Are You Considering Selling a Home Prior to Assisted Living?

If you’re looking into senior housing for yourself or a loved one, you may be wondering how you’ll pay for it. Selling a home is often the best way to free up funds to pay for assisted living or long-term care.

The HomeBuyers of Pittsburgh team respects that this may be a stressful or difficult choice. We aim to make the process much quicker, easier, and less complicated than listing the home with a Realtor. Instead of weeks of waiting for an agent to list, market, and negotiate offers, we’ll give you an instant cash offer.

You can see our customer reviews here for more on why we’re the best, most reputable and established home buyer in the greater Pittsburgh area.

How We Can Help with the Assisted Living Transition

Our team recently worked with an elderly man and his daughter who had concerns that they would have to close too fast, which would not leave enough time to make the transition to senior living. We were able to deliver a cash offer on their Upper St. Clair home along with the closing date of their choice so that they had time.

“We were able to close on their timeline and help them through a stressful situation,” said owner Ryan Scialabba.

“They were definitely nervous throughout the transaction, but were relieved we did what we said we would and made it happen.”

For peace of mind, not only will we guarantee we’ll close on the day you choose, we can help you sell or move items through our network, and have a special transition program to make moving onto your next chapter a breeze.
