Downsizing for Empty Nesters
Getting adjusted to an empty nest after years of creating a home with your spouse and children can be a challenge. Walking past empty bedrooms everyday may have you feeling down and thinking about downsizing your home.
Before you make that decision, ask yourself these questions:
How much stuff do you have in your current home and where will you put it?
Before you move into a smaller space, take a look around. How much stuff do you have in your current home? What things will you take with you and what will you throw away or sell? Maybe you aren’t ready to part with your belongings just yet, so you may want to consider how much it will cost for a storage unit.
Is there something else that you can do with your extra rooms?
Are you working remotely and in need of a home office? Maybe you’ve always wanted a small home gym. Before you take the leap and move, think of the ways that you can potentially repurpose the empty bedrooms in your home. Creating new dedicated spaces can change up the entire feel of your home.
Could you rent out the extra space in your home?
Downsizing is a big decision. As you think about what options would be best for you, is renting the extra space in your home an option? Steve Schappert can make that process safe and easy. The extra money that you make in rent can be put towards your next home if you do choose to move in the future.
Whatever in this World that I Can Do For You, I Will.
