Community Selection

Carefree living – “Which Community???”

I think it is best to begin narrowing down your choices by asking more questions, which will tend to focus your thoughts and narrow the selection.

  • Do I want to live in a golf course community?
  • Do I want an adult community or just a maintenance free community?
  • Is the age in place option important to me?
  • Do I want my living space on one level?
  • Do I want a 55+ community with a clubhouse, activities and amenities, companionship?
  • Are there special services I will require?
  • Is the local convenient to my healthcare providers?
  • Do I have friends or family members that I want to be close to?
  • Maintenance fees, how much and what do they cover?
  • Ownership type, deed or life time estate?
  • View property?
  • What can I afford?
  • Resale value?
  • How long to I plan to live there?
  • What kind of financing is available?

I hope answering these questions helps focus your thinking.  Need more information, then call me and we can sit down and go over your real estate needs.
