They're not your average grandparents.

If you thought the Senior Real Estate Specialist® designation was about helping old people in retirement homes, you couldn’t be more wrong. It’s about learning to cater to the needs of the baby boomer generation. People born between 1946 and 1964 are currently retiring at a rate of 10,000 per day. Their needs and demands of real estate professionals are changing as they redefine retirement.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, more than 7,900 people will turn 60 every single day this year. In addition, real estate is the largest single asset class held by households that are headed by someone who is 65 or older.

It’s time to learn how to:

  • Get more business, make more money and close more deals by understanding the aging baby boomers.
  • Provide the services and resources that the aging baby boomers need the most.
  • Develop a professional team of experts that will differentiate you from your competition.
  • Market and target a growing retirement population.
  • Craft a real estate consulting business to serve the largest section of the buying public.
  • Distinguish characteristics and trends related to the 50+ population.
