Easing an Aging Parent’s Transition to Assisted Living

Jerry Kline (left), realtor with Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland, celebrates with Kathy Doud, on the sale of her mother’s long-time, colonial-style home in Millersville, Maryland.

Caring for an aging or infirm parent is never easy, especially when that mother, father or grandparent lives alone. When the time finally comes for a family member to transition to a more appropriate home or assisted living facility, the son, daughter or caregiver must coordinate the move in the most delicate and sensitive way.

This lovely home, located at 742 Live Oak Drive in Millersville, Maryland, was recently sold for $705,000 by Jerry Kline, realtor, Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland.

Jerry Kline, realtor with Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland, recently helped a family facing this difficult situation. After nearly 40 years of living in her home in the Shipley’s Choice community of Millersville, Maryland, Mary no longer needed or wanted to live in her massive colonial. Her health and lifestyle dictated that she move to an assisted living facility, and her children contacted Jerry to help sell her home.

Daughter Kathy and the rest of her siblings lived outside of Maryland, so they needed as much local help as possible to prepare the home for sale and handle all aspects of the transaction. Jerry dove right in to the project, helping to coordinate contractors to repair and update the home to ensure that it sold for the maximum price.

The property, located at 742 Live Oak Drive in Millersville, recently sold for $705,000. Mary’s transition to her new assisted living facility was seamless, and the family was very appreciative of Jerry’s efforts.

Jerry Kline recently helped Daric & Jamie purchase 703 Eachann Lane in Millersville, Maryland, a large, stately, colonial-style home nestled on a large tract of wooded land. But it wasn’t the first time the parties had worked together.

This home, located at 703 Eachann Lane in Millersville, Maryland, was recently sold to buyers represented by Jerry Kline, realtor, Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland.

Over the years Jerry has helped the couples’ family buy or sell three other properties, including a home in Bowie, Maryland, a building lot in Upper Marlboro and a home in Upper Marlboro. Through it all, the realtor and the clients have become good friends.

“Jerry is an amazing realtor,” Jamie said. “He worked with my husband and I for what felt like forever but he was ALWAYS extremely professional, responsive and kind. He really takes the time to understand what you want, he does his research and will not let you make a decision you will regret. He puts his clients and their future first, looking at the big picture.”

Daric & Jamie’s latest purchase comprises almost 5,000 sq. ft. of interior space and features nearly $250,000 worth of upgrades & updates. These include: a patio, gazebo and playhouse; a main-level study & conservatory; a great room; a gourmet kitchen; new windows & doors; a luxury master bedroom suite & spa bath; and a fully finished lower level with a huge rec room, office space and workshop.

What’s more, Jerry helped the buyers purchase the home for $37,500 under the asking price – and he convinced the sellers to give Daric & Jamie $25,000 in closing cost assistance. What a deal!
