The Hidden Costs of Holding Onto Your Home Too Long

In this episode, we’re diving into a tough but important topic: the real cost of holding onto a home longer than you should. Many homeowners—especially downsizers and seniors—struggle with the decision to move because of memories, fear of change, or simply not knowing where to start.

But what’s the real cost of staying? We’ll break down the financial, emotional, and lifestyle impact of keeping a home that no longer fits your needs. From skyrocketing maintenance costs to the stress of managing a large space, we’ll explore why waiting too long can actually be more expensive and overwhelming.

Plus, I’ll share practical tips to help you decide when it’s time to move—and how to make the transition easier. If you’ve been wondering whether it’s time for a fresh start, this episode is for you!
