Selecting an SRES REALTOR for Macomb County Michigan

What is an “SRES?”  That’s a great question!  SRES stands for Seniors Real Estate Specialists, who are local REALTORS (here in Macomb County MI) uniquely qualified to address the needs of home buyers and sellers age 60+.  The SRES Council of the National Association of REALTORS awards the SRES designation to those agents who have successfully completed an extensive education program.  Rick Giese of RE/MAX Advisors & www.MySeniorHelpDesk.com  is one of the few REALTORS in Southeastern Michigan who hold the designation of SRES.

SRES REALTORS have demonstrated the necessary knowledge and expertise to counsel clients age 60+ through major financial and lifestyle transitions involved in relocating, refinancing, or selling the family home.

Seniors often have a more complicated set of needs than their younger counterparts when it comes to real estate transactions.  Accordingly, for older adults making home buying, selling, or financing decisions, there are many benefits of working with a senior specialist.  
Here are just a few examples:  SRES agents have lots of experience with downsizing.  Selling the family home can be extremely challenging, if mom and dad have lived in the same place for 30+ years.  Seniors often accumulate a wealth of “stuff” and disposing of it can be both physically and emotionally challenging, not to mention overwhelming.  An SRES is armed with many resources to help mitigate the stress of this task, and has plenty of experience in this area.

Another common challenge faced by many seniors who are selling their family home is that they haven’t updated in many years.  Outdated kitchens and baths, carpet and wallpaper that is out of style and other similar issues can be overwhelming and hard for the prospective senior seller to understand.  Again, a compassionate SRES can guide them through making wise financial decisions about the cost to upgrade versus simply pricing the property to sell “as is.” 
When it comes to choosing a new place, SRES agents are well versed in the range of 55+ communities, as well as local senior housing facilities.  For first time retirees, it is extremely helpful to consider homes that will “age” with them – in other words, practical floor plans and options such as first floor bedrooms and potential caretaker suites that can be adapted to meet their needs as they grow older.
