THE ERICKSON TRIBUNE

Americans strive throughout life to save money for the future. Many parents save for the future education of their children. Grandparents often put money aside for their grandchildren or as a legacy for their children. Many Americans save their hardearned dollars, not only for their sense of accomplishment, but also to sustain their way of life during retirement.

Wind Crest, a new campus-style community coming to Highlands Ranch, offers new options for making the most of your retirement and securing your nest egg. John Erickson, founder of Erickson Communities, developed an idea that would provide even the average American with a retirement lifestyle full of services and amenities which previously had been reserved only for the wealthy.

If you decide that Wind Crest is an essential part of your future, your nest egg will never be subject to transfer fees, trading commissions, or other investment charges. At other communities, only a portion of your deposit is returned to you, often less than 90 percent. The cornerstone of Wind Crest’s financial program ensures that your 100% Refundable Entrance Deposit will be returned to you or your heirs once your apartment home is reoccupied. A full return on your deposit ensures that you save thousands of dollars that you might have lost when investing in other communities.

The 100% Refundable Entrance Deposit also helps to lower your monthly fees. Erickson will use a portion of your deposit to build Wind Crest and your apartment home, therefore avoiding long term debt that most developers face and transfer to their clients.
