Expert downsizing resources distinguish The Sierra Group

Selling a home “naturally” comes with its own set of challenges – readying it for sale, showing it to potential buyers, contracts and financial paperwork, packing up to move … the list sometimes seems endless.

If your sale is centered on downsizing into a smaller home, the process can be even more daunting because it usually involves a lot of emotion tied around a transition to a new phase of life.

This is where The Sierra Group can help. The company offers the fastest, most convenient way to sell one’s house, “as is,” for a fair price, and on the date of the seller’s choosing.

“Providing honest solutions and solving any problems that arise for this type of sale is paramount,” said Ben Souchek, a principle in the company. “Unfortunately, there are a number of companies out there that are not so transparent, or do not provide much information to the seller. We do everything we can to set ourselves apart in the market.”

Among the benefits The Sierra Group provides are taking care of any needed repairs, allowing sellers to leave behind anything they can’t or do not want to take with them, using private funds to close escrow when it is convenient for the seller, moving flexibility, and no commissions or closing costs.

“I’ve been in the home-buying business for 19 years, and with so many baby boomers retiring in huge numbers, coupled with more and more seniors looking to sell their home in order to downsize into smaller homes, apartments, assisted living or a nursing home, I had to try to do things to set my company apart,” Souchek said. “I set very high standards of professionalism and honesty for this business, and overall, sellers seem to really appreciate the benefits that we can offer, and for good reason.”

Souchek said that education is key, which is why he wrote “The Secrets to Downsizing.” The book provides great information for anyone thinking of downsizing, whether they have done it before, if they have never sold a house and don’t know what’s in store for them. They can learn from the book, in addition to the company’s videos, PowerPoint presentations and infomercials.

“Whether you are concerned about the buying or selling aspect, are not sure where to start your new neighborhood search, we can put you in touch with the appropriate people. We’ve accumulated many contacts over the years we’ve been in business, and our network is ever-expanding.”

Souchek and his team work with a large number of real estate agents who specialize in, and/or have their ears to the ground on a wide array of residential options.

“Every buyer and seller is different,” said Souchek, “so we address our concern for the individual by visiting with our clients and finding out more about their goals, and how we can help them with the moving process. The transition should be painless, and we’re interested in helping them through as many steps of the process as we can.”

According to Souchek, the testimonials he has received and those that are posted on his website speak for themselves:

“Having sold our house to Ben Souchek, I can honestly say it was the easiest transaction we’ve gone thru in quite some time. Ben has been up front and has done exactly everything he said he would do. It’s not often you run across someone these days that does this and is willing to help in any way he can. Our experience with Ben has been nothing but positive.” – Richard & Nelda T.

“As Gordon and I embark on a new phase in our lives we have Ben & Sierra Group to thank for this blessing. We have sold three homes and have never been treated with such an informative & caring way as Ben exudes. He saved us so much grief (going through regular real estate procedures). Ben’s way & the highway was the best way.” – Gordon & Mrs. H.

“We highly encourage anyone who is thinking about downsizing to come to us first to see what resources we have available,” Souchek said. “It’s critical to have access to the resources that will make the process as easy as possible. We’ll use our network to get you in touch with the information you need, and can assist you every step of the way!”
