These topics are a glimpse into the last 3 months and might inspire you with ideas or activities for the next 3 months. Enjoy!


Top 5 Senior Spotlights Of Summer 2021


#1: The Feature That Boomers CAN Live Without – Home gyms! That’s right – in this article we revealed not only what Boomers want, but what they don’t & why. Hint: Boomers want exercise to be social, not one more thing to do home alone!



#2: National Preparedness Month - The end of summer brought an annual topic that every one of us should be thinking about: emergency preparedness. With fire season far from over and the need to be ready for earthquakes and extended power outages at any time, our favorite part of this read is the tips written by seniors for seniors.



#3: “The Apartment” From The Alzheimer's Foundation of America - This blog received the most praise and engagement from our readers this summer (thank you!) and we completely understand why: everyone wants a better quality of life for their loved ones living with dementia – but no one tells you how – until now. Great work Alzheimer’s Foundation of America!



#4: Downsize, Rightsize or Upsize? - Affectionately called our ‘goldilocks of retirement blog’, we share driving forces among Boomers who are facing a home that is too big, too small or almost right! (And you might be surprised to learn which trend is emerging in popularity!)

 


#5: Signs You Still Have Time To Sell - With so many potential sellers wondering if their window of opportunity has passed, this article provides 5 reasons why you still have time to sell and how this particular window could provide a better benefit to you. Remember that virtually all real estate conditions are relative, so if your own home price is skyrocketing, so is the sales price of the home you want to buy. Thus, slower home price acceleration is not really a ‘bad’ thing as some media sources suggest. Just sayin’…
