ELDERLY SENIORS
We are uniquely qualified to help seniors and their families deal with important lifestyle changes. Our SRES (Senior Real Estate Services) designation enables us to approach difficult situations with knowledge and compassion. We understand that failing health, finances and isolation create stress for families. Out-of-the-area adult children often contact us about their concerns for an elderly parent.
When the decision is made to sell the home, leave the rest to us. Pack personal items and family heirlooms and begin a new adventure! We will prepare the home for showings by hiring and supervising repairs, painting, lawn/pool care, carpet cleaning, etc. We can even arrange for an estate sale if desired or donate any personal household items to your favorite charity.
Moving arrangements are a breeze with RE/MAX. For local moves, you may use our FREE moving truck! For long distance moves we call the RE/MAX Moving Coach who is affiliated with national movers and guarantees fair bids and reliable service.
Our past out-of-state clients have especially appreciated that we are able to help their parent here in Lee County. No matter the circumstances, we can help you and your family with all your real estate needs, and we can connect you with qualified and caring senior service professionals.
We understand all of this can be quite overwhelming, we can help you do it all! To talk with us personally about your family’s situation, Contact Bill & Ricki..
In addition to our real estate services, our Referral Network of Senior Service Providers helps people to make informed decisions. We can refer you to an Elder Law attorney who can explain your options and help with asset planning.
Our seniors don’t ever want to give up their homes! Our experts can explain how a reverse mortgage provides income and allows seniors to remain in their homes. Plus, there are many in-home services that provide bathing, cooking, shopping and transportation to doctor appointments. Some of these services are FREE because they are provided by screened volunteers through Faith In Action, a United Way partner.
Retirement Communities & Assisted Living Facilities
Change is never easy, but it CAN BE a good thing when it improves your health and well-being. Lee County has many wonderful alternative living situations. We can provide information and tours of local assisted living facilities (ALFs). Many of our lovely ALFs provide continuum care, beginning with independent living apartments. As needs warrant, assisted care and nursing care are also on site. These communities offer a menu of services and are structured to match individuals’ needs. Some require an “entrance fee” while others are based on monthly rent.
