A softer way through a hard transition

A Simple Nest guides you through all steps of the senior transition process from start to finish. Our insured, bonded concierge service professionally supports you through a stressful situation with warmth and compassion. Whether you are struggling with the next steps after a loved one has passed or helping them search for their next home, you can count on A Simple Nest to be your trusted advisor.

From the first visit to the last signature

It all starts with a visit. I come to the home, we walk through it together, and we talk about everything that is ahead. Together, we will decide what to do with the home, where your loved one will move, and every step in between.

    Selling the home

    I am a licensed agent with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Ambassador Real Estate. When the house is ready to sell, I handle the photos, the pricing, and the listing. Your loved one's home is usually the family's largest asset and I make sure to treat it that way.

    Senior relocation and downsizing

    Together, we will make the best decision for where your loved one will move to, what belongings will go with them, and how to transport all the items safely. I will help sort the rooms, pack, hire movers, and ensure the new home is perfectly arranged so your loved one feels at peace as soon as they arrive.

  • Packed boxes on the floor of a cleared living room.

    Clean outs and donations

    Once the move is done, I will help with leftover items. This may include donations, an estate sale, or other appropriate actions depending on the situation.

How it works

Gentle steps, at your pace

Everyone moves through this situation differently. In my experience, steps usually unfold in the following order:

  1. 01

    The visit

    When you call me, we will discuss the situation, and I will arrange a time to come by for a home visit. We will then walk through the house and discuss options. The conversation will not end until you are comfortable with the next steps and we have a plan to move forward.

  2. 02

    The new home

    The first decision we make is where your loved one will move to. I will connect you with a senior placement advisor who tours communities with you at no cost. I will accompany you on these visits if appropriate. We don't move on to the third step until the best new home has been chosen.

  3. 03

    Selecting items to make the move

    During this step, we will slowly go through your loved one's home. It's important to consider your loved one's feelings as they are often deeply connected to their belongings, making this an emotional and often difficult process. We talk about what matters, what will fit, and what your loved one wants to take with them.

  4. 04

    Clearing the home

    Once items have been chosen to make the move, we go through the rest. We will decide if an estate sale is needed or if we can donate the remainder of the items. This can be a slow or a quick process depending on the situation, but I always go at your pace.

  5. 05

    Listing the house

    Once the house is cleaned out, I will help take photos, price it competitively, and list it. Again, this process can go as quickly or as slowly as you and your loved ones need it to. I always work with your time frame and comfort level.

Lisa Hubschman, founder of A Simple Nest

Why I started A Simple Nest

My name is Lisa Hubschman and I was born and raised in Omaha. I am a proud Marian High School graduate and spent part of my career as a flight attendant with Eastern and American Airlines. This experience helped me learn how to keep people calm during any stressful situation and I find I use this skill almost every day as a real estate agent.

I have been helping families through moves like this for about eighteen years. In 2018, I obtained my real estate license and started A Simple Nest so I could help with the entire senior transition process. This has been my calling ever since I lost my grandmother and parents and had to grapple with the difficult situation of what to do with their homes. My mother, Marylee Hubschman, was also a real estate agent and I am happy to follow in her footsteps.

Kind words from families

  • Lisa, how can we begin to thank you for all that you did to make our move go smoothly. You were a very special angel God sent to help us during this difficult time. We are so glad we are now friends and hope we can stay in touch.
  • Lisa and staff are amazing if you're looking for anyone to help with aging parents. My dad and his wife used her services last year and couldn't have been happier. She has many connections and helps you through life changes. She gained my Dad's trust, which if you know my Dad, you'd understand the accomplishment.
    Kathleen W.
  • Lisa is an exceptional organizer! She helped us prepare to move; what a lifesaver. She was very helpful as we decluttered and purged before our home was for sale, and then she helped us pack everything on a very tight timeline.
    Wyn WaLynda S.
  • Lisa is a life saver! She is super organized and accountable. She is very empathetic and makes what can be a very stressful event easier.
    Brenda G.
  • Lisa is amazing. Her help was worth every penny when my mom and in-laws moved. Super grateful her company exists!
    Kay A. H.
  • Lisa is outstanding at providing the services needed for elderly moving. She helped smooth out the process despite all the difficulties associated with senior moving and packing. If you need help with your elderly parents moving, sorting, packing- and everything in between- look no further!
    Denise B.
  • Lisa truly is the best when it comes to meeting your families needs. From start to finish she will make sure the moving process is smooth and easy. From the packing to unpacking and placement of your items. She is always going above and beyond to make sure you are satisfied with your move. I would definitely recommend her to all my family and friends.
    Courtney W.
  • Outstanding! I would never use another company. Lisa handles the transition of my loved one from the home to their new community and helps decorate with the loved one. There is a new friendship/bond formed. She handles the clean out of the home and then sells the home. There is no need to work with anyone else. Lisa has a inner network and is able to partner to resolve any need. Kudos for the best company in business today.
    Brian M.
  • Lisa was amazing. She really bonded with my father-in-law and helped him determine what was really important to him when determining what to move to his new apartment. Sometimes family has a hard time not “telling” their family member what they don’t need or shouldn’t want. With all those details taken care of, the move was really easy. I highly recommend A Simple Nest for downsizing and relocating.
    Dianne G. B.
  • Lisa is a very caring person who can help you with senior care, along with downsizing and packing. I highly recommend her, she very organized and efficient. She one if a kind
    Beth D.
  • Lisa was a God send on two separate occasions. I have spent many days with her that could have been miserable. She takes charge with such grace. From, packing, setting up movers, great recommendation to another professional to help get my parents in the perfect assisted living facility for them. If Lisa can’t take care of all your needs she has a wealth of resources that will complete the job. I would recommend her to anyone planning a move or selling their home.
    Diane V.
  • Lisa is calm, caring, organized and can help put you at ease in an overwhelming situation. Lisa helped me get my parents' home ready for sale. A home that had many items since 1958! Not an easy task, but she was able to help lay out the steps, get me started on the checklist and finish the work. It was not only a physical process, but an emotional one as well. She is a good listener! Thank you Lisa for making this process go much easier and smoothly. She also has contacts for everything!
    Michelle M.
  • Lisa offers the perfect services at the perfect time. Moving a parent from their house to a communal living facility like independent living or nursing home entails so much more than you might think. You quickly realize that being there for your parent is your most important roll as opposed to making all the arrangements it takes to disperse a lifetime of possessions and earmarking only the things they will be taking with them to their much smaller living space. Then there are the details of moving and selling the house. Lisa comes in with grace, compassion and often humor and takes all those things off your plate so you can concentrate on your parent’s well being in this unique transitional time. She has all her trusted and vetted contacts from movers to cleaners to haulers to stagers, sellers and donators/charities. She is also your realtor and so all of this works seamlessly with the timing just right. She sold mom’s house in a day for a lot more over asking price. This may not be everyone’s experience but it was ours. We can not recommend Lisa more. You may not realize how much you need her services until you’re in the middle of it. We didn’t know what we didn’t know but we were so lucky to have her onboard with us from the start. Thank you Lisa!

  • Lisa is one of the most compassionate people I know. Not only is she a fantastic realtor but she also has become the "go-to" professional for seniors who are selling their homes and relocating. She helps with it all so that transitioning from a home to an assisted living facility or simpler lifestyle is stress-free.
