Selling your home is more than a transaction; it’s a strategic financial decision that can shape your retirement lifestyle. If you're considering a move to a retirement community, understanding how your home sale fits into the broader financial picture is essential.
Immanuel’s free online resource, A Guide to Selling Your House, offers practical insights into every stage of the process.

Most senior living communities, including Immanuel, require a one-time community fee and ongoing monthly service fees. These cover your residence, amenities, and service, so it’s important to factor them into your post-sale budget.

The proceeds from your home sale can help cover fees and moving costs and even allow you to switch plans later. For example, many Signature community residents start with a Traditional Plan and later transition to a Capital Return Plan as their financial needs evolve.
Immanuel’s Retirement Living Consultants are available to help you explore financing options, timing strategies, and plan how to use your home equity effectively. Whether you sell before, during, or after your move, their support ensures your transition is financially sound.
