The Downsizing Plan
Sellers
A step-by-step plan built around your next home, not just this sale — what to keep, what to let go, what to fix (and what to skip), and a timeline that fits your life.
For seniors, downsizers & the families who help them
Selling a longtime family home is a life decision first and a real estate transaction second. Tamoy & Amiko help North Atlanta seniors and empty nesters sell with a clear plan, an honest price range, and options that let you move when you’re ready — even before the house sells.
Pick where you are right now — we’ll take it from there. No pressure, no obligation.

Combined days three North Atlanta homes sat unsold with other agents — one for 294 days across three separate listings. Priced honestly and marketed properly, Tamoy & Amiko sold every one of them. Two went under contract the very first day.

Sellers
Find out what your home is realistically worth and how much you’d actually walk away with. We give you a realistic range — some agents inflate a price just to win the listing, then watch it sit.

Prefer to skip repairs, showings, and uncertainty? We’ll bring you multiple cash offers to compare side-by-side with a traditional sale, so you can choose with your eyes open.
Sellers & families
When the right next home — or a care community — is ready before your house is sold, there are ways to move first and sell on a calmer schedule. We’ll walk you through them.
Ask us about our seller programs, including Your Home Sold Guaranteed or I’ll Buy It*, our Cancellation Guarantee, and Certified Pre-Owned Homes. *Programs are subject to conditions and current brokerage-approved terms — we’ll give you the full details in writing before you decide anything.
Most families we help aren’t stuck on whether to move. They’re stuck on timing: a senior community has an opening now, a health change won’t wait, or the money for the next step is tied up in the house — while the house needs weeks of sorting, decisions, and showings.
We don’t inflate a price to win a listing. We give a realistic range — and then we sell it. Three recent examples:
A longtime family home in Roswell, listed by Tamoy & Amiko and now under contract. This is the work we do across North Atlanta — Alpharetta, Roswell, and the surrounding communities.
Case results sourced from FMLS, Georgia MLS and MyStateMLS listing records; ALTA settlement statement (Laurelwood); closing statement (Slick Stone). Past results are examples of our pricing approach, not a promise of a specific outcome for any other home.
A husband-and-wife team — so the people you meet at your kitchen table are the people who handle your sale, start to finish.
Calm seas make every captain look good. It’s the difficult markets — and the difficult moments — where experience actually matters. We lead with empathy, explain every option in plain language, and never pressure a family into a timeline that isn’t theirs.
Tamoy usually takes the first call: understanding your situation, your timing, and what a good outcome looks like for your family — then building the plan to get there.
Amiko leads the sale itself: preparation, pricing, negotiation, and communication from contract to closing — so nothing about your move is left to chance.
We sit down — at your home or by phone — and talk through your situation: the house, the timing, and where you’re headed next. Family members are welcome to join, in person or on the call.
An honest value range, what you’d net from a traditional sale versus cash offers, and — if timing is the problem — how moving first could work. Everything explained before you decide.
Preparation, pricing, marketing, negotiation, and closing — coordinated by Tamoy & Amiko personally, with updates your whole family can follow. You make the decisions; we do the heavy lifting.
Many of our senior sales start with a call from an adult child — sometimes from across the country. We’re used to it, and we’re set up for it:
Usually not. This is the most common concern we hear, and it’s exactly what our partner ElderLife Financial helps families think through. Their Financial Concierge® looks at every resource — the home, VA benefits, insurance, home equity — and their bridge financing exists so a move doesn’t have to wait on a closing date. We’ll make the introduction and coordinate both sides.
No. Many longtime homes sell beautifully with light preparation, and some are better sold as-is to a cash buyer. We’ll tell you honestly which repairs would pay for themselves and which wouldn’t — then the choice is yours.
We always work from a realistic range of your home’s value, backed by recent comparable sales we’ll show you. Some agents exaggerate a home’s worth just to win the listing — the home then sits for months while the price chases the market down. The three homes in our results section above are what that looks like, and what happened when they were priced honestly instead.
Most failed listings fail on price, preparation, or follow-through — all fixable. We start with a straight diagnosis of why your home didn’t sell, then relaunch with the right price, proper presentation, and our own buyer database. Unsold homes are a big part of what we do.
Then you change them. Ask us about our Cancellation Guarantee and how our seller programs work before you sign anything — you’ll get the terms in writing, from the brokerage’s current approved language. A decision this big should never feel like a trap.
Please do. Plenty of families talk with us a year or more before they sell. An early conversation costs nothing, and it makes the eventual move far less stressful. Call (678) 252-5093 whenever you’re ready to think out loud.
Tell us a little about your situation. We’ll reply personally — usually the same business day — and there’s never any obligation.
Your message is on its way to Tamoy & Amiko. We’ll reply personally within one business day — and there’s never any obligation. Need us sooner? Call (678) 252-5093.
