If you’re preparing to sell a home in Coupeville to help fund care for yourself or a loved one, you're not alone. Whether it’s assisted living, memory care, or in-home support, the cost of senior care can add up quickly—and for many families, selling a home is the most realistic way to cover those expenses.

At Team Kelli Lang, we understand that this decision often comes during an emotional and stressful time. Our goal is to guide Coupeville families through the selling process with compassion, clarity, and proven local expertise.

1. Selling a Home for Senior Care Is More Common Than You Think

More and more Coupeville residents are facing the need to:

• Pay for long-term care or assisted living

• Downsize to a more manageable home or community

• Help an aging parent transition safely and affordably

Your home’s equity can be a powerful financial tool—but accessing it through a sale takes planning.

2. Understand the Type of Care and Costs Involved

Before listing the home, it helps to get a clear idea of:

• What level of care is needed (independent, assisted, memory care, etc.)

• Whether care will be private pay, Medicaid-funded, or a combination

• The monthly cost of care and expected duration

💡 Team Kelli Lang can refer you to trusted local senior care advisors to help with this part of the journey.

3. Timing Matters—But You Have Options

Sometimes families need to sell quickly to cover immediate care costs. Other times, a more gradual move is possible. We’ll work with you to:

✅ Set a timeline that meets your needs

✅ Coordinate the sale alongside any estate or trust considerations

✅ Connect you with estate sale and downsizing services if needed

Whether you need to sell now or plan ahead, we’re here to walk alongside you.

4. What About Capital Gains Taxes or Medicaid Eligibility?

If the home is your or your loved one’s primary residence, capital gains exemptions may apply. If Medicaid assistance is needed, the home sale could affect eligibility.

Before listing, it’s wise to speak with:

• A tax advisor or CPA

• An elder law attorney

• A financial planner

We work with a trusted local network and can connect you with the right professionals to help protect your family's long-term financial picture.
