Are You.... an Empty Nester? Children grown up? It may be wise to take this opportunity to reevaluate your living situation. How much space do you now need? Where do you want to spend the future? Cashing Out? It may be prudent and necessary to sell and use the funds from the sale of your home to manage retirement and daily expenses. Downsizing?
