Move Coordinators for Seniors

Thank you for visiting our website!


We have been friends since 2002 and worked together for 10 years in the Real Estate Industry. 
 In 2014 we came together to form Changing Places, LLC when we realized the need for a professional, compassionate service to transition Seniors to homes more suitable for their current lifestyle.
