Your Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES)

 

I HAVE BECOME A SRES® DESIGNEE IN ORDER TO HELP SENIORS DECIDE WHAT TO DO

WHEN THEY NO LONGER WANT TO OWN A HOME AND NEED ASSISTANCE WITH TRANSITION.

As a SRES® designated REALTOR® I am qualified to address the needs of home buyers and sellers aged 50+.
I possess the necessary knowledge and expertise to counsel clients age 50+ through major financial and lifestyle transitions in relocating, refinancing, or selling their family home.

Reviewing Your Current Situation 50+ HOUSING

Nearly everyone wishes to age in place as they grow older. But often, the spacious family house becomes too burdensome, financially and physically, to maintain for individuals over 50.

Trying to determine your next step?

It can entail a complex set of decisions relating to finances, ideal over 50 housing locations and property types, as well as anticipating future needs as you or your loved ones age.

Clarifying the Financial Picture

Need assistance with sorting out the complex decisions and figuring out what role your real estate investment plays in your overall financial picture? Those considerations include taxes, retirement savings withdrawal schedules, long-term care needs, inheritance issues and others.

SRES® designees understand managing capital gains and the tax implications of owning real estate. I can provide information that addresses a host of issues, such as the uses of pensions, 401K accounts, and IRAs in real estate transactions, and how Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security affect real estate decisions for senior citizens.

 

Selling

There’s almost always an emotional element associated with selling a long-time home. I specialize in senior needs and can ease the transition first by talking about your reasons for selling and then exploring all the options either modifying and staying in your current home or finding a different property to be sure you find the very best housing solution.

I will use my expertise and industry knowledge to provide an honest assessment of your property and make suggestions for improving it for sale-ability. I may recommend hiring staging professionals who can make modifications that will best showcase your house and make it appeal to the broadest audience possible.

I can also provide insight on current market conditions, determine how your property stacks up against the competition and develop a pricing and marketing strategy to sell your home quickly and for the highest possible price.

Moving Made Easier

I can help assemble an appropriate team to ease the transition to a new property. Movers, landscapers and stagers can handle the heavy lifting. Attorneys, 1031 exchange specialists and mortgage brokers can manage the heavy paperwork.

SRES® designees can also help you find your new home locally or refer you to designees elsewhere to find property in a new city or near children.
