In a prior blog entry I attempted to start a thought process on what we, especially those involved in supporting seniors, are doing to prepare ourselves, our family members and others in our communities for maximum financial security and maximum lifestyle in our later years.
Those of us with SRES (Senior Real Estate Specialist) training have been equiped to counsel and help seniors make wise decisions about selling the family home, business or investment property, buying rental property, managing the capital gains and tax implications of owning real estate.
However, the best time to address the later years in our lives is before we reach that stage and, again, that is where people that have experience and training can make important contributions to help minimize the inherent risks of making long-term decisons.
A challenge is getting people who are not yet near to that stage in their life to think beyond setting up a retirement or savings plan at work -- to see and understand the big picture when making real estate investment and business decisions.
For those that face being care givers, they also may need to be pro-active and involved in planning for the future.
What are the main issues that effect you as a current or future senior, a care giver or as service providor? What is your preferred method for offering solutions and services?
