If you think you may be selling your home in the coming months,  let's be prepared!   When I work with my "senior" clients, we take it a step at a time to make sure everything goes smoothly.  Sometimes when you haven't listed and/or sold a home in a long time, there are lots of questions you may have....and I have absolutely no objections whatsoever about answering each and every one of those questions.  It can be a smooth and easy "transition" so I don't want you to be worried or concerned about anything....I'll help you.   One of the first things I happened to think of today to mention,  is that IF you think you'll be selling in the coming months and IF your home is in a Living Trust,  one of the first things we will be doing is taking a copy of your Trust to the title company so they can verify who has authorization to actually sell the property.  That applies to whether you're the actual seller and Trustee....OR.....the Successor Trustee of a parent who may have passed away or is incapacitated.
But that's a good "first step".....
