Michigan Care Transition Real Estate Services

Love and care for them the way they did for you. Guiding you through selling and managing real estate to care for them. Built for adult caregivers.

For Families Caring For Aging Parents

When a parent needs more care, home decisions often follow. When someone you love starts needing help — whether it’s daily care, assisted living, or moving in with family — you step into a new role.

One that’s part caregiver, part organizer, and part decision-maker. And with that new role often comes one big question:

What do we do with the house?

At Dolinski Group, we specialize in helping families manage and sell a loved one’s home during major life transitions.
We understand how sensitive this stage can be — balancing emotional attachments, financial needs, and practical timing.

Our role is to make the real estate side simple, respectful, and well-organized. We help you:

  • Understand what options are available — from selling as-is to preparing for the market
  • Coordinate cleanout, updates, or staging with trusted local partners
  • Evaluate timing and pricing for a smooth, stress-free sale
  • Support out-of-state family members managing a Michigan property

Whether you’re still deciding what’s next or already planning a move, our goal is to remove the guesswork so your family can focus on caring, not coordinating.

Our approach blends real estate experience, estate planning knowledge, and organizational systems to make every step simpler and safer.

The transition rarely comes with a clear roadmap. We help bring clarity to the process through compassionate, practical guidance.

Specifically, our services our designed and built for situations like:

  • Power of attorney and conservatorships
  • Trusts, deeds, and title considerations
  • Long-term care funding and property value

We answer and solve questions like:

  • “The home is in a trust — can we sell now or later?”
  • “Mom moved into assisted living — we need to figure out what to do with her home.”
  • “I have Power of Attorney, but I’m not sure what that lets me sell the home.”
  • “I need help selling my parents home”

How It Works.

Share your situation and timelines.

Step 2: Plan

Step 3: Choose

List traditionally or explore as-is.

Step 4: Act

Stewardship & Sale. We move at your pace.

Built At The Crossroads of Care & Real Estate

Where most agents “dabble” or treat probate as “just another sale”, Dolinski is the only real estate group with a service model built around the unique needs of Michigan executors and families who need to sell real estate during life’s transitions, such as probate. We’re guiding families where most agents simply guess.

Grounded In Nursing

Our systems and business was developed by the founder, a registered nurse. We understand the emotional and practical realities of caring for aging parents.

People First.

We protect relationships as much as we protect value through our compassion over commission approach.

Values-Based Approach.

We measure success not just in sale price, but in how supported your family feels through the process.

Local Networks.

Based in Michigan, we work hand-in-hand with elder-law attorneys, care facilities, estate clean-out teams, and local service providers to create a smooth experience from start to finish.

Letter From The Founder

To Adult Caregivers

Before real estate, I was a registered nurse. I’ve stood beside families in hospital rooms, helped them make difficult care decisions, and witnessed firsthand the mix of love, guilt, and responsibility that comes with caring for aging parents. That experience shaped everything about how I serve families today. Nursing taught me that people don’t just need information — they need someone calm in the storm. Someone who can see the full picture: the emotions, the finances, the logistics, and the human side of transition. At Dolinski, that’s the heart of our approach. We bring the clinical clarity of nursing, the organization of case management, and the empathy of bedside care into every home transition. It’s not about rushing to list a property. It’s about caring for the family behind the sale. Because this isn’t just real estate — it’s caregiving in another form. And that’s something I understand deeply.

“Alex Craig is a total pro. There were some complexities to my situation, since I was selling a house remotely on behalf of my family, and Alex navigated it all seamlessly. He went the extra mile several times over and stuck with us every step of the way.”
– Mark D., Ohio Resident

Frequently Asked Questions

What About Trusts and Conservatorships?

The Dolinski Group also handles a lot of transactions inside of a trust or associated with conservatorships and power of attorneys. Often these are just different vehicles for dealing with an estate. We have experience selling real estate in many of these situations. Rest assured, our probate real estate services are also a good fit for those who need to sell their parents home.

When should we start preparing the home?

As soon as care discussions begin; early clarity prevents rushed decisions. Seek guidance from a qualified real estate agent in Michigan before deciding on repairs or updates to get the home sold.

Do you work with nursing homes or attorneys?

Yes, we coordinate directly with both. Plus, our experience in nursing makes us familiar with the care process, insurance and working with case managers.
