When moving out of the home, older adults and their families can find it challenging when it comes to property. What to keep, what to pass on to family, what to sell, what can be donated, and what must be disposed of. This is all very time consuming, and can be very emotional. We can help you decide, and we can take care of the actions. We work with Traders, Trade Me, Auctioneers and Charities to get the best value for your assets, or at least give them another chance.
The only guarantee in life, is that it will end.

Here’s a review from Andy from 2025
I wish there was an option for 10 stars. I actually don’t know what we would have done if we didn’t find Jeremy from Senior Transitions. The road ahead when we landed back in NZ to help our Dad after his stroke was so daunting. Jeremy made this such and easy process, such a nice person, nothing was a problem, he helped us with a timeline and executed on each step. I actually can’t believe we got his care, house, belongings and everything in between sorted in the limited time we had in Christchurch. Our dad is in a great home and our stress levels are now very minimal and we can enjoy our time with him.
