05. Senior Real Estate: Easing the Emotional Journey of Buying and Selling as a Senior Part 2

This week’s episode on How to Help Mom is a continuation of our discussion with Sara Ston, our realtor, the owner of How to Help Mom and a certified Senior Real Estate agent. The conversation continues with the discussion about the right facility for your client, reverse mortgages, the differences between assisted and independent living, helping the seniors understand the cost and benefit of house selling and should you update the house before selling. Hear more about Senior Real Estate on this second part episode with Sara Ston.

 

“You know, if I were having conversations with my parents, I would be more apt to be more aggressive about the advice but I'm pretty good at saying here's what your options are, here's where everybody's at, and then helping them kind of find that conversation on their own. So we work pretty closely with our placement specialists to work to get like so. Me, my placement specialists, my estate sale companies, my organizers, my movers we all organize it on a timeline together. And that's really what How to Help Mom is for, is get everybody on the system.”
