More than one moving part
The sale, the next place and the life between them.
Downsizing becomes easier to think about when the emotional, practical and financial parts are named separately.
02
The dates affect real life.
Sale timing, purchase conditions, settlement and the physical move need to be considered together, not as separate calendar entries.
03
The proceeds fund what comes next.
The fee, campaign costs, lending position and settlement outcome should be clear enough to plan around before you commit.

How the sale moves
A calmer sequence, with the decisions in the open.
Start with a conversation. Nothing goes live until the strategy, fee and responsibilities make sense to you.

Talk through the move.
We start with the home, the timing and what you need from the sale. No listing agreement is required for that first conversation.
