Realtors with special training provide help for seniors
Seniors Choice Newsmagazine, August 2007
If
you are thinking of selling your home and downsizing, or it may be time
to move into an assisted-living complex, you may want to hire a
"Seniors Real Estate Specialist"
Yep! Something new. This
designation is exclusive to Real Estate professionals who have
successfully completed the training offered by the Seniors Advisory
Council.
Real Estate Specialists are trained to help you make
wise decisions regarding the sale of your home, inform you about
financing options, and explain current trends and opportunities for
seniors in the housing market. We also maintain referral relationships
with accountants and real estate attorneys so we can refer our clients
to those professionals as needed.
While any licensed Realtor can handle a transaction, it is the wise senior who seeks out someone with experience in the 55-Plus market place, according to Richard "Dick" Gaylord, the National Assn. of Realtors' nominee for 2006 first vice president.
There are so many factors particular to the seniors' circumstance that they'll be better off with a Realtor who is familiar with that terrain.
Whether you are considering the sale of your home to down size or making a move to assisted living, you should consider the services of a Seniors Real Estate Specialist.
