Master Your Move

THURSDAY, April 16
2:00 P.M.

There’s a lot that goes into making the move to a senior living community. While it can seem like a daunting endeavor, it doesn’t have to be. That’s why we’ve invited the senior move specialists at Segues to share their expert insights on how to declutter and right-size, as well as their strategies on deciding what to keep, what to sell, and how to sell it.

During the event, Segues organizational experts will show you why getting organized can be the key to making more room for what you love, and will offer practical strategies for every phase of the process. They’ll also take time to unpack any questions you may have along the way. Then, before you go, you can find out more about Cedar Crest and take a tour.  That way, on top of feeling equipped to master your move, you’ll have a clear picture of all the ways our community continues inspiring residents to live their lives to the fullest.
