The Process

We start with your family,
not the house.

Full Circle Transitions helps San Diego families navigate every part of a major life change. We start with your family's needs, your timeline, and your peace of mind. The house comes later. Your heart comes first.

Step 1 Explore Your Situation

We listen first.

Every family's transition is different. Maybe you're managing care for an aging parent, handling an estate after a loss, or helping a loved one downsize. Whatever brought you here, we start by sitting down with you in person or by phone to understand your family's unique situation, your timeline, and what matters most to you.

There's never any pressure and there's no obligation. Just an honest, compassionate conversation about where things stand and how we can help.

What to expect

We'll ask about your family's needs, your timeline, any specific challenges you're facing, and what you're hoping to achieve. Whether it's a sudden transition or something you've been planning for months, we're here to help you make sense of it all.

What to bring

Nothing required. Just share what's on your mind. We'll take it from there.

Attorneys & Legal Referrals

Estate planning, elder law, power of attorney, probate, we connect you with attorneys who specialize in the legal complexities of senior transitions.

Placement Agents

Experienced professionals who tour assisted living facilities with you, evaluate care options, and help find the right community for your loved one.

Financial Specialists

Financial planners and accountants who help with funding long-term care, understanding benefits, and navigating the financial side of a transition.

Whatever You Need

Your family's situation is unique, and your team should be too. Some families need a full network of professionals. Others just need guidance on the next step. We meet you where you are and pull in exactly the right people.

Step 2 Build Your Power Team

No two families are alike. Neither is our approach.

Every family is different. Some need a lot of support, like attorneys, placement agents, financial advisors, and packing help. Others just need someone to help them figure out the next step. We don't offer a one-size-fits-all package because your family isn't like anyone else's.

Once we understand what you're going through, we bring in exactly the right people for your situation. Not a pre-set roster, but a team built around what matters most to you. Maura coordinates the downsizing, the sorting, the packing, the staging, the timelines, and every detail in between.

Step 3 Coordinate Everything

Maura holds it all together.

This is where the real work begins. And this is where Maura Laverty truly shines. As your Residential Transition Specialist, Maura is the central point of contact for your entire transition. She coordinates the packing, the sorting, the staging, the downsizing, the timelines, and every detail in between.

Maura manages the whole team. She makes sure the attorney filings are timed with the real estate decisions, that the packing schedule aligns with the move-in date, and that nothing falls through the cracks. You don't have to chase five different people. You call Maura, and she handles it.

The philosophy

Maura was an RN for 10 years in cardiac care and ICU. She knows how to care for families during the hardest moments of their lives. That empathy, combined with a gift for organization, is what holds every transition together.

Sell the Home

When selling makes the most sense, Erika handles everything, pricing, listing, negotiations, and closing.

Rent the Home

If keeping the property makes more sense, Erika manages tenant placement, leases, and ongoing property management.

Or Something Else Entirely

Fix up and sell later. Transfer to a family member. Keep as an investment. The right answer is whatever serves the family best, even if that means they don't sell.

Step 4 Find the Right Solution for the Home

The right answer for the house comes last.

Only after your family's needs are fully understood does Erika Walker, our Realtor and Broker, evaluate what makes the most sense for the property. Erika's job isn't to sell a house. It's to find the right solution for the family. That might be selling, renting, managing, fixing up and selling later, or something else entirely.

With over 25 years of San Diego real estate experience, Erika brings honest analysis and market expertise. But always in service of what's best for your family, not the other way around.

Your Core Team

The people who hold it all together

At the center of every transition are two experienced professionals who coordinate everything on your behalf, with a full power team behind them.

The Full Circle Difference

A coordinated approach to every part of the transition

Led by Maura Laverty, Senior Transition Support

Most families start by tackling one piece of the puzzle. Finding a mover, calling a realtor, or searching for a senior community. But a senior transition isn't one problem. It's a dozen problems that all connect.

As a Certified Staging Professional, Maura prepares the home to look its best, highlighting its positive features so it sells quickly and for the best price possible. Together with Erika, the plan is to support the family with the finances to provide for their future needs.

At Full Circle Transitions, every piece is coordinated from the start. Your family's needs come first. The house comes last. And in between, you have a full team of professionals, including real estate expertise when you need it, working together to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
