WELCOME HOME TO CHESTNUT SQUARE AT THE GLEN

As we hunker down for another winter, you may find yourself thinking about how much longer you want to manage the responsibilities of homeownership—including shoveling snow, ongoing maintenance, and maintaining a property through the coldest months. If you’ve been considering a move to a senior living community, now is the perfect time to start touring the options so you can make the transition by spring or summer, when warmer weather will make the move easier. Here’s why winter is an ideal time to get a jump on the process: Planning Ahead for a Smooth Transition Moving to a senior living community is a significant decision, and one that shouldn’t be rushed. Selecting your community now will give you plenty of time to make thoughtful choices and prepare for the transition. You’ll have time to sell your house, organize your belongings, and ensure a smooth move come spring or summer. You’ll also be able to avoid the chaos of last-minute decisions and a rushed experience. Say Goodbye to Winter Woes A visit to Chestnut Square now will highlight exactly what you’ll be leaving behind. For many homeowners, winter means dealing with freezing pipes, ice damming, salting the driveway, and countless other stresses. Instead, you can start imagining a maintenance-free lifestyle surrounded by new friends. Avoid Unnecessary Delays One of the most frustrating things about procrastination is that we usually know the task we’re avoiding would actually make us feel better once we complete it. While it’s tempting not to think about your next move during the colder months, losing valuable time now could make it harder to move later. Spring and summer are busy seasons for senior living communities, with many people placing deposits as the weather warms up. Waiting until the last minute could mean fewer floor plan choices. Take Advantage of Our Move-Assist Program We realize that moving—and downsizing—are a lot to think about, but we make it easier for our future residents. Our team has put together a comprehensive moving guide that includes helpful tips, checklists, and a list of reputable senior move managers in the area who can assist with downsizing, organizing, packing, and delivery. For a limited time, Chestnut Square is also offering a Move-Assist credit of up to $3,500 that can be applied toward any of your moving expenses.
