Choosing
How to choose the right 55+ community
When you’re comparing communities, it helps to look beyond the house itself.
- Amenities you’ll actually use, like golf, pickleball, pools or clubs
- HOA and recreation fees, and what they include
- Age requirements and rules for guests or family
- Distance to family, medical care and shopping
- Home styles and lot sizes that fit your plans

FAQ
55+ community questions
Do I have to be 55 to buy in a 55+ community?
Rules vary by community. In many age-restricted communities, at least one resident must be 55 or older. I always confirm the current rules for the specific community before you make an offer.

Most have HOA and recreation fees that support amenities like golf, pools and clubs. Fees vary widely, so I’ll get the exact numbers for any home you’re considering.
Can you help me sell my current home and buy in a 55+ community?
Yes. I can help you time both sides of the move so the transition is as smooth as possible.
