Emptying a parent’s home is hard. Finding trusted help should not be.
Senior Transition Pros is Atlanta’s verified shortlist for the whole job: the move, the estate sale, the cleanout, and the care decisions around them. Tell us where you are in the process and we will match you with vetted local pros. No spam, no selling your information, one human follow up.
Every pro the job takes, in one place
Most families hire three or four of these in a row, in this order. Here is what each one does, what it typically costs, and what we check before a firm earns a Verified badge.
Senior move managers
Downsizing, sorting, packing, and settling your parent into the new home. Typically $60 to $125 an hour, quoted by the job.
NASMM verifiedInsurance confirmedEstate sales & liquidation
In home sales and online auctions for what does not move. Reputable companies work on commission, typically 35 to 50 percent of gross sales in Atlanta (higher for smaller sales), and most do not ask for money up front. We publish each firm’s range on its profile.
Contract requiredCommission shownAging life care managers
Independent nurses and social workers who assess care needs and coordinate the plan. They work for your family only, and association rules bar them from taking referral fees.
ALCA memberCertification checkedComing soon: senior specialist realtors (SRES) and estate cleanout crews, verified the same way.
