Spectrum identified a need for the seminars having seen an increase in the number of multi-generational addition/renovations projects aimed at accommodating older parents or grandparents into the family home. They’ve also seen an increase in the number of renovation projects intended to make residences safer, more functional and accessible for owners who wish to remain in their home as they age, or at least as long as possible.

“Families come to us with a project in mind, like an in-law suite, and they have questions about financing and overall feasibility,” says Don Dyrness, President of Spectrum. “We aim to provide a ‘one-stop shopping’ experience when it comes to the design and construction of your new home or addition/renovation. So bringing together a team of professionals to assist families through a major life transition like retirement and aging, gives us the ability to provide more resources and ultimately better service.”

The cadre of professionals who make up the self-proclaimed “Dream Team for Seniors” will present two additional seminars this spring: Planning Ahead: Finances, Taxes & More, April 12^th @ 7:00pm and Options for Care: In Home & Where Else to Turn, May 10^th @ 7:00pm.
