Taking the stress out of your move

McCarthy Stone retirement communities are all about enjoying life to the full, with company when you want it, help when you could use it and even care when you need it.

And you can enjoy this new lifestyle sooner than you might think, through our Part Exchange scheme and Smooth Move service.

Introducing the concept of Part Exchange

When you’ve chosen the retirement apartment you want, if it’s at a participating development, McCarthy Stone can buy your existing property as part of the overall sales process.

The McCarthy Stone Part Exchange scheme can bring you a number of great benefits. These include:

Certainty of move  - It’s like having a cash buyer

The sale won’t fall through due to issues with the property chain

You can retain access to your sold property for two weeks after completion

No Estate Agents fees to pay

Free Smooth Move removals service can help you de-clutter, pack and unpack

Introducing Smooth Move
