Fresh Ideas in Retirement Communities

The senior or retirement years can be a time of great enjoyment as you

explore, play, and learn.

Builders always locate their communities in the best places they can find ...whether coastal, urban, country...

TAKE NOTICE: Some communities are now selling out of their 1st phase before they have built model homes.  It is best to stay in touch with a community early on if you have an interest.  Lower priced homes sell fastest.

New offerings with more creative designs and features coming in 2020.  The buying market in real estate starts now.  Whether you are retired or not these communities get more exciting and offer more every year.  Make this year your time to make a change and purchase in a 55+ community.

When touring model homes, be sure to ask the agent what amenities are being offered. The most active communities have lots of amenities and opportunities to meet new people.   

Prices are still very much on the flux so be sure to check individual community websites for the latest community pricing. We do our best to keep up with today's rapidly changing prices but the only way to find the most current price is to call the builders or look at their websites. 

Senior RV parks can be some of the happiest places in the Snowbird Season Oct-May. Read our review of an RV Park to see the fun that can be had.  (Note: some activities may be canceled during this time to curtail virus spread.  Please check with the community.)

For seasonal rentals, see our short-term rental page or Florida apartments page.  Often overlooked, RV park communities are another option for snowbird getaways. 

Higher Prices Still a Concern for Low Income Retirees

Prices are still going up on rentals and home purchase, leaving many out of the market for luxury 55+ communities.  Builders of 55+ communities are offering incentives now to help you purchase your new home.  Be sure to ask what these are.

Looking for a lower-priced option?  Try searching our low income housing and mobile home categories.  RV park model communities, also called "tiny homes" are popular now and affordable, and if you lease the land even more affordable.

 NAR Update:

The National Association of Realtors has news releases monthly. They give excellent updates on the real estate market.  Please consult with Realtors how this relates to your local market or one you are interested in and for advice. 

Note:  Overlapping occurs when your search fits more than one category.  This happens a lot.  The remedy is to check more than one category to find what you are looking for.  For instance, mobile homes can be found in the mobile home, RV and manufactured categories as well as state categories.

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.
