THE BABY BOOM GENERATION IS FAST APPROACHING RETIREMENT.  Here are some smart ideas for making the transition. It is important to plan for retirement, those who do are generally happier with the outcome because they're more in charge. When my husband, Pat, and I decided to move to Michigan full time from Chicago, where we both lived all our lives, we first anticipated all issues and began to deal w/them rather than just sit back. We considered  financial issues, goals and how we would spend our time.  We are by no means retired yet but the earlier you start planning the better. Develop a financial plan & have a contingency plan that covers what to do if someone gets sick. Have candid conversations about where & when you'll be retiring.

Is it best to test-drive a new retirement location?  Absolutely!   Go and rent a place and do so in the worst season.  If you're happy, your move will be a piece of cake, though you also need to see how open a community is.  Saugatuck Center for the Arts, the galleries, restaurants, boating, golfing & by the way, it is absolutely beautiful in the winter!

I love the water & to live along these beautiful beaches of Saugatuck/Douglas along Lake Michigan, is a dream come true!

THIS IS WHERE I COME IN TO HELP WITH YOUR DECISION ! 

 

Most people retire near their current home, as we did.  We love Chicago & we can drive back in 2 hours or take the train from Holland, Michigan.  By the way, Holland, Michigan was ranked among the top best places to Retire in America . Check it out!  

Top-notch health care, loads of culture, lots of green space and low taxes!!!!!!

As a Real Estate Professional , I can help you by listening carefully to you envision your lives.  Maybe it's getting to know new people or pursuing an interest. Everyone has a story!  I can help you attain your goal of finding that perfect home here, in this unique area along the Lakeshore.

As we plan our scuba diving trips for this winter, there is no other place we would rather be then, Saugatuck/Douglas, Michigan.
