Are you getting the most for your money?

“My husband was sick of the yard work that came with owning our house,” says Ellie MacCallum who moved to Greenspring with her husband Bob in 2004. “We really liked the value of the Greenspring lifestyle as well as the time we would have to start enjoying ourselves again. We figured, why wait?”
How does your house compare?
Consider this. When you move to Greenspring, you will no longer have to worry about home maintenance bills, rising utility costs, driving in bad weather, or finding another place to live should your health care needs ever change.
Moving to Greenspring is not like considering the costs of a second home or some luxury items. The prices involved in living at Greenspring are not “new” expenses. They are simply “replacement” expenses.
Greenspring’s Monthly Service Package replaces your property taxes, utilities, cable bill, trash removal, periodic repair bills, money spent hiring a lawn service, and even the lion’s share of your monthly grocery bill.
“When I think about all the years that I lived alone in my house, I really feel like I missed out,” says Vera Nugent. “I spend about the same as I did in my house, but now I enjoy all the wonderful people and exciting things that there are to do at Greenspring. It’s also a comfort to feel as safe as I do living here.”
No longer worrying about the “what ifs” associated with house ownership, you’ll enjoy financial peace of mind and the ability to spend your hard earned money doing the things you love—whether it’s traveling to Europe or buying a new car.
