"Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most." Mark Twain

Senior Apartments: Where would you like to go on the page:Northeast Apartments California Apartments Midwest Southwest Southeast Florida Northwest



Renting senior apartments offers the ultimate flexibility. Also, with no home purchase, your savings can be put into other investments, but please check with your financial advisors. Some require a entry deposit and some do not.

It is estimated around 25% of seniors rent. We list upscale rentals as well as affordable. Both are in demand. There are also low income rentals, another category we will have soon.

In the current real estate market you may have sold your home but want to wait and see where the home market is headed, cannot decide where you want to retire, or are not sure of the community. You can rent awhile and try the area or community out.

Senior apartments may offer total independent senior living or have numerous amenities and activities for socializing. They may come with meals, transportation, services in the monthly rent or not. Do thorough investigations just as you would if you were purchasing as amenities and services vary.

Besides senior rental apartment buildings, you may wish to rent someone's home within a retirement community. These are very nice as no one will know you are not an owner and you will be able to enjoy being a part of the community. You can find these short-term or long-term listings in the community newspaper or through a Realtor.

There are also Short-Term Furnished Rentals for vacation, seasonal getaways, snowbirds, and "trying out." Also, see this page for a list of items to look for in a lease.

Someday needing additional help--Margaret at The Glens says "the world of the active adult is opening new doors each day that allow clients to stay in their homes and independent longer."

She says they let residents know that there are agencies available that come into private homes to take care of cooking, cleaning, medication supervision with boxes that open up at scheduled times,etc., if ever became necessary. Wonderful news, Margaret. (Remember all decisions regarding care and assistance must be your own to make after researching your options.)
