Keller Williams Suburban Realty · Steven & Erica Gendel
The Gendel Group
Four generations of real estate perspective, with a decade-long specialty in rightsizing and senior transitions.
Steven & Erica · Senior Transitions
The house is only part of the decision.
For more than a decade, Steven and Erica have worked predominantly with clients over 60, downsizers, empty nesters, and their families—turning an overwhelming housing decision into a practical plan without rushing the answer.
A clear path through the overwhelm
01
Stay or move
Understand whether the current home can support the next chapter—or whether another setting would serve you better.
02
Sort what matters
The team’s senior move manager helps work through an entire household—what to take, keep, pass on, or let go—with a plan that can organize the home in under a week.
03
Find the right fit
Compare smaller homes, one-level living, and other practical options across Northern New Jersey.
Sometimes the right plan is a move. Sometimes it is making the current home more workable. Steven and Erica begin with the person, not the transaction.

Meet EricaSpecial Needs Housing Guidance
A home that supports the whole life.
Families navigating housing for a loved one with special needs deserve more than a list of properties. Steven and Erica bring the home, the community, and the available support network into one thoughtful conversation.
Housing
01Begin with the realities of daily life: accessibility, layout, location, transportation, support needs, and the household’s longer-term plans.
Community
02Look beyond the property line to consider the routines, relationships, services, and sense of belonging that make a community workable.
Resources
03Identify relevant community resources and local points of connection so families can evaluate the broader support surrounding a possible home.
Every family’s circumstances are different. The first step is listening carefully, then shaping a housing search around the person at the center of it.
