Moving isn’t just about boxes and trucks—it’s about decisions, timing, and everything you own.

In this episode of The Wilton Report, Josh sits down with John Walsh, founder of Walsh Senior Solutions, to break down what really makes moving so overwhelming—and how to do it the right way.

After helping over 3,500 families declutter, downsize, and transition into new homes, John shares the biggest mistakes people make before moving, how clutter impacts your home’s value, and what you should be doing months before you ever list your home.

If you’re thinking about moving, downsizing, or preparing your home for sale, this is what you need to know.

Thinking about moving to Hopewell NJ? Wondering if it’s a good alternative to Princeton or one of the best towns in Mercer County to buy a home? In this video, I break down the top 10 things buyers need to know before moving to Hopewell, New Jersey.

A lot of buyers don’t realize that “Hopewell” isn’t just one place—it includes Hopewell Township, Hopewell Borough, and Pennington, each with a completely different lifestyle, housing options, and price points. If you’re relocating to Central New Jersey or getting priced out of Princeton, this is one of the most important areas to understand before you buy.

I also walk through:

- What kind of homes you can actually get in Hopewell (and how it compares to Princeton)

- Why buyers are moving here for more space and better value

- The reality of commuting to NYC and Philadelphia

- How the Hopewell Valley Regional School District compares to nearby towns

- The lifestyle tradeoffs (privacy vs convenience)

- Who Hopewell is actually a good fit for—and who it’s not

If you're trying to figure out whether Hopewell fits your lifestyle, commute, and budget, this will give you a clear answer before you make a move.

Thinking about moving to Montgomery Township, NJ? Watch this first.

In this episode of The Wilton Report, we break down 10 things buyers don’t fully understand until after they’ve moved — including the Princeton zip code effect, school district demand, neighborhood differences, and the reality of property taxes.

Here’s what you need to know:

📍 Princeton Zip Code Effect – How a Princeton mailing address impacts Montgomery pricing.

🎓 Top-Rated Schools – 2 elementary, 2 middle, 1 high school (~4,400–4,600 students, 11:1 ratio).

💰 Property Taxes Explained – Around $20K/year? ~65% schools, ~15% town, ~18% county, ~2% open space/fire.
