At North Point, we understand that moving isn’t always just about buying or selling a home—It’s often about life transitions.
That’s why we’re proud to introduce Next Nest Dallas, a service that simplifies senior moves. Marian Porter founded Next Nest after navigating the emotional and logistical challenges of moving her father into an independent living community.
Her personal experience inspired a thoughtful approach to senior moves. A process that focuses on comfort, dignity, and peace of mind for seniors and their families.
Marian Porter, Managing Partner of Next Nest Dallas
Starting Next Nest came from my own personal journey. When it was time to help my father move from our family
home of 50 years in Tulsa into an independent living apartment, our entire family was overwhelmed.
My sisters and I lived in Dallas, and trying to manage the process from afar seemed impossible—until we found a service that handled the logistics with compassion and care.
They helped us figure out what would actually fit in his new space, what to bring, and most importantly, how to make it feel like home from day one.
When my dad walked into his new apartment, his favorite pictures were already hung, his dishes were in the cabinet, and his recliner was exactly where he liked it. It wasn’t just a move—it was a warm welcome.
Because we didn’t have to rush through decisions or sort through decades of belongings under pressure, our family had the time and space to thoughtfully donate, plan an estate sale, and prepare the home for sale. The entire experience was peaceful, not chaotic.
And that’s exactly what we want to provide for other families through Next Nest Dallas. It’s not just about moving. It’s about honoring a life well-lived while making the next step a little easier for everyone.”

At Next Nest, we help older adults right-size their living space by thoughtfully translating their current home into a smaller space.
