The challenge of downsizing on the Northern Beaches

Many people who move to the Northern Beaches find they never want to leave. So when the kids have left home and you want to downsize to something smaller, it's natural to look close to home. But what do you do when there isn't any suitable housing stock to buy?

In this episode with Amy Young from Laing & Simmons Avalon Beach, we explore the challenges and opportunities facing empty-nesters on the beaches. We look at the availability of suitable stock, canvas over 55s options and discuss how to manage your move with less stress.
