The Truth about Downsizing: How Others Made It Happen

People say the thought of moving out of a home they have lived in for decades is often overwhelming. They allow fear and anxiety about the downsizing process to cause them to stay in a place or situation that no longer serves their needs.

Learn how other men, women, and couples just like you have overcome their fears and made the decision to downsize. Our panel of actual down-sizers will answer these questions and more:

  • What were the challenges you faced when downsizing?
  • What are the pros and cons in your experience?
  • How did you manage the details of such a move?
  • What would you do differently if you had to do it again?

The Truth about Staying in Control: Communicating with Adult Children

Are you prepared for the next evolution in your relationship with your adult children? Relationships evolve and change just like people, but navigating those changes aren’t always easy. Complex family dynamics, blended families, and changing social norms impact both the choices we have made, may still need to make, and how we communicate them.

Join us for a candid conversation concerning communicating with adult children as you age.

Knowledgeable about the market

I helped my parents with the sale of their home.  The three of us had been attending their seminar series since they began!  We were always impressed with their knowledge and helpfulness to the Senior Community.  So, when it came time to sell, it was obvious to me they were the best choice.  They were very good at explaining the selling process, which I greatly appreciated.  Annette suggested a price that got us multiple offers within days of going on the market.  Unfortunately, that first buyer backed out; however, Annette was able to go back to another buyer and was successful at getting us back into contract and closed.  The team was timely, interactive, and knowledgeable about the market.

The Truth about Squeezing More Out of Life as We Age to 100

The most recent data indicates there are approximately 92,000 Centenarians living in the United States. This is up from 82,000 in 2016. While we may not “think” we will live this long, we certainly might. For some, this is exciting news, however for many, becoming a centenarian is not a rite of passage they ever considered. At this month’s seminar we will discuss the pro’s and con’s of living to be 100 or beyond, including money, housing, healthcare, purpose, and squeezing more out of whatever time we have no matter our age.

Referred by my sister’s realtor in Washington.

I decided to move out of the state to be near my family.  I was referred to the Junell Group by my sister’s realtor in Washington.  He looked up the Junell Group and was able to determine they had a lot of expertise in selling homes in Reno.  He couldn’t have chosen a better team for me.  I cannot thank Annette and the Junell Group enough for helping me sell my home.  It went so quickly and smoothly. I appreciate all the hard work the team did for me.

The Truth about Going from We to Me

Losing a lifelong partner who shared in life’s many responsibilities such as finances, home maintenance, cooking or arranging social activities can leave a giant void.

Inevitably, most of us must one day face the reality of going from “We” to “Me”.

This month we will look at what “We” can do to be better prepared and the resources and help available to those who have expectantly or unexpectedly become a “Me”.
