You’ve lived in your home for 30 years. Now, the kids have grown and moved away, the neighborhood is changing and you’d like to move to a smaller home where you can enjoy an active retirement. The problem is you’re not sure what your house is worth, you’re concerned about tax planning and you don’t know what your options are in terms of what or where to buy.
You might want to consider hiring a Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES).
In 1998, the California-based Senior Advantage Real Estate Council (SAREC) became a national program designed to focus on the needs of buyers and sellers 50 and older. The council offers a special designation — SRES — to identify real estate agents who have completed its education program. Basically, an SRES designee is trained to help seniors make wise decisions about selling the family home. He also offers knowledge about financing, buying or selling rental properties and managing capital gains. He also can explain current trends and opportunities for seniors in the housing market.
