News

We are Staying Current

We are now updating our site pages at least once a month to stay current, but cannot be responsible for up-to-the minute changes at retirement communities. For the most accurate price information, please go to the builder's website.

We Continue to Offer Interviews and Reviews

  • From the best retirement community authorities in our Interview with Experts series
  • From Realtors who specialize in helping seniors in our Realtors Spotlight series
  • Our Reviews of communities

The above are at our request and graciously contributed by the experts without compensation. All articles are original and written exclusively for us.

Original Photos

    In addition to my own attempts at photo taking, our photos are from:

  • Generous donations from four members of my family who happen to be exceptionally talented in the arts including photography.
  • In addition we thank the communities who have contributed.
  • A few photos are from stock companies but kept to a minimum.

We hope you enjoy them all.

Low Interest Rates and Prices Continue

Can you believe the prices you are seeing; combined with low interest rates, it is a good time to go look at our communities. You might see something you can't resist. Read our blog for tips on the latest.

When visiting communities, also ask if any special incentives to buy are being offered.

Florida is "on sale" now and home prices are lower due to high inventories.

Communities Overlap

Overlapping occurs when a community fits more than one category. Check more than one category to find what you are looking for. For instance, mobile homes can be found in both the mobile home category and the manufactured home category.

We have a lot to view for just one visit--we hope you'll Bookmark us so you'll come back for more as our site constantly changes.

So let's get started..

Go to Top of Page

and thank you for visiting.
