How to Stay in Your Home as You Age - and What to Do If You Can't

Potomac Community Village calls on an expert to help answer one of life's key questions at its April 14th meeting.

Eric Stewart, one of the top associate real estate brokers in the nation, and highly respected in the DC Metro area, shares his strategies for keeping one's home easy to manage, and a place of comfort, familiarity and safety as we age. In addition, he hopes to provide PCV attendees with the tools they need to step forward into new and rewarding aspects of their lives. The program, How to Stay in Your Home As You Age – and What to Do if You Can’t, is free and open to all. While admission is free, tax-deductible donations to Potomac Community village are very much appreciated.

"We all need to know how to keep our stories and memories alive, while preserving and passing on our memorabilia and treasures to the next generation. That is how we continue to make room for ourselves and our changing lifestyles," Stewart tells us.

When a change in living status must take place, however, Stewart focuses on how to judge the best timing for making that change, how to ensure the top financial gains and how to do it all with the least amount of stress and hassle.

With a lifelong commitment to community and social good, Stewart has founded the non-profit, Widow Care, serving widows and widowers in distress. He also draws on his over 28 years of experience for his listeners on WMAL radio every Sunday morning. Stewart says he has learned from his grandfather and father, both renowned physicians, to make absolute commitment to the best interest of the patient inform his thinking and record of achievement.

PCV's April 14th meeting takes place from 7-9 pm at The Bolger Center's Franklin Building, 9800 Newbridge Drive, Potomac. Please use Parking Lot #1.
