How Own & Profit ™ Helped an Older Couple Transform Their Home into a Source of Income and Freedom
Jane and John, a retired couple in their 60s, had lived in their cherished suburban home for decades. As they transitioned into retirement, they faced a common dilemma: maintaining their large home was becoming increasingly burdensome, especially with their children growing and living independently. However, despite the financial strain, they weren’t ready to sell or downsize. Their home was filled with memories and sentimental value, making selling challenging.
At the same time, Jane and John had always dreamed of traveling more during their retirement, exploring new places, and spending time with family across the country. But they were concerned about leaving their home unattended for extended periods. Security, maintenance, and ongoing costs weighed heavily on their minds.
Initially, they hesitated about renting out unused units of their property or the entire home to guests. The thought of strangers staying in their beloved place felt uncomfortable, and they worried about potential damage or disturbances. However, after learning about the comprehensive services offered by Own & Profit™, they decided to give it a try.
