We provide a smorgasbord of products and services with competence, friendliness and a genuine desire to help people get through their tasks at hand. We offer domestic and international shipping via FedEx, UPS, DHL and the US Postal Service. We also (legally) ship wine to most US States. We provide document services including copy, scan, print, shred, fax, notary public and more. We have commercial receiving services through our mailbox rentals, both physical and virtual mailboxes. Our expertise extends to packaging high value and very fragile items such as artwork or personal items of great sentimental value. We convert video and scan photos and slides to digital formats, helping to preserve them for future generations to see. We provide passport photos for any country in the world and help our clients through the passport renewal process. We even duplicate keys. We have a good selection of boxes and packing materials available for those “do it yourselfers”, however most of our clients just bring us their “stuff” and have us professionally pack it for them. Need some printer paper, tape or office supplies? We have that too! For businesses, we provide commercial printing of all types and direct mail services. We also offer fulfilment services for multiple shipments; just bring us the items and an address list and we take care of the rest.

Senior Living Placement Services

Inspired Senior Advisors

  1. Mike Scoggin, CSA

  2. Los Gatos, CA 95032

  3. (650) 933-0017

  4. E-Mail: Mike@InspiredSeniorAdvisors.com

  5. Web Page: www.InspiredSeniorAdvisors.com

  6. Bio: Having spent my early career in electronics, I decided in 2015 to become the expert consultant for all styles and levels of Senior Living in the Bay Area.  That includes Retirement (55+ Active Adult) Communities, Independent Living, Assisted Living, CCRC, and Memory Care Communities, as well as Board-and-Care homes and Affordable/Below Market Rate senior housing.


  7. Based in Los Gatos, my home turf is Santa Clara County, but I’m also familiar with the properties in surrounding counties and I partner with remote agents when my clients need to explore multiple locations.  My service is completely free to my clients (I get a referral fee from the community when my client moves in).  I’m totally objective and customer focused; I show my clients every option that fits their profile.  And on top of that, my clients routinely get a better price than they would on their own because all the communities know me. 


  8. I work first to fully understand my client's priorities and preferences, then I use proprietary tools to create a tailored and unique property report (including proximity, price, features, availability, quality, etc.).  These communities never contact my clients directly; I don't give out their contact info.  I arrange and accompany my clients on their tours as their advocate, and I also help with the entire selection, price negotiation, and transition process.  Many have said my personalized and comprehensive business model is the best senior placement service in the area.
