I am happy to report that am an now officially a Senior Real Estate Specialist. SRES is the only designation and marketing program specifically designed to serve senior property owners. SRES designees have acquired unique tools and a special expertise to counsel senior clients with their lifestyle transitions which may include financial, legal and medical issues, tax laws, and decisions on aging in place verses assisted living options.
As a SRES agent I am able to offer expert assistance to my 50-plus clients. This group of seniors, now comprises one of the fastest growing communities in the country. Did you know that 33% of the United States' population reached age 50 in 2010? That the average life span in the United States has reached 78? Another fast growing segment of our population is nonagenarians, people in their nineties, and centenarians, people aged one hundred or more. Census projections put the number of nonagenarians at up to 2.1 million in 2010 and 2.7 million in 2020. This growing population will challenge our society's ability to adapt to the elderly's needs for housing, health care and long-term care. As a Realtor who constantly looks for market changes, I have positioned myself to gain the knowledge needed to help this growing segment grow into their retirement years with grace and dignity. Feel free to contact me for more information about senior real estate matters. It would be my pleasure to assist you.
