Help My Family

PATH 2 — I’m Helping a Parent or Loved One

When the Question Becomes: “What Are We Going to Do With Mom or Dad’s House?”

Adult children frequently become involved in a parent’s housing decisions. Sometimes the transition has been planned for years. Other times, a health event or change in circumstances forces the family to make several important decisions very quickly. And if you live outside Austin, coordinating everything can feel like a second job. Legacy can serve as the family’s local real estate point of coordination.

Transition to Senior Living

If a parent is moving into independent living, assisted living, memory care or another senior community, the family still has to determine what happens to the home.

We can help coordinate the real estate side of that transition, including:

The Value

Your family can devote more attention to your loved one while Legacy manages the real estate process.

Long-Distance Family Support

Mom or Dad Is in Austin. You Aren’t.

Trying to prepare and sell a parent’s home from another city or state can be particularly difficult.

Depending on your needs, Legacy can help coordinate:

The Value

You have a trusted local real estate resource helping keep the property-related work organized and moving forward.

Estate & Inherited Property Services

Inherited properties can create another layer of decisions for families.

Legacy can assist with the real estate component while working alongside the family’s attorney, CPA, financial advisor, executor and other professionals.

The Value

One point of contact helps organize the property-related work while legal, tax and financial matters remain with the appropriate professionals.

Senior Transition Resource Network

Families often discover that they need much more than a Realtor.

Our resource network may include:

The Value

Instead of searching for every resource independently, your family has a starting point for identifying professionals who may be able to help.

Legacy does not provide legal, tax, financial, medical or senior-care advice. Clients should consult appropriately licensed professionals for those services.
