For Seniors and Downsizers

Dynamic, resourceful, warmly enthusiastic, ethical, strong negotiator and hard-working!

As an expert in Senior Downsizing who holds a SRES (Seniors Real Estate Specialist) designation, I have a deep understanding of the unique challenges and consideration that come with this process. Whether it’s helping seniors transition from a larger home to a smaller living space or navigating the emotional and logistical aspects of a move, I am here to support and guide you through the entire process. With compassion, expertise, and a focus on your special needs and goals, I strive to make the transition as stress free and seamless as possible.

Today’s busy lifestyle of adult children often requires Senior parents to handle the task of moving on their own, especially if the family lives out of the area.

Written by ~Laura Jensen
My parents decided to sell their home of 40 years in Bellevue, WA and move to Colorado where my husband and I live. Mom and Dad (both around 85 years old) had been thinking about selling their home for awhile, and had researched the REALTORS® in their area. They learned of Linda Nelson from one of their neighbors who said she was knowledgeable about the home market, but she also specialized in helping Senior homeowners through the entire sale process. In addition, Linda helped with services such as packing and moving companies. My brother and I met with Linda, and we all agreed that she was the perfect choice, especially in our absence.

During the short one week period that the house was for sale, Linda was very protective of my elderly parents, and was very sensitive to the stress that open houses and fielding the various offers could have on them. She kept everything as simple and uncomplicated as possible. She also made sure that my brother and I were involved in every step of the process, and kept us informed daily via emails, texts and phone calls. Very important.

My parents arrived in Lakewood, CO, and, thanks to Linda and all of her hard work and excellent attention to details, the house sale and subsequent move went very smoothly. Linda continues to check in with us from time to time. It's obvious she really cares about her clients and their families and wants to make sure that the entire process of selling and moving is a good experience for all involved. It's never easy to make a move like this, but because of Linda’s expertise and kindness towards our family, it went better than we could have ever expected.
