We have noticed quite a bit of publicity for the senior moving companies lately. A feature in the newspaper drew our attention, followed by the need of these services by a widowed down-sizer who was moving out of the country, and finally a phone call from our local yellowpages rep. The rep gave us a connection to a downsizing company in Northeast Ohio who may be able to refer us to clients for our interior redesign and staging services. So we did some research on this up and coming industry.

Here's a quiz for you. We certainly would have underestimated our own answers. Let these stats stick to your brain and find out if wisdom truly comes with age...
