What Does “Rightsizing” Mean?
Rightsizing is about simplifying your living situation without necessarily downsizing to a smaller home. For example, you may wish to stay in your current location but find your existing home too large or too difficult to maintain. You might also want to make modifications to your property to create a custom-built space that fits your changing needs.
Here are a few ways you can rightsize:
- Subdividing your property: If your land is large enough, subdividing can provide a significant financial return, while allowing you to build a new home that’s more suited to your needs.
- Moving to a purpose-built home: This could involve relocating to a newly built, low-maintenance home designed with accessibility features.
- Selling your home and moving to a simpler property: If your current home no longer suits your needs, selling and moving to a more manageable home in the same area could be the perfect fit.
