. Will you spend more time enjoying activities, socializing with peers, or relaxing without the burden of home maintenance? 🌅🎉
- “What else do you need to know before you decide to move?”
- Address any unanswered questions about the moving process. If there’s anything unclear, don’t hesitate to ask me! 🤔❓
