There are several reasons why you should consider Seniors Real Estate when buying and selling, including:
The traditional real estate approach to buying and selling can be uninspired, and in some cases overly complicated. We’ve shed the old strategies and replaced them with innovative thinking, honesty and trust all incorporated into a new level of real estate service and advocacy.
Many retirees and mature aged clients are perplexed by pushy agents who themselves are unaware of the emotional complexity of moving homes, when possibly having lost a partner and friend. We have redefined the level of services we offer when clients (whether single or a couple) are evaluating the next move in their lifestyle journey. We bring a fresh look at downsizing, and the creation of a manageable plan when seeking affordable accommodation options that prioritise quality of life.
At Seniors Real Estate, we encourage clients to make well informed choices based on unbiased advice and help. For those that wish to sell their home we offer two levels of service: our ‘The Full Monty’ home-to-home package with embedded help and advice; or our sale-only ‘Keep it Simple’ package. For buyers, the ‘Make it Happen’ package is aimed at helping you find your next home or investment property wherever or whatever that might be.
