Why should you select a Senior Real Estate Specialist for your move?

The SRES designation means that we've received additional training from the National Association of Realtors that makes us specifically qualified to address the real estate needs of adults in the 50+ age bracket.

How WE can help

Having a Senior Relocation Specialist can help.

We know the challenges you're facing. You likely feel overwhelmed with choices, or maybe you don't even know where to begin.

Safety is becoming a concern

Family member realizes their loved one is no longer safe in their home. They don't know how to approach this topic. Or maybe they have, and their loved one says they don't want to move.

All parties know a change is needed

We have helped them to navigate this conversation. Maybe we have even sat in on, and guided the conversation. Now the senior understands why their safety is of concern. We have explained their options, and they feel excited and optimistic for the next step.

Downsizing feels daunting

Senior knows they need to leave their home. But they need to downsize first. They don't know where to begin. They have 75 years worth of special belongings and memories they need to sort through.

All items are cared for properly

They feel empowered and ready to sort through and set aside their most special possessions to take with them to their new home. Anything they have decided to part with is donated or an estate sale is set up.

Nerves about leaving familiarity

The senior fears they will hate leaving their home and living in senior community.

Thriving in a new home

Senior is happy and thriving in their new community. They've made friends, are engaged in life enrichment programming, are healthy, and so glad they made the decision to move.

We are here to help.

Helping you navigate senior transitions.

Hey there! I'm Kelsie – REALTOR® and SRES®. When I first started assisting seniors and their families with housing and healthcare transitions, I discovered how difficult and stressful the process is for them. There is so much to do, from downsizing, to selling your home, to finding the next right place. I wished there was a one-stop-shop that offered all of these services. I realized that if I could streamline this process, it would be so much less stressful for seniors and their families. So that is exactly what I did. I started Midwest Moves to serve as a guide during the entire process.

A heart for serving seniors and their loved ones.

I've had a heart for serving seniors since I was a child. My earliest memory of this was at church around 7 years old. There was an older gentleman who always sat alone a few pews behind my family. Every day after the service was over, people would congregate in the lobby sipping coffee, eating cookies, and chatting with their friends and family. This gentleman always sat alone. I wanted to know his story, and for him to know he wasn't alone. I didn't know it then, but the compassion and empathy I felt towards this gentleman would grow into my purpose and mission for serving seniors in my career as an adult.

I was born and raised in Michigan, I'm a Yooper at heart, but currently live in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with my husband and two dogs. I enjoy volunteering for organizations in my community that give back to homebound and underserved seniors, as well as a couple dog rescues. When I'm not working, I'm enjoying Lake Michigan, or exploring one of Milwaukee's many breweries.
