This is a research-based decision support tool for older people thinking about their homes and what will work for them into the future.
The tool reflects three years of research and development with older people and the many services used by older people.

The tool is independent. It does not promote any product or company.

The research has been undertaken by independent researchers at CRESA, Public Policy & Research, Katoa, and the University of Auckland. You can find more about the Find the Best Fit research and other home and house related research for older people at www.goodhomes.co.nz.
Description
Description
Thinking about the future is complex. Older people are bombarded with often contradictory advice and information. This tool helps people to work through information and guides them as to the sort of 'homework' they might need to do to think about options.
Solutions are often promoted (and accepted) BEFORE the real issues are identified. Starting with a solution (whether it is moving or staying) means alternatives and better solutions can be missed.
