- Abstract
When you've lived your dreams, it's time for new ones. The 4-bed, 2-bath home you loved ... the pool you couldn't get the kids out of ... they've had their day. Downsizing isn't about living in a tiny home - unless you want to - it's not about square metres; it's about rightsizing your home for the next chapter in life. It's time to make a move that takes care of you now and for the future. Let Noel and Rachel guide you through the legal and financial maze, explain how a move can affect your lifestyle, superannuation, pension and benefits, and share some real life stories from readers. Whether you're moving to a townhouse or apartment in a strata development, considering a granny flat, tiny house or mod pod with family, looking at co-housing with lifelong friends, or making the move to a retirement community, listen to the experts, and make it a successful move.
