Certified Senior Advisor (CSA) Real Estate Services

Buying or selling a home later in life is different. The stakes are often higher, the decisions more complex, and the emotional dimensions more significant. Whether you're an older adult considering a move after decades in the same home, an adult child helping an aging parent navigate a transition, or a family managing a real estate component of an estate — you deserve an advisor who truly understands where you are.

The Stacey Froelich Team includes a Certified Senior Advisor (CSA) — a credentialed professional who has completed advanced training in the health, financial, and social dimensions of aging, and who brings that understanding to every real estate transaction involving older adults and their families.

What Is a Certified Senior Advisor?

The CSA credential is awarded by the Society of Certified Senior Advisors to professionals who have completed rigorous education on the complexities of aging — including financial planning, healthcare considerations, housing transitions, legal matters, and family dynamics. A CSA understands not just real estate, but the full context in which older adults make housing decisions.

In real estate, this means our CSA-credentialed team member brings a level of sensitivity, patience, and holistic perspective that goes well beyond the typical transaction. We understand that a home sale isn't just a financial event — it's a life event.

Who We Serve

Older Adults Making a Transition

Whether you're moving from a large family apartment to something more manageable, relocating to be closer to family, or preparing to move into a continuing care community, we provide honest, unhurried guidance. We help you understand your options, maximize the value of your current home, and find the right next place — if there is one.

Adult Children Helping Aging Parents

We work frequently with adult children who are helping a parent or parents navigate a housing transition. This is often delicate territory — balancing the parent's wishes, the family's concerns, financial considerations, and timing. We are skilled at facilitating these conversations with respect and clarity, and at managing transactions that involve multiple family stakeholders.

Estate and Trust Sales

When a home must be sold as part of an estate or trust, the circumstances are often emotionally charged and legally complex. We have extensive experience working with executors, trustees, estate attorneys, and families to move these transactions forward efficiently and respectfully.

A Trusted Referral Network

Our CSA credential comes with a network. Over the years, we have developed trusted relationships with elder law attorneys, estate planners, financial advisors, geriatric care managers, senior move managers, and estate sale professionals. When our clients need support beyond the real estate transaction itself, we can connect them with people we trust.

The Pace and Process We Bring

We understand that older adults and their families often need more time, more explanation, and more check-ins than a typical transaction. We build that in. We communicate clearly, we don't rush, and we make sure every person involved feels informed and respected at every stage of the process.

Real estate is personal. At this stage of life, it can be especially so. We are honored to be trusted with it.
