With Understanding & Efficiency
The reality of moving from a larger living space to a smaller one is challenging and can be overwhelming. Moving from a family home of 30, 40 or 50 years is a difficult task. We have been assisting our clients and helping to downsize and make good decisions for many years. We have proven strategies to maximize space in a useful and efficient way while maintaining the beauty and important personal touches to make sure the new space is a home.
"We have lived in our home for 42 years where we raised our 3 children. We have lived, laughed and cried with our family and friends in our wonderful home.
Our greatest joys and memories have happened within these walls. Our children now have families of their own, busy lives and careers. We spend most of our family time at their homes now and find ourselves busy with an active retirement. Our home is now too big for just us two and it’s taking up more of our time than we would like.
The thought of moving into a smaller space is overwhelming. We have procrastinated for too long already because we don’t know where to start! We have items we would like to give to our children, grandchildren, friends and charities and things we just don’t know what to do with! There are many repairs that would need to be done in our home before we could even consider selling it."
We Move Everybody
Whether you are downsizing, entering a retirement residence, or relocating out of the city to be with family – no job is too big or too small. We can assist your process in whatever way you choose, within the timelines you require.
Let us manage all the details, leaving you the peace of mind in knowing that your upcoming move can be easier than you think!
"My mother recently passed away, and my 96-year-old father’s health is declining rapidly. I spend much more time with him now, as he is no longer able to live independently. It’s a difficult time. There is a room ready for him in a personal care home, and I need to move him in as soon as possible. The home is very nice, but the space for his personal belonging is very limited. I am his Power of Attorney and Executor, but I would rather be spending precious quality time with my Dad than packing and moving his belongings.
During the initial free consultation process, we will examine your situation and discuss your options. We will suggest how you can best organize and move to the place that’s right for you or your loved one.
Moving can be an extremely stressful time, especially for older people with limited mobility and possibly other health issues. Let us help you with your move, so you can concentrate on what’s really important, such as your own health or that of a loved one."
We’re here to help
We can handle estate matters by organizing and delivering selected items to family, and coordinating the sale and distribution of unwanted items. Working with the executor or attorney and family, we can provide valuable information and resources to those responsible for the estate. We can assist in preparing the home for the real estate market by coordinating any necessary repairs or renovations.
"My Father recently passed away. My brother and I have been back in Winnipeg ever since we learned that his health was rapidly declining. We are currently arranging his funeral and are totally at a loss as to how we’ll take care of his property and home. It is impossible for either one of us to remain in the city to deal with the estate matters as we both have families and jobs to return to. There are some items he has gifted in his will, but everything else will need to be sold or given away.
