Here's why REALTORS^® want to belong to the SRES^® Council:

50+ Real Estate Education

• Identify the power of generational demographics
• Develop and maintain relationship marketing skills
• Counsel rather than sell to seniors
• Use team-building skills with other seniors professionals
• Understand the implications of tax laws, probate and estate planning
• Create a point of difference from the competition

Continued Market Knowledge
