The 5 Easy Steps at a Glance
STEP 1: Create a Plan
Create a housing plan that fits your current lifestyle and takes into consideration possible future care needs. This is where you will need to do your research. What housing options do you have? Consider your interests, financial situation, location of family and friends, and how you envision living life to the fullest. Choosing a place that aligns with your goals may take some time, but it’s worth the effort!
Step 2: Communicate with Family & Friends
Communicating your plans with others doesn’t mean you are asking them for permission or their opinion. But, it is beneficial to keep family and friends in the loop regarding you future housing plans. If you need or want their help later, they will be in a better position to provide it.
STEP 3: Surround Yourself with Professionals
Surrounding yourself with highly qualified professionals guarantees you will have the needed support necessary to simplify your relocation. You will likely need the services of a variety of people that are knowledgeable and skilled in downsizing moves. Getting to know them before you need them is a wise choice.
STEP 4: Deal with a House Full of Possessions
Dealing with a house full of possessions is often what creates the most overwhelm and dread in the downsizing process. It can lead to uncertainty of where to begin, reluctance to part with treasured possessions, or just the amount of physical strength and stamina it requires. This often creates a stumbling block. Good news! There are trained professionals who can help with this step. By focusing your attention primarily on what you need and/or want to take with you, you can easily navigate the downsizing process. Leave the rest for the pro’s to handle.
STEP 5: Celebrate Your New Lifestyle
Celebrating your new simplified lifestyle may sound like an easy step. The truth is, however, the overall impact downsizing has on a person is underestimated. During the hustle and bustle of the moving process, emotions can get postponed. It is just as important to take care of your emotional well-being as it is you physical well-being.
