Frequently Asked Questions

What are the attributes of a well-managed senior living community?

When choosing a senior living community, it's critical to find out who owns and manages the community — and to consider their reputation.

StoneRidge, for instance, is managed by Life Care Services LLC (LCS). LCS is the leader in developing and managing senior living communities nationwide. For more information, go to About LCS.

How can I find the best senior living value?

The best senior living value combines a package of services and amenities with priority access to health care and assisted living — all for an affordable fee. At StoneRidge, the area's only ContinuingCare™ community, residents have lifetime access to the on-site Avalon Health Center, which offers a full continuum of quality care at a discount. Residents only pay for services if and when they require them.

Where can I get help selling my home?

Make sure you have all the information you need to make smart decisions about the sale of your home.

• Choose a real estate agent from a highly skilled group of professionals to ensure you're getting the best representation.
• Choose an agent who is a good "fit" for you, as you'll get two independent opinions and ultimately choose the agent and strategy that works best for you.
• Work with your agent throughout the selling process.

How can I find out what my home is worth in today's market?

We recommend that at least two agents visit with you before you make a listing decision. Each agent will complete a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) for your home, a free analysis that gives you an understanding of the current real estate market and how it impacts the sale of your home.

Multiple opinions like this will help you make the smartest decision possible. Once you've chosen an agent to list your home, work with your agent to establish the marketing strategy to list your home in the best possible light.

What about organizing and "rightsizing" my household?

Organizing and simplifying your household is a great way to focus on life's most important aspects. That's why experts who specialize in organizing and eliminating clutter are in demand.

A professional organizer/planner can provide hands-on assistance preparing for the transition process, overseeing the details on moving day and getting settled into your new home. Items an organizer/planner can help you with include space planning, packing, move coordination, document management, unpacking and arranging, effective storage and decorating.
