allows residents access to all campus amenities and assures
priority access to assisted living and nursing care in the

90% of the entrance fee will be refunded to the resident
or their estate.
Is there a monthly fee?
Yes.

for occupancy.
Can you refund my 10 percent
deposit if my situation changes?

deposit monies will be placed in an escrow account until
your residence is ready for occupancy. Should
you or your spouse die, become disabled or have a serious
financial setback after executing the Residence agreement
