Help My Senior Parent Move

Support for you—and your parent—every step of the way.

At Mosaic Realty Group, we specialize in helping families support aging parents through thoughtful, well-timed moves. Our team includes agents with the SRES® designation—trained to guide seniors and their adult children through the unique challenges of downsizing with care, patience, and real-life expertise. Whether you're gently starting the conversation or actively preparing for a move, we’re here to walk alongside you—at your pace, and with no pressure.

For When the Next Step Feels Big

Helping a parent move isn’t just about selling a home—it’s about honoring a lifetime of decisions, navigating emotions, and balancing logistics that may be brand-new to you.

Whether you’re providing gentle support or fully managing the transition due to health, memory, or mobility changes—Mosaic is here to walk alongside you, with care and clarity.

We Understand This Can Be Complicated

There’s no single roadmap, but most families fall into one of two situations:

🟢 Support-Mode

You're helping from the side—offering guidance, attending showings, or helping your parent evaluate what’s next. They’re still making the final call, and you’re there to back them up.

🔵 Full-Responsibility Mode

You’re managing the process entirely—due to medical conditions, memory loss, or mobility challenges. That may include legal roles like Power of Attorney, managing finances, or coordinating from out of state.

We’re here for both. And we’ll meet your family exactly where you are.

How Long It Takes

Most families spend 2–5 years thinking about a move before taking action

Some wait 8–10 years, and later say they wish they’d started sooner

The best time to begin? As soon as the conversation comes up

Starting early gives you and your parent more flexibility, less stress, and time to make the right decision together.

Rightsizing

Too Much House

Most older adults reduce their living space by about 22%, often moving from a two-story to a one-story home—or into a layout where everything they need is on one level.
Why it matters:
Many seniors end up living only on the first floor because stairs become difficult to manage. When the upstairs goes unused, problems like leaks, smells, or maintenance issues can go unnoticed for weeks—especially if no one else lives in the home full-time.
