5. Strike a Delicate Balance Between Affordability, Price, and Value

Senior living is a value-enhanced and service-enriched offering – and as such, it may appear expensive.  But with the variety of options available and a careful look at true living expenses, you may be less sensitive to price.  Put costs in perspective by first objectively evaluating your or your loved one’s current cost of living.  You may be surprised to find that the assisted living option is less expensive than your current cost of living.  This can be especially true when you consider expenses like real estate taxes, home maintenance, and insurance, along with the comprehensive services that are all provided by a senior living residence.
