Addressing a Growing Need
 

Selling a home and moving are acutely stressful experiences, particularly for seniors and their families. Good Lines Homes recognizes these challenges and offers tailored solutions to meet the unique needs of homeowners.
 

• According to AARP, nearly 90% of seniors prefer to stay in their homes as they age, but physical, medical and financial challenges often make this impossible

• At the same time, according to a survey by Aging in Place, 62% of seniors report feeling overwhelmed by the complexity of selling their home, which often leaves seniors feel stuck and their families feeling stuck

• According to Caring.com, 47% of adult children feel overwhelmed when helping their parents downsize or sell their homes, as the process often brings a significant amount of both financial and emotional stress.

​

“There’s a lot of adult children who want to have their own lives and don’t want to deal with the significant amount of emotional and financial stress of helping their parents say goodbye to their homes…this service is a God send”
