How to Maximize Your Equity When Rightsizing This Summer

If you're like many homeowners in Central Ohio, your home has grown quieter as the kids have moved out—and bigger than you really need. Rightsizing (not just downsizing) is becoming a smart move for those looking to simplify, reduce costs, and invest in a lifestyle that fits their current chapter.

Here’s how to maximize your equity and make rightsizing feel like an upgrade:

1. Understand the Value of Your Home

Home equity in Central Ohio has surged over the past few years. Before making any decisions, request a detailed home equity report so you understand how much buying power you truly have.

2. Redefine What “Smaller” Means

Rightsizing isn’t about losing space—it’s about gaining the right space. That might mean:

• ·         Fewer stairs

• ·         Open-concept living

• ·         First-floor primary suites

• ·         Lower utility bills and maintenance

It’s not less—it’s smarter.

3. Time It Right

Summer is peak selling season. With tight inventory, well-staged homes often sell fast and at top dollar. This is your chance to list high while still having solid buying options in new builds, condos, or modern townhomes.

4. Leverage My “Stress-Free Rightsizing” Plan
