downsizers guide
You’re overwhelmed with all the stuff in your house, and you don’t know where to begin. You’ve tried to declutter, but you just end up going down memory lane with every item and making no progress. You couldn’t even imagine getting through the entire house.
Our team of dedicated specialists will support you every step of the way. They will work with you to help pair down your belongings, while also giving you the confidence to let go of items that aren’t serving you anymore.
YOUR HOME HAS FEATURES THAT NO LONGER FIT YOUR LIFESTYLE
There was a time when your kids were building blanket forts in all the bedrooms, there were wait-lines for the bathrooms, and your teens were tussling over the remote in the tv room. Your spacious home may have felt too small to contain the chaos.
These days most of the bedrooms are now rarely-opened or used for storage. You may find you are now only using a handful of rooms in your house and are tired of cleaning a large home.
MAINTENANCE IS BECOMING OVERWHELMING
The cost and physical activity required to maintain your property have become intimidating. Stairs, high-maintenance landscaping, shovelling snow, or mowing the lawn are becoming increasingly difficult.
YOU WOULD LIKE TO ENJOY A NEW LIFESTYLE
There were a lot of benefits to living in a large home, especially when you had kids. But now you find yourself wanting to have everything at your fingertips and make your lifestyle a lot easier.
Condo living is a great way to ensure that everything is at your doorstep. A concierge, great amenities steps from your suite and even underground parking.
YOU ENVISION YOURSELF TRAVELING THE WORLD
Whether you want to do a wine tour across Europe, explore tropical places or just spend a few weeks at the cottage, you're finally free to live on your own schedule.
Unfortunately, houses can sometimes get in the way. You have to make sure everything is set, and you may even need to get someone to house-sit for you.
This isn't a problem when you have a condo, where you can just lock your door and leave.
ONCE YOU MOVED FROM YOUR CURRENT HOME INTO YOUR NEW HOME YOU WILL ENJOY
- Free time you have now that you’re living a maintenance-free lifestyle.
New experiences living in a condo community.
Have easy access to amenities such as a concierge, gym, pool, party room and even guest suites.
- Travel to places you have always wanted to go.
- You may also be able to live even closer to your family
