PHILOSOPHY
Caring and compassionate advocates, skilled business people, and master collaborators. When an older adult is in need of a team of professionals to assist with a complex move, their Senior Real Estate Specialist at Elder Tree Realty is fully equipped to serve as both a guide and a consultant, providing referrals as well as personal service from start to finish.
Navigating the complexities of a late-in-life move can often be a daunting task and older adults deserve to work with professionals who fully appreciate their fears, concerns, needs, and goals - and not just those related to moving or selling a beloved home.
We appreciate that senior related moves are unique and often require communication within a larger family unit as well as the involvement of multiple professionals from various fields. We surround ourselves with a strategic alliance of trusted professionals in order to best serve the client's needs.

MANAGING TRANSITION
Open and clear communication at all times throughout the transaction.
