Should I Sell or Stay Put This Year? A Senior’s Decision Framework | Halifax Seniors Real Estate

If you’re a homeowner over 60 in Halifax, you’ve probably asked yourself:
“Should I sell my home this year… or should I stay put?”

In this video, Roy Thomas from Halifax Senior Living walks you through a clear, practical decision-making framework to help seniors decide whether downsizing, rightsizing, or staying in their current home makes the most sense over the next 6–12 months.

Even though this video was recorded during the “new year planning” season, the advice is timeless and applies anytime you’re thinking about your next move.

In this video, you’ll learn how to evaluate:

Whether your home still fits your lifestyle
The true cost of maintenance and upkeep
How your home fits into your retirement finances
Health, mobility, and future-proofing considerations
How to make a calm, confident, non-rushed decision
