We are hosting another FREE downsizing seminar on June 30th at 11:30AM in Downtown Aiken, at the beautiful, historic Willcox Hotel.
We will provide lunch and we will also present information about how to talk to your family about wanting to downsize. We will discuss what that conversation might entail and how this information can help with those hard conversations. This seminar is for everybody, including those who are adult children that have a parent or other family member that you know may need your help at some point. The information we will provide will help you with tips on how to get that conversation started.
We want to provide you with all the helpful tools and information that can help you when the time comes to make it a smoother transition for everybody involved. This doesn’t mean you’re planning for this to happen this year, or next year, or the following year, but it gives you those tools to start thinking about it now.
In a lot of families, including mine, the adult siblings are talking about these things, but we aren’t discussing them with Mom & Dad, and we really DO need to be including them in these conversations. Parents and adult children, together, should be having these conversations so everyone is on the same page.
I don’t know of any parents that want their kids to make decisions for them without having some idea of what their parents want. There are certain questions that should be asked and known, including, “How long do you want to stay in your house, Mom?” or “What extent do we want to go through to keep you in the house?” And also, “Do we need to do things to the house to prepare it so you can stay here for as long as you want?” And we have the tools that can help you with those topics.
We will also have one of our sponsors there to give information about downsizing and how they can help you through that process. It’s a great resource to have whether you need it now or sometime in the future.
Make your reservations NOW! Space is limited and we need a head count so can provide everybody with lunch. We look forward to connecting with you, and hope to see you there!
