Marion's story
Marion had been living in her home for 28 years, but she was yearning to move to the seaside, where her sister lived. She had been thinking about moving for a couple of years but felt overwhelmed by the process.
With our holistic approach to supporting those moving in later life we not only sold Marion's home (and achieved a great price) but also supported her with the aspects of moving that concerned her, such as the legal work, as well as the emotional reality of moving and stepping into a new chapter of life.
Marion says:
'I could not have made my move without Turners Oak and Susan’s help; I am very grateful because I’m now in a new house in a new area and very happy!'
'Being a single woman of a certain age and not good with technology made me very anxious about moving house. It had been on my mind to move but I just kept putting it off. It was too stressful.
When I heard about Turners Oak and met Susan, I immediately felt that she understood my situation and that a move may finally be possible. Susan helped me to fill in forms of which there were many, some quite complicated. She also gave me a choice of local Solicitors, so I could pop in with paperwork, as I don't like doing things online. The team produced an excellent write-up of my home, and the photographs were excellent too.
My property was not your normal family home, but they directed the right people to view. The couple who viewed my property on the second day were the people who actually bought it. They told me how lucky I was to have such a good agent, because she was very helpful to them as well.'
