Our relationships with you start at the top, with Comfort Living President Joe Swanson, Jr. We would like for you to get to know a little about Joe and why he started Comfort Living.
States Joe: “Helping a family enjoy the home of their dream as long as they can is our primary focus and the very reason our company was created. The Comfort Living concept is not just another product or service . . . it's our mission!”
Joe is a member and certified in the following organizations:
He is the go-to person to examine your needs and determine the right options that will enable you to make the best decision for you or your loved ones.
As a Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist (CAPS), Joe is involved in a very diverse program that teaches the technical, business management, and customer service skills essential to competing in the fastest growing segment of the residential remodeling industry: home modifications for the aging-in-place.
In addition, as a certified Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES) -- which is part of a national program designed to focus on the needs of buyers and sellers 50 and older, Joe has been trained to help seniors make wise decisions about selling the family home. He also offers knowledge about financing, buying or selling rental properties and managing capital gains. He also can explain current trends and opportunities for seniors in the housing market.
While an SRES Realtor cannot give legal or tax advice. they maintain referral relationships with accountants and real estate attorneys so they can refer their clients to those professionals as needed.
States Joe: “As my entire family begins to mature -- I can see the need to help them and others to continue to live independently -- in their own home -- and still be a part of what is dear to them -- their family, friends and community. That’s why I started the Comfort Living."
