Downsizing or assisted living · St. Louis
Moving to assisted living? We'll make selling the house the easy part.
Moving yourself or a parent into assisted living, memory care or a family member's home is a big, emotional change. The last thing anyone needs is months of showings and repairs. We'll buy the house as-is and time the closing around the move.
We understand what you're facing
Often it's an adult child making the call, juggling a parent's care, their own job and a house full of memories. We'll go at the family's pace, and we're glad to include siblings in every conversation.
Care costs can add up quickly, so many families want the house sold before or soon after the move. Others need a few months. Either works.
We help homeowners in this situation across St. Louis City, St. Louis County, St. Charles County, Jefferson County and St. Clair County, Illinois, including Florissant, Hazelwood, Ferguson, University City, Kirkwood, Webster Groves, Affton, Mehlville.

How we help
What selling to Brickyard looks like
- Closing timed to the move-in date, or later if the family needs more time.
- Take the furniture and keepsakes that are moving; leave the rest.
- We'll work with the family's attorney or power of attorney on signing.
- Patient, respectful conversations with every family member.
We inherited a property and had no idea what to do with it. From the first phone call these guys were nothing but patient and kind. They explained everything clearly, never pressured us, and made what could have been a really overwhelming process feel completely manageable.

Common questions
Can I sign for my parent?
Usually only with legal authority, such as a valid power of attorney. An attorney can confirm what's needed in your situation.
Does selling affect Medicaid or care benefits?
It can. Talk with an elder law attorney or benefits advisor before you sell.
Can we take our time clearing out the house?
Yes. You choose the closing date, and anything left behind is ours to handle.
