HEATHER DOMI TEAM
REAL ESTATE LITERACY: TURNING LIFE TRANSITIONS INTO OPPORTUNITIES
CLARITY, COMPASSION, AND GUIDANCE WHEN THE STAKES FEEL HIGH.
Whether You’re Facing...
• A divorce, separation, or loss
• An empty nest or new beginning
• An inheritance or family wealth transfer
• A relocation, fresh start, or retirement
• Adult children launching — or returning
• Aging parents who need care or a new plan
In these moments, your next move often hinges on real estate: What to do with your current home. Where to go next. How to invest wisely.
That’s where the Heather Domi Team steps in–not just as real estate advisors, but as your trusted guides during life’s pivotal transitions."
What You Might Be Wondering
AND WHY YOU’RE NOT ALONE:
“Should I sell, rent, or hold?”
Understand the financial and emotional trade-offs of each option. Explore shortterm relief vs. long-term gain.
“Can I afford to stay — or move?”
Let’s clarify your budget based on real numbers, not guesswork. This includes equity, liquidity, tax implications, and future needs.
“What does this property mean to me now?”
Sentimental ties can cloud smart decisions. Naming your values and goals helps guide the path forward.
“How do I make big decisions in the middle of emotional change?”
You don’t have to rush. The right support helps you slow down, get clear, and move forward with confidence — not confusion.
Best Practices for Real Estate Decisions During Transition
Pause Before You Act
Big moves deserve thoughtful planning. Even urgent changes can benefit from a calm, strategic approach.
Know What Your Home is Really Worth
Market value, rental potential, maintenance costs, and tax exposure — get the full picture before making a decision.
Separate Emotion from Strategy
It’s normal to feel attached. But sound real estate decisions are based on clarity, not nostalgia.
Ask the Right Questions
• What will my housing needs look like 1, 3, or 10 years from now?
• What kind of flexibility do I need?
• How do I create financial stability from this asset?
Look at Your Entire Financial Picture
How does this home fit into your overall goals — retirement, liquidity, investment, legacy?
Build the Right Team
• An agent who understands life transitions
• A financial advisor who can model scenarios
• A lawyer who protects your interests
• A mortgage broker who can guide you
• An accountant who sees beyond the spreadsheets.
