Senior Transition Support
The emotional and physical weight of sorting through a home full of memories is the hardest part of any transition. Maura and her team handle it all with care, patience, and a clear plan.
Sorting & Decision-Making
We help determine what to keep, sell, or donate, working through each room with sensitivity to the emotional weight of every decision. Nothing is rushed, and nothing is thrown away without your approval.
Packing & Moving
Professional, careful packing of everything that's going to the new location. We label, organize, and coordinate the move, so items arrive safely and in the right order.
Donation & Sale Coordination
Items that aren't moving with the family don't go to waste. We coordinate donations to San Diego organizations, arrange sales of valuable pieces, and handle responsible disposal.
Staging
As a Certified Staging Professional, Maura prepares homes to look their best for sale or rental. She arranges furniture, declutters, and creates a welcoming atmosphere.
Unpacking & Setup
At the new location, we unpack and set up: placing furniture, organizing belongings, and making the new space feel like home from day one.
Home Cleaning & Prep
Before a home is sold, rented, or handed over, we coordinate thorough cleaning, minor repairs, and painting so the property is in excellent condition.
Real Estate & Property Management
When a transition involves a home that needs to be sold, rented, or purchased, Erika Walker brings 25+ years of San Diego real estate expertise to guide you through every decision.
Selling a Home
Erika manages the full sales process, from pricing strategy and listing to negotiations and closing. She understands the emotional dynamics of selling a family home in San Diego.
Sale vs. Rent Analysis
Not sure whether to sell or rent? Erika provides a clear analysis of both options, including market conditions, expected income, costs, and tax implications.
Property Management
If the family decides to rent, Erika handles tenant placement, lease management, maintenance coordination, and ongoing oversight.
Buying a New Home
When a loved one is moving to a new home, Erika helps find and secure the right place, handling the real estate side so the family can focus on the person.
Home Preparation
Before a home goes on the market, Erika coordinates any needed repairs, painting, deep cleaning, and staging to ensure maximum value.
Timeline Coordination
Erika aligns the real estate timeline with the transition timeline, so nothing is out of sync and deadlines are met.
Finding the right place to call home
Choosing a senior living community is one of the most personal decisions a family can make. Our network includes experienced placement agents who understand San Diego's senior living landscape, from independent living and assisted living to memory care and skilled nursing facilities.
Community Research
We identify communities that match your loved one's care needs, lifestyle preferences, and budget, narrowing down the options so you don't have to research alone.
Facility Tours & Evaluation
Placement agents accompany families on tours, evaluate staff-to-resident ratios, review care plans, and help you compare communities side by side.
Transition Coordination
Once a community is selected, we coordinate the move, working with Maura's team to pack, transport, and set up the new space so the transition feels seamless.
Attorneys who understand your situation
Senior transitions often involve legal complexities, from updating powers of attorney to navigating probate or setting up a trust. Full Circle Transitions connects you with attorneys who specialize in elder law and estate planning.
Estate Planning
Trusts, wills, beneficiary updates, and advance directives. We connect you with estate planning attorneys who can ensure your loved one's wishes are documented and legally protected.
Elder Law
From Medicaid planning and asset protection to guardianship and conservatorship, elder law attorneys help navigate the legal framework surrounding aging and long-term care.
Power of Attorney
If your loved one can no longer manage their own affairs, establishing durable power of attorney and healthcare directives is essential. We connect you with the right legal counsel.
Probate & Trust Administration
When a loved one has passed, probate or trust administration may be required. Our legal network helps families navigate these processes with clarity and efficiency.
Financial clarity when you need it most
A senior transition can have significant financial implications, from the cost of long-term care to estate taxes and the financial impact of selling a home. Our network of financial professionals helps families make informed decisions.
Financial Planning
From funding long-term care to restructuring assets for a loved one's benefit, financial advisors help families create a plan that supports both care needs and long-term financial security.
Estate Tax Guidance
Selling a home, transferring assets, or managing an estate can trigger tax obligations. Accountants in our network help you understand what's owed and how to minimize the burden.
Medicare & Benefits Review
Understanding Medicare, Medicaid, VA benefits, and long-term care insurance can be overwhelming. Our professionals help decode what's covered and what gaps need to be addressed.
Budgeting for Care
Whether it's the monthly cost of assisted living, in-home care, or a combination, we help families build a realistic budget that accounts for current needs and future scenarios.
Unlocking the equity you have built in your home
A reverse mortgage may help eligible homeowners access part of the equity in their home to fund home modifications, cover care expenses, or purchase a property that better fits their needs. Understanding your options is the first step.
For many seniors, home equity is one of the largest financial resources available. A reverse mortgage specialist can help your family understand whether accessing that equity makes sense for your specific situation, and what alternatives exist.
Reverse Mortgage Education
Understanding how reverse mortgages work, who qualifies, and what the tradeoffs are.
Aging in Place Modifications
Using home equity to fund changes that make staying home safer and more practical.
Home Purchase Options
Exploring how a HECM for Purchase may help you buy a new home that fits better for the years ahead.
Family Consultation
Sitting down with your family to review all options before making a decision.
