Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES®)

Specialized Guidance for Life’s Next Chapter

The Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES®) designation, awarded by the National Association of REALTORS®, represents advanced training focused on serving mature adults and their families during important housing transitions. This certification is designed for real estate professionals who understand that later-life moves require clarity, patience, and thoughtful guidance.

An SRES® professional is trained to counsel — not pressure — clients through decisions such as downsizing, rightsizing, retirement relocation, and long-term housing planning. The emphasis is placed on education, strategic planning, and helping clients make informed choices that align with their lifestyle, financial goals, and future needs.
