💬 Have you heard of the 40–70 Rule? It’s the idea that when adult children are around 40 and their parents are around 70, it’s time to start talking about the future.

There are a lot of things to discuss:
🏡 Near-term and long-term living preferences
💰 Estate and financial planning
🩺 Healthcare wishes and end-of-life decisions

These topics are notoriously hard to bring up. But having these important conversations before a crisis means decisions can be made calmly — not in the middle of stress or uncertainty.

✔ Wishes are clearly understood
✔ Independence is preserved longer
✔ Families avoid rushed, emotional decisions

As a real estate agent who specializes in seniors, I’ve worked with families who have had these conversations — and those who haven’t. The difference is often clear: when expectations and wishes are discussed early, these transitions tend to feel more manageable, thoughtful, and less overwhelming for everyone involved.

If you’re around this stage of life — or know these conversations still need to happen — consider this your gentle reminder to start.
