👵 A Smarter, Safer Way for Seniors to Navigate Life Transitions
For many Bergen County homeowners, deciding how and when to downsize or relocate in retirement can feel overwhelming. It’s not just a financial decision — it’s an emotional and lifestyle one.
That’s why Scott Selleck, a Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES®) with over 32 years of Northern New Jersey experience, has joined forces with Financial Advisor Jason Fink to offer a holistic, client-first solution for seniors navigating these major life changes.
This partnership bridges two essential areas of expertise — housing strategy and financial planning — helping older adults transition with clarity, confidence, and peace of mind.
🏡 Why Housing & Financial Planning Go Hand-in-Hand
Selling a longtime home isn’t just about moving — it’s about ensuring that move aligns with your financial goals, retirement income, and long-term security.
Together, Scott and Jason guide clients through every stage of the process:
-
Evaluate current home value and timing based on Bergen County market trends.
-
Project future housing costs — whether buying, renting, or moving to a senior community.
-
Integrate sale proceeds into a retirement plan that maintains financial stability.
-
Address tax and wealth considerations linked to home sales, inheritances, or estate planning.
By working collaboratively, they ensure that each real estate move supports your broader financial picture, not just your next address.
