Land Lease vs. Land
Purchase
What is the best option as you reach your retirement years? At Glenwood Village we offer the home buyer a choice; attractive floor plans, an existing
community with high standards, and amenities.
Many
developments offer an attractive package; a big lot, large floor plans and the promise of
private property ownership. As you search for the right home remember that those
features also come with drawbacks. High taxes, maintenance, impact fees and loosely
enforced covenants.
Remember
lifestyle is important and Glenwood
Village is an established community committed to
allowing our residents to enjoy their retirement years. Our land lease package
offers an affordable home with many extras not included in other "stick built"
subdivisions. We offer water, sewer, rubbish removal, and curbside mail
delivery. We have a beautiful recreation center with numerous activities. Our
detached homes allow privacy, while at the same time offering manageable upkeep. Glenwood Village is a 55 and over community that has guidelines that benefit all
residents. In addition we offer professional management and service at affordable
rates.
Finally
it is important to remember that when purchasing a Glenwood
Village home you will not tie up all the equity you have built up from your
prior home. Those dollars can be invested and used as a nest egg to allow you an
income to enjoy your retirement.
We welcome an
opportunity to show you how the Glenwood obtion is the
right choice.
