Susan Cahoon, Principal and Broker of Homes on Martha’s Vineyard, was recently awarded the National Association of Realtors’ SRES designation.  SRES, which stands for Seniors Real Estate Specialist, is earned when a Realtor completes a training course and passes an examination.  SRES professionals are well-versed in the needs of our growing and aging population, from the “GI Generation” to the “Millennials”.  “Senior” now encompasses anyone over the age of 50!  “Our needs are often complex, and must address a range of services, while still considering the must-haves of younger family members”, said Susan. “That’s why getting this additional training and knowledge was so important to me.”  An SRES Realtor has access through a wide network of professionals who provide specialized from reverse mortgages to identifying appropriate adult or assisted-living communities. 

Susan has been a real estate professional since 1975, working in management, sales, property management and development in both residential and commercial real estate in the Suburban Boston and Cape Cod and Islands market.  She and her business partner, Tjark Aldeborgh, opened Homes on Martha’s Vineyard in 2011 at Post Office Square in Edgartown.  Homes on Martha’s Vineyard offers a full range of real estate services – sales, rentals and property management.  A full-time, year round business, their real estate agents are committed and caring; making sure that their customers are treated with unequaled service and professionalism.  Susan can be reached at 508-939-0206 or at Susan@HomesonMVY.com.
