Forever Young in an Empty Nest
Time goes so fast. And we grow older with it But does that mean we have to get old? Not if you plan to be forever young.
Age is a state of mind, and if you plan well, you can plan around hurdles and obstacles that might otherwise weigh you down. Decisions made today can keep you Forever Young
Remember, this is the beginning, not the end. If you are 50 to 60 years old, you’ve got decades ahead of you! Planning correctly can allow you to live your dreams, the way you want to live them, and make dreams yet to come true, do so.
Whether your nest is empty now, or soon to be, here are some things you should consider during this crucial part of your life.
Fun! The best years are right in front of you. If you are 50-60 years young, you’re in the prime of your life. You can live anywhere, and do anything. Don’t let anyone tell you what to do. Life is meant to be lived. If that means moving to a smaller more manageable place, doing a remodel project, building a big place…whatever…go for it!
Freedom: Do you want to mow the grass and weed the garden. Or would you prefer an HOA agreement take care of those things for you. The choice is yours and there are plenty of options available to give you the lifestyle you want to live. A good Realtor can help you.
Family: Grandkids are awesome! Do you want to move near them, or will they come visit you? Think about things like upstairs bedrooms for them while you are on the first floor. Or think about a yard if you want to play with the kids outside. Picture it…then do it!
No matter what you want…be you! Loud and proud, quiet and private, big or small, near or far. What matters is that you get to choose. This is your time.
Be sure to talk with a Realtor to make sure you’ve gone through all of the lifestyle options before you decide where to make your empty nest. Making the right decisions today can keep you forever young tomorrow.
