For many people, the move to a senior apartment begins with a lighter heart and a heavier question: what do we do with the house?
The Landing is a 54-unit senior apartment building between downtown Chaska and the Minnesota River, at 1st Street and Chestnut Street, with amenities like an outdoor patio, garden plots and trail access.
If you or a parent are thinking about a move like this, I can help with the home you’re leaving.
Downtown at your door
Firemen’s Park, the Chaska Curling Center and the Chaska Event Center are close, along with downtown’s shops and restaurants. See downtown Chaska and Chaska parks and trails.
What to think about before you sell
- Timing: Decide whether you want to sell before or after you move. Each has trade-offs for money, stress and storage.
- Downsizing: Sorting a lifetime of belongings takes longer than most people expect. Start early, one room at a time.
- Light repairs: You don’t need to remodel. A few smart fixes and good presentation usually matter more.
- People you trust: Bring them into the conversation early, so decisions feel shared, not rushed.
A simple plan for your Chaska move
I’ve been helping people sell and buy homes for about two decades. I’ve walked many people through this exact kind of move, and I know how to make it gentler.
Getting the house ready, or making it yours
If you’re selling and want repairs handled before buyers see them, Super Crew Contractors can give you an estimate. If you’re ready for something custom, Ivy Lane Homes does luxury home building and remodeling. And a quick coverage check with Intrinsic Insurance before closing can save you a surprise.
