Downsizing, or helping a parent move into care?

A move to something smaller, or into care, often comes with a house full of memories and a lot to organize. Here is a calm, practical way to think through the sale, at your family’s pace.

Most of our offers are cash. If yours is different, we explain it upfront.

We buy as investors. Our offers are usually below full retail value.

01

Start with who can make the decision

If the owner is selling, they sign. If a family member is helping under a power of attorney, ask a lawyer to confirm the document covers selling real estate before anyone accepts an offer; a power of attorney ends when the person dies. If the home is a spouse’s homestead, that spouse may need to consent to the sale. Everyone involved should have independent legal advice.

02

Line the sale up with the move

Moves into care or a smaller home often have their own dates. Tell any buyer the timeline you need. A later possession date, or extra time to remove belongings, can be written into a purchase agreement if both sides agree.

  • Confirm the move-in date for the new home or care residence
  • Decide which belongings stay with the family
  • Ask whether furniture or items can be left behind, and put it in writing
  • Keep utilities and insurance active until closing, and tell the insurer if the house will sit empty
03

Compare your options without pressure

If the house is in good shape and there is time, listing with an agent may bring the highest price. If it needs work, or the move makes repairs and showings hard, a direct as-is sale is another option to compare. You can compare both before deciding.

Questions about selling your house for cash

Ask us a question
Do I need to repair or clean the property first?

You can start the conversation with the property exactly as it is. Tell us about known repairs, belongings and occupancy so we can discuss an as-is offer. Any agreed cleanout or repairs should be recorded in the purchase agreement.

Does Pursuit buy directly or work with other buyers?

Both. Sometimes one of our buying partners completes the purchase. We’ll tell you who before you sign. The agreement you review with your own lawyer shows it in writing.

Am I committed when I request an offer?

No. An enquiry is a request to talk about your property, not an agreement to sell. You can ask questions, compare your alternatives and obtain independent advice before signing a purchase agreement.
