age in place: What If You Don't Find That Condo In Baltimore
- 11/12/21 08:54 PM
Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over and looking for different results. That's what it's like trying to find homes for our empty-nesters and baby boomers. You may never find that large Baltimore Condo! For two years, I have been looking for the "right" condo for buyers who want to plan for the next 15 years. They are empty-nesters. And they are not looking to downsize but to right-size. Space to live and enjoy, and they want all the bells and whistles. Waiting for large condos in our area has been frustrating. If and when these rare condos become available, they sell before they … (7 comments)
age in place: When To Sell Your Home
- 10/02/21 09:28 PM
Not everyone has a choice of when to move. There may be age or health concerns that affect when you sell. There may be a loss of a spouse or caregiver. There may be family too far away that you are not able to stay connected. There may be financial challenges when you don't have a choice, and there comes a time when a move is a necessity. Changing homes is not easy at any time, but as people age, there is more of a challenge: so many questions and so many concerns. Is your home set up to 'age-in-place? Is it safe? Is it … (17 comments)
age in place: Why Do We Call It...
- 05/09/21 08:05 AM
Mother-In-Law suite? Anyone can live in an "in-law" suite, not just a mother-in-law. Then, why do we call it a MIL suite?
There are many ways to use this extra space, including returning kids, grandkids, college students, visiting guests, blended families, home office suites, workout studios, and yes, suites for parents. This space can provide aging in place with privacy and independence. Perfect (instead of a facility) for supporting family members with assisted living or a separate apartment when it might not be affordable. It's a good plan for the future. When not in use, allow your home to produce extra income by renting out … (26 comments)
It may not be the time to sell. Aging In Place May Be That Option.
Counseling is a big part when working with Seniors. You often have family members making decisions. Grown children thinking Mom or Dad should be in a condo or adult community. Sometimes they are right, but sometimes it is not the right answer. I have seen couples sell their homes at the urging of others...only to reverse the situation and try to come back home. It is a huge challenge moving once must less twice. And way too exhausting for people much younger.
What is a forever home? It is a house that allows you to age in place! My definition is when the entire first level has it all, master bedroom, two master baths, a library, decks, and a spectacular kitchen with access to the garage...and there is a lift to hold a seasonal sports car!
The lower level has a great room, the game room, three bedrooms, and a full bath. This home is perfect for guests and visiting grandkids all in the lower walkout level!

8820 Greens Lane is a 5 Bedroom 3 full bath rancher in the Fieldstone Area of Randallstown, Maryland 22133 This one has beautiful curb appeal and shows pride of ownership. This is such a special stone home and was built to last. Four bedrooms on the first level with a sunken living room, formal dining room and a wonderful country kitchen that overlooks the level back yard. I wrote about this special property some time ago and realized how time flies...
Beautiful country kitchen has it all plus large windows overlooking the level backyard.
It was back in December of 2009 when this young family called me to list their home. I even gave a sneak preview when it was decorated for the holiday. Just a Tease! Coming Soon! But things changed and the sellers decided to wait. They made a wonderful addition... no, not to the house but to their family... a second child... they have a magnificent 13 month old daughter. So now they are really ready … (13 comments)
