WE'RE CLEAR

Our Mission. Our Vision.

We’re here to support families through one of the most difficult transitions in the senior care journey—figuring out what to do with a loved one’s house when care can’t wait. We offer thoughtful home-selling solutions, including a simpler, less stressful option: purchasing homes directly, in as-is condition, with no need for repairs, clean-outs, or realtor fees. Closings happen in weeks, not months, so care can begin without delay.
 
But we don’t do this alone. We have a trusted network of senior-focused professionals across the nation—senior living communities, placement advisors, elder law attorneys, downsizing experts, and in-home care providers—all working together to lighten the load for families with compassion, dignity, and respect.
 
If you’re walking this path, you don’t have to do it alone. We’re here to help however we can.

Frequently Asked Questions

We offer seniors and their families a unique financial and emotional bridge when it’s time to move into a senior living community/plan for funeral costs. By offering home-selling options, including an as-is cash-offer option, we can front equity interest-free, allowing you to make the move/get the support you need on your timeline.

We curate options tailored to your needs, including an option that avoids charging commissions or fees. We’re not just buyers—we’re experienced in both real estate and senior care transitions. We don’t treat this like a simple transaction. We act more like case managers, offering a fully supported process that honors your personal needs, emotions and timing.

If you (or a loved one) needs to move into more supportive care (ie. Senior Living, Skilled Nursing, Simply Downsizing) before their house sells, we can advance the home’s equity, interest-free,  to secure the placement. That means they don’t have to wait for the house to close in order to access the funds they need to start care or make a move.

We bring years of experience in senior healthcare and transitions to senior living, so we understand the challenges families face. This company was built with intention—to remove barriers and make moves safer and smoother. When finances are a hurdle, our access to private money allows us to purchase the home and, when needed, advance money to cover immediate needs or services that support a successful transition.

Every situation is different, but we’ve helped families begin the transition in as little as 48–72 hours. Whether you need 2 months to sort and plan, or things feel urgent—we’ll meet you where you are.

We purchase homes in as-is condition. This means: No repairs. No updates. No showings. No commissions. This saves you time, money, and stress—so you can focus on what really matters.

We support a wide range of transitions—from urgent hospice moves, to downsizing due to safety concerns to helping manage a home left behind after a loved one passes. Whether you’re facing disrepair, hoarding, clutter or complicated timelines—we’ve been there, and we can help. Just check-out some of our Testimonials.

We have options that include a courtesy of the home being purchased “contents-included.” This means you don’t have to take the time or energy to sort through the decades of stuff. You can take what you want, leave what you don’t. We do this because you not only save time & money, but to help ease the emotional toll of such a big transition.

We are proudly certified through Mom’s House as Senior Transition Specialists. This means we’ve completed training specific to the emotional, financial, and logistical complexities of senior moves—and are committed to handling each case with integrity, care and respect.

We’re not a placement agency, but we do have a vast network of trusted local partners and resources. We’ll connect you to what you need—whether that’s a specific type of care, professional organizers, legal help or emotional support services.

A free consult. It’s low-pressure, friendly and completely focused on you. We’ll listen to your needs, explain how we can help, and offer suggestions for your unique path forward—even if it’s not through us. (Click here to book a consult.)

When we purchase the property for cash, we work in tandem with an investor partner to renovate the home and then re-sell. We have other options that include listing the property traditionally. Those options include a fee or commission. Regardless of how you work with us, we offer courtesy services at no additional cost, including case managing the process and navigating senior resources.
