Hot Commodity…Baby Boomer Homes!

May 13, 2024

Thinking of downsizing? Chances are high someone is on the hunt for a home like yours!

Did you know Baby Boomers own 28% of large homes (despite being empty nesters) while Millennials with children own only 14% of those types of homes?

If you’re considering downsizing, this could be golden news for you. I would love to talk to you about your plans. In the meantime, here are some downsizing tips:

  • Utilize digital storage – scan and save your documents, photos, and other sentimental items to save physical space. Invest in external hard drives or cloud storage (like Google Drive or DropBox) to store digital files securely. And if you’re not sure how to do it yourself, services like LegacyBox or EverPresent can help.
  • Trade the oversized furniture for slim and multi-functional – Sofa beds, folding tables, and modular storage solutions will help you set up some multi-purpose room, like a den that doubles as a guest room
  • Toss the kitchen “fluff.” Do you really need a breakfast sandwich maker, a cake-pop maker, two Instant Pots, and a backup air fryer? Take a no-nonsense look at your gadgets and appliances, and only keep the ones you use most.

Remember, downsizing isn’t just about letting go of possessions; it’s about gaining freedom and peace of mind.

Whether you’re still thinking about it, just starting to downsize, or ready to roll, we can help! Check out the list of our amazing agents to help you in your next steps.

Think about it: a closed fist limits what you can hold and what you can give. An open hand? It’s an invitation for abundance, connection, and the chance to serve.

Not all glow ups are created equal! ✨
Sometimes it’s a little fresh paint and some decluttering.
Other times… it’s a full-on transformation like SE Alder.

This home got the ultimate makeover—inside and out—with the help of the talented team at @opaldesigngroup and @4mconstruction. From a major overhaul to stunning design details, it’s proof that smart updates = big ROI.

What do you think of the those before and afters? Quite the GLOW UP! ✨
