Encore Transition Advisory is a private advisory firm specialising in high-value downsizing and $5M+ principal residence transitions for homeowners aged 55+.
We work with individuals and couples preparing to downsize — navigating significant financial and lifestyle change before selling the family home, purchasing the next residence, or deciding how released capital should be structured.
The focus is simple: create clarity before the market is engaged.
Independent.
No commissions.
No product sales.
Full transparency.
For many established homeowners, a large portion of personal wealth sits inside the family home. Downsizing is not just about moving — it involves releasing capital, reshaping how you want to live, and making decisions that are difficult to reverse once completed.
At this stage, everything feels connected. Selling, buying, reallocating funds and planning the next chapter rarely happen in isolation. Without a clear plan and defined structure, momentum can build quickly — and once the market is engaged, decisions are often made before the broader implications have been fully considered.
During a principal residence transition, multiple professionals are often involved — real estate agents, accountants, financial planners and solicitors. Each plays an important role. Yet no one is typically responsible for stepping back and ensuring every decision fits together before action begins.
Encore Transition Advisory sits above the transaction — not replacing trusted advisers, but working alongside them to bring cohesion to the process. We operate within their guidance to ensure property decisions align with your broader financial position and future plans.
We are not transaction-driven. The role is not to sell — it is to help you think clearly, establish a structured plan and defined boundaries so you can move forward calmly during one of the most significant financial and lifestyle decisions of later life.
The name Encore reflects this stage: not an ending, but the intentional design of what comes next.
The foundation of our work is a dedicated three-hour advisory engagement designed to create clarity before action — defining financial boundaries, establishing timing and sequencing decisions, and reducing exposure to reactive market pressure.
Ideally completed before the home is listed or an offer is made on your next residence.
For established homeowners aged 55+ navigating complex, high-value downsizing decisions.
