MOM AND DAD ARE MOVING. BUT DOES THE HOUSE HAVE TO GO? Selling the family home isn’t always the only option. For some families, keeping the home and turning it into a rental property may provide additional monthly income while allowing Mom or Dad to hold onto an important asset. But becoming a landlord comes with a whole new list of responsibilities. Finding and screening tenants. Collecting rent. Handling maintenance and repairs. Responding when something breaks. Keeping up with inspections, vendors and the property itself. That can quickly become another job, especially when the family is already focused on Mom or Dad’s care and transition. A professional property manager can take much of that responsibility off the family's shoulders. And when you're dealing with a parent's home, choosing the RIGHT property manager matters. Look for someone who communicates clearly, understands the local rental market, has reliable vendors and treats the property like the valuable family asset it is. Sometimes the question isn't “Should we sell Mom and Dad's house?” It’s: “Could this house start helping pay for their next chapter?” Seniornicity helps seniors and families connect with trusted Property Management professionals in their community.
