(1888PressRelease) January 09, 2014 - Kansas City, KS/MO - Having recently completed a rigorous two-day curriculum, Maggie Lee, Real Estate Agent with The Brust Group at Keller Williams Realty - Diamond Partners Inc. has achieved the prestigious Certified Senior Housing Professional (CSHP) designation from the Seniors Real Estate Institute.

Awarded only to a select number of real estate professionals in any market, the CSHP designation equips senior housing professionals to serve the distinct needs of seniors and their families with an unsurpassed level of compassion, expertise and connectedness.

Demographic shifts and improvements in life expectancy have given rise to senior housing options that far exceed those of previous decades. CSHPs are not only in touch with the full range of options within their communities, they have the specific skills needed to help seniors to get where they want to go - unraveling the complexities involved in downsizing and selling a family home.

"Despite the fact that seniors are the fastest growing segment of the population, this segment of the market remains largely underserved," noted Nikki Buckelew, Founder and President of the Seniors Real Estate Institute.

Buckelew, who has a graduate degree in gerontology, pointed to the fact that 10,000 Baby Boomers will turn 60 every day for the next 18 years. At the other end of the senior spectrum, the 90-plus segment of the population nearly tripled over the past three decades, and is expected to quadruple over the next 40 years.

"Professionals such as Maggie Lee have a clear vision of how the real estate market is evolving," Buckelew added. "As such, she has sought out the training, the resources, and the access to trusted experts within the Kansas City Metro market, in order to serve senior clients and their families at a high level.

"This expertise, combined with a passion to ensure the dignity of elderly clients, is not just a benefit to seniors and their families," Buckelew emphasized. "It's a profound asset to the entire community."
