There are pros and cons to condo living. We can guide and protect you by investigating potential risks for the specific condo you are considering and other costs you may not know about.

The concept of a condo is that someone else takes care of common area maintenance, which is the main reason you pay a condo fee. Yes, it’s great when you don’t have to shovel snow or can park underground. However, be aware that condos also have downsides.

You may be faced with an assessment or bill for your portion of a new roof, or to paint hallways in the complex. Many condos are wonderful, but a few are disasters waiting to happen.

A major development in senior housing has been the advent of independent and assisted living communities. Many misconceptions about these communities exist in the minds of those who have not visited them. Although the apartment is probably smaller than what you are used to, the amenities are generally great. Think of it as living in a resort with good food, planned activities and other features such as beauty parlors, lounges and more.

Residents of independent living communities often maintain their cars and social calendars with little need of assistance. In contrast, assisted living communities provide additional services tailored to residents’ needs such as nursing care, housekeeping and prepared meals.

Sell Mom’s House has relationships with most of the communities in your area and can guide you or arrange a visit. These communities are surprisingly affordable when you consider that you are eliminating the cost of real estate taxes, maintenance and the cost of most meals.

Socialization is another great reason to consider assisted or independent living communities, as seniors can become isolated when living alone.
