Understanding The Difference
From Typical Agent To Trusted Advocate
Not all real estate agents or service providers are the same – especially when working with older adults, aging families, and estates. Whether you’re a family selecting an agent or a professional asking “Am I really equipped for this?”, here’s what the progression looks like.

The Evolution
From Accredited Senior Agent™ to Lifestyle55+ Affiliate Program
The Accredited Senior Agent™ (ASA™) designation was Canada’s original seniors real estate training program, created to help REALTORS® better serve the unique needs of older adults. Available exclusively to licensed real estate professionals, ASA™ was once part of Continuing Education (CE) credit programs in many provinces. For years, ASA™ helped Canadian agents recognize that working with seniors goes far beyond the transaction – it involves understanding aging, health, family dynamics, and complex housing decisions.
But as the landscape evolved, so did the expectations of aging clients and their families. The industry needed more than just awareness – it needed action, visibility, support and leadership. The Accredited Senior Agent™ (ASA™) designation was Canada’s first senior-specific real estate training program, originally developed to help REALTORS® support older adults through later-life moves. It was exclusive to licensed agents and offered CE credits in several provinces. For years, ASA™ helped REALTORS® realize that working with seniors requires more than market knowledge – it demands empathy, patience, and transition planning.
The Lifestyle55+ Affiliate Program members directory helps enable discovery and match you with the affiliates & masters best for you.
But the industry changed. Aging clients and their families now expect more than basic awareness. They need guidance, resources, and professionals who understand the full picture – from downsizing and health issues to POAs, senior housing options and estates. That’s why when the ASA™ was retired the Lifestyle55+ built something bigger, better and more inclusive!
