When it is time to place a loved one into senior living, there are so many emotions that we go through. Stress, fear, and sadness are among the few.
I have run into many people that don’t know what to do with the house and all the “stuff” the loved one will no longer be using. You know you need to sell it, but first it needs to be cleaned out, then it needs some updating, then you need an agent that can list it, show it, and finally sell it a few months later.
The problem is, most families are in crises mode with more than a few things going on, and they end up struggling with the following:
1What items should we keep, what items can go with our loved one, and what do we do with the rest?
2When will I have the time (AND MONEY) to get the house updated a bit so it can be put on the market?
3We need the money from the house NOW in order to PAY for long term care. Waiting 2-3 months for the house to sell is not an option!
All of these questions and tasks can feel very overwhelming on top of all the other emotions and decisions you have to make during this time.
