If this sounds like you

Four situations, in your own words.

“I’m handling a parent’s home from out of town.”

Steve is the local person: he coordinates the clean-out, estate sale, repairs, showings and closing, and sends a written update after every step so you are never guessing from 400 miles away.

“I’m on my own now, and the house is more than I want to manage.”

No rush and no pressure. We talk first about what you want next — a smaller place, closer to family, a community — and only then about the house. The plan is in writing and you set the pace.

Read: deciding what’s next

“We need to move to assisted living, and there’s a timeline.”

Placement help, a realistic schedule for the sale, and one person coordinating movers, clean-out and the community’s paperwork.

“I want to stay in my home, and I’m wondering what my equity could do.”

A plain explanation of a reverse mortgage — what it is, who it suits and who it does not — before any numbers. If it is not right for you, Steve will say so.

A letter from Steve

What you can expect, in writing.

Steve Uldall

SRES® CSA® CA DRE #00806283

To you and your family,

If you call this number you will reach me, not an office. Here is what you can expect.

What I will do. Listen first. Give you a written plan, a timeline and a fee schedule before anything is signed, and keep you informed in writing at every step.

What I will not do. Rush you, talk you into selling, or recommend a reverse mortgage or a community that is not right for you.

How I am paid. As a real estate agent, by commission at closing, stated in writing up front. Any referral arrangement is disclosed to you in writing before you decide.

This is the same letter you will receive on paper after our first conversation.

Steve Uldall, SRES®, CSA®

“A highly ethical business run by a personable, competent and responsible person. When a transaction is stressful or difficult count on this man to be there for you and make it work. I have known him for many years.”

Richard Gayton · Google review · May 2025

“Mr. Uldall has truly been a lifesaver. I found his company during an incredibly difficult time with having to sell a home to ensure that my loved one is taken care of for life with the proceeds. Steve was always very calm and professional, and he helped us to get the best possible deal.”

What happens, step by step

How an engagement works.

  1. A conversation

    At no cost and with no obligation, by phone or at your kitchen table.

    In writing: A one-page summary of what we discussed, if you want one.

  2. A plan

    What to do, in what order, on what schedule, and what it costs.

    In writing: The written plan, timeline and fee schedule, before anything is signed.

  3. The work

    Steve coordinates the clean-out, estate sale, repairs, movers and placement, and you approve every estimate.

    In writing: A weekly update, and every estimate before it is accepted.

  4. Closing, and after

    The sale closes, the move happens, and Steve calls at 30 days to make sure you are settled.
