Every guide on this site is written by Sarah Ingles, a REALTOR® with two of the rarest credentials in US real estate: the SRES® (Seniors Real Estate Specialist) designation and CPCU (Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter). Fewer than 100 REALTORS® in the United States hold both designations.
The combination matters because real estate transactions fail most often for one of two reasons: a senior's transition isn't properly coordinated, or the home isn't insurable by the buyer's lender. Sarah's dual background catches both before they become problems.
