If you’ve reached the time of life where you are contemplating downsizing your home, there are a few things to consider:

What kind of lifestyle do you want after downsizing?

By defining how you want to live, you can narrow your search and focus on housing that will meet those requirements. For example, if you want to escape the bluster of winter and relax on a beach, local climate conditions and geography will drive your hunt. Or, if you like social activities, you would seek active adult communities where you can interact with like-minded people.

What will you budget look like?

Do you have enough equity in your home to make a profit?  If you have enough equity, you can buy your next home outright or bring a sizeable down payment on closing day.

Will be able to find another home that’s affordable in a seller’s market?

These are a few of the things to consider when downsizing. I would be pleased to answer any of your questions and have the experience to assist you with this transition in your life!
