Deciding whether to stay in your home or move into a Senior Apartment can be a difficult decision for both seniors and their families. At FayeBrooke, we understand the emotions tied to this choice and are here to help you consider all aspects so you can make the best decision for your needs.

Factors to Consider

When it comes to determining if it’s time to move, think about your current and future quality of life. Ask yourself these questions:

• Are you able to maintain your home comfortably, or has it become too much to manage?
• Do you feel isolated and wish for more opportunities to socialize?
• Are you concerned about safety, such as the risk of falling or managing home repairs?
• Do you want a lifestyle that’s easier to maintain as you age?

If you find yourself nodding along, a Senior Apartment in a Retirement Community may provide the solution.

Benefits of Living in a Senior Community

Senior Communities like FayeBrooke can enhance daily life in ways you might not expect. Here are some advantages to keep in mind:

• Convenience: Forget about shoveling snow, mowing the lawn, or fixing that leaky faucet. Our comprehensive services take care of the chores for you.

Homeownership vs. Renting in Buffalo and WNY

If you’ve always owned your home, transitioning to renting a Senior Apartment may feel unfamiliar. But consider this comparison in the context of retirement living in Buffalo, Williamsville, or Amherst, NY:

• Costs: Homeownership involves property taxes, home repairs, and utilities, which can add up quickly. Renting in a Senior Community eliminates unpredictable expenses for a predictable monthly fee.
• Upkeep: Some older homes require constant maintenance. Renting allows you to relax without worrying about upkeep or emergencies.
• Lifestyle: Renting in a Retirement Community unlocks access to enhanced amenities and frees up your time to focus on hobbies, family, and personal time.
