I just want to thank everyone for your kind words and recommendations. It is indeed a pleasure to serve you and I thank you for joining Rochester's future leader in sales and service. I wanted to share with you a recent recommendation from a senior citizen couple I am working with:
"Carmen Lonardo has helped us tremendously. As senior citizens, with lots of questions, Carmen is patient and insightful. We feel that Carmen always strives to deliver better than expected results, as he has connected us with third-party resources to deliver advice, guidance and a new kitchen! Carmen is a trustworthy, personable, and diligent realtor. His strong work ethic coupled with his attention to detail will sell our home quickly and for a great price. Thank you, Carmen for taking us under your wing and making this a very smooth process." Ray and Beverly P.
With this recommendation in mind, I recently posted an article on Facebook regarding Seniors Looking to Downsize . I thought it would be appropriate to say a few words on this subject.
Ray and Bev are in their 80's but are still very active and social. The apartment they will be going to will have activities, outings and lots of people! Phoebe Chongchua says in her article,"Specific items that tend to appeal to this group are buildings with doormen and onsite maintenance staff, alternate transportation such as a senior shuttle or bus stop nearby."
These types of amenities will allow them to keep their freedom and still be able to be safe.
Even though Bev and Ray are excited about downsizing, it is also a trying time. So, when looking for senior housing for your family or friends, do your research. A great article to start with is Cutting Your Stuff. Not only is selling your home a large financial decision, it can be a huge sense of loss.
I would be happy to answer any additional questions regarding selling your senior citizen's home. And provide additional references if needed!
Thank you again!
