Is It Time to Let Go of Your Home?

If you’re feeling stuck between wanting to move and not knowing how to emotionally handle it, here’s what I’d say...

Let’s talk about something that doesn’t get said enough in the housing world:

Even if you’re frustrated with the space.
Even if you’re longing for something new.
Even if the logic all points to moving.

There can still be a weight in your chest when you think about letting go.

Maybe it’s the place where your kids took their first steps.
Maybe it’s where you spent a milestone birthday.
Or maybe it just represents a chapter you’re not quite done processing yet.

That’s okay.

If you’re feeling stuck between wanting to move and not knowing how to emotionally handle it, here’s what I’d say:
Start with a conversation.

You don’t need to have all the answers before you speak to someone. In fact, that’s what I'm here for.

As your local avocado property agent, I’ve helped people move through every stage of this journey, from the moment they first say, “I think it might be time” to the day they hand over the keys.

There’s no hard sell here. Just support. Honest advice. And someone on your team.

So, if you’re wondering whether it’s time to move on, but feel like something still needs closing first, let’s talk.
