When a parent has to move, families often wonder
“What about the house?”
Denver RIGHTSIZING helps families figure that out.
If a parent needs to move to assisted living, memory care, or a smaller home, the house becomes the biggest decision.
Everyone seems to have different opinions and that can feel overwhelming. Often, the funds from selling their home become the primary way to pay for the best care and comfort in their new home.

Helping Denver Families Navigate the Hardest 90 Days
Denver RIGHTSIZING exists to help to help families navigate the overwhelming transition when a parent must move into a place that is the RIGHT SIZE as they age, whether it be to memory issues, emotional experiences, or any other health issue. I have experienced this recently with friends and family as a Realtor selling families homes as they move into a place more RIGHT for them. I came to realize how much clearer and calmer this process can be with the right plan and guidance. This site exists to give you that clarity and help you take the next step with confidence
At some point, nearly every family asks:
What happens to the house?
It’s deeper than just from a logistic standpoint because, for families, the home is more than a building - It’s decades of memories, milestones, and meaning.
For many families, the house is the largest financial resource available.
In many instances, selling the home is what makes it possible to choose the right community, the right care, and the right level of support - instead of the settling for the most affordable.

WHAT IS RIGHTSIZING ?
Right-Sizing is a mindful way to simplify everything that parents have accumulated as they transition into a new home. Their children often help find a home that’s easier to maintain, more comfortable, and aligned with their goals as they age. As life changes, the spaces that once worked can start to feel too big or demanding.
Life changes and homes doesn’t always keep up (or down). RIGHTSIZING is aligning your new lifestyle with your new home.
Over time, homes naturally fill with a lifetime of belongings — especially for many Denver seniors who grew up in an era that valued saving practical items, heirlooms, and keepsakes. As families expanded and technology evolved, those homes accumulated decades of furniture, collections, and memories that now make the transition to a smaller space feel more complex.
WHO NEEDS HELP RIGHTSIZING?
As people age and their lifestyle changes, there is a natural tendency to keep all of this stuff. This can become dangerous as they become less mobile, and especially if there are issues with their memory.
I am a Senior RIGHTSIZING Advocate and a Realtor in Denver. That is fancy way of saying that I help older people and their families to align their lifestyle with their home.
When I work with many older adults and families in Denver, RIGHTSIZING means:
Less upkeep, more freedom. Enjoy your home that supports your lifestyle instead of controlling it.
Making room for what matters. Keep the memories, not the clutter.
Planning with purpose. Whether it’s a smaller home, a condo with amenities, or an active senior community, RIGHTSIZING helps ensure your next step is the right one.
Why is there a need to RIGHTSIZE ?
People’s lifestyles shift as they age and they may need help recognizing this which leads to their adult children having to step in the help. Denver RIGHTSIZING is specifically designed to help these adult children and they help their parents or loved ones.
RIGHTSIZING is an invaluable resource to help adult children that are confronted with their parents accumulations of “stuff.”
