The thought of downsizing can be a daunting one, particularly when you don’t know where to start. At Gordon’s we’ve been helping clients in the Kingston area downsize for over 25 years and we have managing the process in a stress-reduced way down to a science. We help clients: plan where to move, what to move, manage the packing, moving and unpacking for them, and help them handle disposal of any remaining contents they can’t take with them, preparing their property for sale, and finally listing and selling their property. Over the years, we’ve learned that the following five tips are key for navigating the downsizing process with ease.

If you live in the Ottawa area and are interested in learning how to "Overcome Overwhelmed" when considering how to downsize in a stress reduced way, come out to this free workshop event at Chartwell Bridlewood's open house event.

RSVP by September 17 to Caitlin MacKenzie at cmackenzie@chartwell.com or at 613-809-3548.
