Tips and tools to help you find a great seniors’ apartment
Here are three tips for finding a great seniors’ apartment:
1. As with any real estate, location is the key. Know what area of Scarborough you want to live in or what you want to be close to. What conveniences matter to you?
2. Talk to building residents. Ask the owner for references from anyone currently living there. If you can, though, meet as many people as possible. Talk to them privately and find out what they like about living there and what they found it hard to adjust to. Consult our reviews of senior housing. /retirement-community-reviews/
3. Visit buildings during different times of the day and week. Once you have a few places on your shortlist, check them out during different times of the week. Is there more going on during the week? During the mid-afternoon? Try several visits to each place and you’ll likely see different things.
