Prepping for the Real Estate Market

Real Estate Prepping

Let us put a little work into your home, so you can get a lot more out of it. Listing your home on the competitive real estate market is all about appearances. Seniors Moving Smarter can help give your home a better first impression.

Preparing the home for the market
We will clean, declutter and prep your home so that it is ready for the real estate market while making sure you are comfortable throughout the process. We also can assist with referrals and overseeing of contractors for needed repairs or updates.

Staging
We prepare your home with partial or full interior home staging to make your home memorable, helping to sell your home faster and perhaps get a better price.

Not Ready To Move Right Now?
We can help de-clutter your home to reduce the risk of falls and make moving much easier when the time comes. Without the time pressure of a move date, you can make better decisions about your household belongings.

We begin every process with a friendly in-home consultation so that you can get a feel for our team and how we work. We look forward to speaking with you and your family about your goals and unique needs. Contact us for a FREE consultation today at (616) 855-6548 !

"Superlatives often become eyebrow raisers. This group is even better than that! Liz took time with my clients who were stressed about the move (who isn't?). She answered every question calmly, professionally, and definitely spoke from experience. The preparation was a big part of the success of the move as Liz took the time to visit their new place, then knowing their space helped them decide what to take........"

"Once again Liz and her Seniors Moving Smarter crew have come through for me. After providing great help with my move four years ago they delivered to my door ten homemade cloth masks so that my family and I could properly protect ourselves and others when we venture out for necessary food and medical supplies. Thanks a million gals!"

"The entire team helped us prepare our home for sale by assisting in removal of the accumulation of 40 years of family living. They did a great job. The move was expedited by the professional assistance with packing and unpacking to help us settle in to our new home. Great job by the entire team."

"You made 2019 so great for me and mom. Thank you for stepping in at the perfect time. This is the new key to the front door. I had the locks changed. You will need it when we finish clearing the house. Here’s my wish that 2020 brings you and your family everything you hope for."

"Thank you so much for all of the support you have given to our Kindred Hospice teams. We are all so grateful for the extra effort taken to make the face masks. Without your help, many of our team members – nurses, aides, social workers, chaplains, would be at risk. Words seem so insignificant, but they are from the heart. Thank you."

"Thanks so much. Everything was great. Your idea to keep things familiar and the way the room was set up was perfect. After getting Dad to Fulton Manor and sitting for about twenty minutes, he made a comment that he thought he was going to move that day. Everything was so familiar that he didn’t even realize he was already moved. The items shipped to Virginia went so fast that the boxes were already on the porch when we got home late Friday night. You did a great job four and a half years ago and you did a great job this time as well. Thank you."

"Can't say enough great things about Seniors Moving Smarter! My parents were moved today from their condominium home of 26 years to a senior community "apartment". From the team of "packers" who arrived yesterday to begin the process to the team of movers who arrived today to load the truck, everyone was friendly, helpful and anticipated many of my parents needs before they even knew what it was they needed. A+++ I would recommend Seniors Moving Smarter to anyone moving their elderly parents."

"As the Director of Operations for a local home care agency I continually look for like minded professionals who are passionate about providing exceptional service to seniors. I have been thoroughly impressed with the professionalism and thoughtful consideration Seniors Moving Smarter has integrated in their business model. They have thought through and manage each detail of the delicate transition a senior must face as they depart from their home and transition to a new one. I was especially impressed to learn about their pre-move downsizing and space planning services. They are passionate about what they do and it shows. I extend my highest recommendations to them every opportunity I get."
