Retirement is different for everyone and depending on several factors, it can have several stages. Valerie assists individuals and couples who are relocating and transitioning from one home to another for some of the following reasons:

​

For example:

​

  • Relocating out of the area/state/country

  • Transitioning to an assisted living facility 

  • Locating to senior housing communities 

  • Consolidating homes/rentals

DIVORCE / FINANCIAL HARDSHIP

The process of a divorce or separation affects each spouse and family differently. Valerie works equally with both parties to ensure a smooth and successful transition for their families. She has assisted couples in some of following situations:

​

For example:

​

  • Financial difficulties (such as bankruptcy, foreclosure)

  • Short sales with/without trustee sale dates; our sub-specialty

Learn who we are, first. Then choose the experience you want on your side.

 

We are highly skilled and sophisticated professionals with experience working in challenging and highly complex transactions, both emotionally and transactionally. Buyers and sellers benefit greatly from our experience and network of highly skilled professionals, but we encourage you to learn who we are, what we know, and how we can help so you can decide if we are the ideal fit.
