Why I Created This Guide
I'm Talesa Aguirre, a Senior Real Estate Specialist here in Southern California.
I've worked with dozens of families navigating this exact moment, and I've seen how often seniors feel overlooked during major transitions.
This guide was created from the heart—to walk beside you, help you feel safe, and give you a clear plan forward.
Your Questions, Answered
Q: Is this guide really free?
Yes, completely free. No credit card, no strings attached. I created this because I believe every senior deserves to make informed decisions about their home and future.
Q: What if I'm not sure whether I want to stay in my home long-term?
That's completely normal. Many people are exploring their options. This guide gives you the information you need to make the best decision for you—whether that's aging in place, downsizing later, or something in between.
Q: Are these modifications expensive?
It depends on the scope, but many critical safety changes (like grab bars and improved lighting) cost between $1,500–$3,500 in Southern California. The guide breaks down realistic costs and shares local programs and grants that can help cover them.
Q: Do I need to hire a contractor to make these changes?
Some modifications (like grab bars and walk-in showers) should be done by licensed professionals for safety and code compliance. The guide includes a section on how to find certified specialists who understand aging in place.
Q: What happens after I download the guide?
You'll receive the guide immediately via email. Over the next two weeks, I'll also send you helpful tips and resources—like how to find financial assistance and what questions to ask contractors. You can unsubscribe anytime.
Q: I'm an adult child researching options for my parent. Is this guide still helpful?
Absolutely. Many family members download this guide to start informed conversations with their parents. It's a great way to explore solutions together.
Q: Will you try to sell me something?
No. My goal is to be a trusted resource. If and when you're ready to talk about selling, moving, or next steps, I'm here. But there's zero pressure—this guide is simply a gift to help you plan with confidence.
Q: Does this guide cover reverse mortgages or other financial options?
The guide focuses primarily on home modifications and local grant programs. However, I do touch on options like home equity loans and FHA 203(k) loans that can help fund larger projects.
