Your North Idaho Ambassador, 2.0
Sharon D. Hallinan in Her Encore Role: REALTOR ®
Retirement can come at any age -- by choice or by circumstance. It can be planned or unplanned. It can come earlier than expected or right on schedule. Maybe, you’re planning a phased retirement and working part-time for a while. Maybe you’ve unretired (returned to the workforce) and now are planning to retire once again. Circumstances regarding retirement can vary greatly — to say the least — and can change over time.
As a member of the 55+ community, working my 2nd act as a REALTOR ®, I understand that sometimes, you need to retire early even if you weren’t ready. As a retired teacher and school administrator, I know the value of living in a location and home that meets your needs, both now and in the future. Planning for the life you want to live in your retirement takes time, effort, research and resources. Sometimes, your plans change unexpectedly and you have to pivot. Whatever the case, we’re here to help.
