Dovetail saved my life! When it was time for my mom to move out of her condo and into assisted living, I was in so far over my head, I had absolutely no idea what to do. Dovetail made everything easy. They helped my mother decide what she needed to keep, and knew the most advantageous ways to deal with what she wasn’t taking with her. They knew when and how to sell her home for the best advantage to us, and got the condo sold quickly, and for much more than we were expecting. Through all of that, Dovetail kept my mother involved so that she knew she was an integral part in the decisions being made. Overall, this was as pleasant an experience as possible, and I cannot say enough about how wonderful all the people at Dovetail have been. – Emily Poole, Adult Daughter
