Waiting for aged care is hard on families.

Government data shows the average wait to receive aged care services was around a year between November 2025 and March 2026.

For some families, that time is spent worrying. For others, it is a chance to have the conversations that are easy to postpone. Where will Mum or Dad live? What happens to the house? Who helps sort everything out?

You don't need all the answers. Our guide to the five things to do before helping a parent move to aged care covers the conversation, the belongings and what to do about the family home.

Just been named executor, and the family home is part of the estate? Where do you even start?

You are not alone, and you don't have to work it all out in a day. Selling a property after someone has died has its own steps. Knowing them in advance takes some of the pressure off.

We've put together a practical guide: the top five things executors need to do for a deceased estate.

If you've inherited a family home, or think you might one day, there's a recent change to tax rules worth knowing about.

Earlier this year, the Australian Tax Office updated the rules around tax on inherited properties.

The short version: whether your family faces a tax bill when the home is eventually sold can now depend on the exact wording of the will. Specifically, whether it clearly states who has the right to live there.

For some families, this means an unexpected bill they weren't prepared for. Not because anything was done wrong, but just because the rules quietly changed.

If you're currently managing a loved one's estate, or you simply like to plan ahead, it's worth a conversation with your accountant or solicitor before any decisions are made about the property.

Scout Corp helps families navigate the property side of a deceased estate. Practical support, at what's often a really difficult time.

Every year in Australia, $40 million in gifts meant for charities never reach them.

Not because people changed their minds. But because somewhere along the way, the process broke down.

If you've ever thought about leaving something to a cause you love, the intention alone isn't always enough. When property is part of an estate: a family home, a piece of land, things can get more complicated than people expect. Delays, legal hurdles, or a sale that isn't handled carefully can quietly erode a gift that was meant to matter.

At Scout Corp, part of what we do is make sure that doesn't happen. When property is involved in an estate that includes a charitable gift, we help ensure it's handled with the care it deserves. So the causes your loved one wanted to support actually benefit.

Is there a charity or cause you'd want to support through your estate? We'd love to hear about it in the comments. đź’™

Something we tell our clients surprises them. Sometimes the answer is - don’t sell yet.

We’re a property agency. Our business depends on successful sales. And sometimes the most valuable thing we can do for a family is tell them the timing isn’t right, and here’s what to do in the meantime.

A sale the happens before a family is ready. Before the right conversations. Before the financial implications are understood, can create more problems than it solves.

Our team has spent years building a practice around getting this right. Not just moving property, but supporting decisions that lead to the right outcome for the whole family.

That’s the difference between a transaction and a transition.

If this is the territory your family is approaching, we’d love to talk. No pressure, no pitch - just a conversation

There’s a moment most families recognise.

You open a cupboard in your parent’s home, or a wardrobe, or a spare room - and you realise you have no idea where to start.

It’s not just the stuff. It’s knowing every object in there has a story, and you don’t know which ones matter. You don’t know what to keep, what to donate, what to throw away, or what your parent would be heartbroken to see go.

So you close the cupboard. And you come back next weekend. And it happens again.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not failing at this. It’s genuinely hard. Made harder because there’s usually something more urgent happening at the same time. A health situation. A move. A decision about aged care.

This is exactly where we come in. Not just with property advice, but with a structured way through the whole transition.

You don’t have to figure it out alone. 💙

Is your family navigating the question of aged care for a parent?
It’s one of the most emotionally complex transitions a family can go through. The practical side of it, especially what happens to the family home, often catches people off guard.

Our Director, Sam Mills, has written a practical guide to help: 5 things to do before a parent moves into aged care. It covers the honest conversations, the belongings, the property decisions, the paperwork, and who to bring into your corner.

If this is territory your family is approaching- or will be - it’s worth a read

Most families think selling an inherited property is like any other property sale… it isn’t.

Here are 6 questions worth answering before you list. Getting clear on these before you list doesn’t slow things down. But it does prevent the delays that cost estates time and money.

Supporting a family through an estate sale? We’re here to help with the property side

Have you ever helped a parent sort through a lifetime of belongings before a move, and wondered if there was a better way to do it?

There’s a concept called Swedish Death Cleaning that’s been quietly changing the way families approach this. Despite the name, it has nothing to do with death, and everything to do with love, care and not leaving the people you love with an impossible job.

Our Director, Sam, has written about it on the Scout Corp blog. This framework sits at the heart of how we work with families navigating property transitions. Whether that’s a parent moving to aged care, a deceased estate, or simply planning ahead.

Last week our Director, Samantha Mills, was invited to speak at Cranbrook Residences, Bella Vista - and what a special morning it was đź’™

Sam shared her Swedish Death Cleaning framework with a group of people exploring the transition into retirement living. It’s a conversation about sorting through what matters, simplifying life, and planning ahead with intention. One every family benefits from starting early.

Thank you to the team Cranbrook Residences Bella Vista for opening your doors and creating such a warm and welcoming space for this conversation. We’re so grateful for this opportunity
