At 87 mom agrees she needs assistance with daily life.
Her terms are that house must be sold before she moves and with built in guilt " i wont be happy anywhere else".
Lucky for me my significant other is accepting to have mom move to AZ to home or assisted living.
All children are from out of state, and i listed Queens NY home for sale, but so far any walk throughs are stymied with one of the children being there to facilitate and she wont be out of the house for it. Only a few weeks into this. I have some walk throughs scheduled for my NY trip next week.
I have not yet engaged a realtor (zillow listing so far) and may interview one to see if they will do what is needed to earn their commission instead of asking for home improvement investments to simplify their sale transaction.
We tried to find in home assistant and after brother and i pre-screened.. then mom interviews found reason to decline 3 options. So not pursuing the interim in home assistance option. Mom needs a "good day" to walk to the avenue and get groceries and the neighborhood friends and family network has expired down to a shallow pool. This needs to be solved soon.
Resources are not a near term issue (i and my mom can afford getting some help) , but finding a paid trusted individual with Polish and English speaking skills is a challenge.
Unsure if i have a question the community can answer... maybe someone who dealt with similar life event can share some advice.
