What needs to be considered and how we at Wienroth Immobilien GmbH & Co. KG in Jena can support you.
Selling a home can be a complex and emotional process, made even more difficult when the owner suffers from dementia. As experienced estate agents, we at Wienroth Immobilien GmbH & Co KG in Jena understand the unique challenges associated with selling a house when you have dementia. We are at your side with comprehensive expertise and sensitive support. Here are the most important aspects you should consider, as well as our special support services.
Important aspects when selling a house with dementia
1. legal requirements
- Capacity to consent: The first step is to determine whether the owner concerned has legal capacity. This means that they understand the implications of their actions and can therefore conclude a legally valid contract. A medical assessment by a specialist can provide clarity here.
- Care and powers of attorney: If the person concerned no longer has legal capacity, a legal guardian must be appointed or an existing power of attorney must be used. The guardian acts in the best interests of the person concerned and must often obtain the authorisation of the guardianship court for the sale of the house.
- Authorisation from the guardianship court: A sale by the carer usually requires the approval of the guardianship court. This measure ensures that the sale is in the best interests of the person under guardianship and that a fair and reasonable sale price is achieved.
2 Emotional and practical challenges
- Emotional value of the property: Houses often have a high emotional value for the owners and their families. It is important to treat this aspect sensitively and take into account the needs and feelings of all parties involved.
- Support for relatives: Relatives play a central role in the sales process and should be actively involved. Transparent and open communication is crucial here in order to avoid misunderstandings and build trust.
