For older adults & the families beside them
A new chapter.
A clearer path from home.
When a move to senior living brings questions about the house, the timing, and everything inside it, you don’t have to sort it all out at once.
I’m Rob Gintner. I help families explore home sale options and connect with practical resources, so the next step feels more manageable.
Let’s talk through your next step
A conversation at your pace. No obligation to sell.
Start with your choices
There’s more than one way to sell a home.
The right approach depends on the home, your timeline, and how much you want to take on. We can compare the work involved, the costs, and what each path may leave you with.
Prepare for the open market
Consider which repairs or updates may be worth making, then create a plan to market the home. Weigh the potential selling price against preparation costs and time.
Explore an as-is sale
Review selling without making repairs, including available private-buyer or cash offers. Compare the offer, fees, conditions, and closing timeline before deciding.
Explore moving before selling
If available, a program may help with the gap between moving and receiving sale proceeds. We can review eligibility, costs, and repayment terms alongside other options.
No approach guarantees a higher return or a specific closing date. Offers and programs depend on the property, provider, and current availability.
Look beyond the sale price
What could you walk away with?
A potential net proceeds estimate helps turn a headline price into a more useful planning number. We can compare sale paths using the same assumptions and show which costs still need to be confirmed.
That gives you and your family a clearer starting point for conversations about the move. There isn’t one perfect answer—there’s the answer that fits your situation.
An estimate, not a guaranteed amount. Final proceeds depend on the actual sale terms and confirmed expenses.
Make room for the timing
What if you need to move before the house sells?
Move-in costs can arrive before home sale proceeds do. Let’s map out the dates, the amount needed, and which options may fit before you commit.
Questions we can work through
- When do deposits, moving expenses, and housing payments come due?
- Could a different closing date help align the sale and move?
- Are there programs available to help bridge the gap, and what do they cost?
- What happens if the sale takes longer or brings less than expected?
Any equity advance or financing option requires a separate review of eligibility, fees, repayment, and risks with the provider. For tax, financial, legal, or benefits questions, include your own qualified adviser.
Help with the practical pieces
The move is about more than the house.
Deciding what to keep, finding help, and getting settled can feel like a second full-time job. I can help you identify resources and ask the right questions.
Sort & downsize
Explore help with sorting belongings, planning what fits in the new space, and choosing what to keep, give to family, donate, or sell.
Move & settle in
Connect with moving and organizing resources for packing, transportation, unpacking, and setting up the new home.
Handle what’s left
Review estate sale, contents-buyout, donation, cleanout, and home preparation options based on what remains.
Services, pricing, and availability vary by provider. You choose who to hire and approve their scope and costs directly.
One step at a time
You don’t need every answer to begin.
- Tell me what’s happening. We’ll start with your priorities and the timeline you know today.
- Put the choices side by side. We’ll look at the home, potential proceeds, and practical moving needs.
- Choose your next step. Take time to consider the options and include the people you trust.
A conversation, at your pace
Let’s make the next step feel clearer.
Whether you’re planning for yourself or helping someone you love, I’m happy to listen. You can start with a question, a timeline, or simply “we’re not sure where to begin.”
