of my home for me. Good neighbors are great
but hospital and rehab stays can be unpredictable. Brandywine Senior Transitions can take the worry out of extended absences.. We can check on your home weekly, arrange for repairs, lawn care
and snow removal, make sure your bills are paid, ready your home for your return and even secure
a companion at your request. We’ll
be there for you – no worrying about asking anyone for a favor, no concerns about imposing upon friends and neighbors for
their kindnesses.

I'm moving to a cottage at a local Continuing
Care Retirement Community? Why should I have Brandywine Senior Transitions handle my move? Can't I do it all myself?
Packing and moving
from one location to another can be exhausting - especially if you're downsizing at the same time. Many folks have made the move on their own but very few will tell you
that it was quick and easy. In fact, seniors (and their families) tell us the whole effort was a major source of stress
that they would have preferred to do without. Why not let Brandywine Senior Transitions' senior move manager services relieve that stress by doing
the work for you? Call or email us today!

I'm selling my home. Why should I clean, repair, and dress my home for
sale? It seems like a lot of bother and expense.
Home buyers want the same thing you
do - a clean, attractive home they can imagine living in. According to Money Magazine (11/2004), cleaning, repairing and dressing your home for sale can "help
make your home appeal to a wider audience by eliminating distractions...The result is a neutral but attractive environment
that lets the bones of the home shine through." This effort pays off in homes that sell faster and at better prices than
homes put on the market without some polishing. Don't want to do it all yourself? No problem! Our Senior Move Managers can help you make the most from one of your biggest assets.
