Did you know that the odds of winning the Colorado Powerball jackpot are 1 in 146.1 million?

Good thing you don’t need to win the lottery to afford the retirement of your dreams. Wind Crest, the first Erickson community coming to Highlands Ranch is more than just affordable to middle-income homeowners. It’s a great financial decision. Many Coloradans don’t realize they can afford Wind Crest until they call for their free Information Kit and come in to meet with Retirement Counselor Molly Thorne- Dhieux.

Many assume that a retirement community that offers this many amenities and services must be beyondtheir reach.

Not true! Take a look at these interesting facts about Wind Crest.

Fact #1: Wind Crest is affordable to most Colorado homeowners.
Highlands Ranch is well known for its beautiful parks, cultural attractions, shopping, and fine dining. Often, when people see Wind Crest’s address and prime location on Santa Fe Drive, they assume a lifestyle like this is out of their budget.

That’s not the case. Despite it enviable location, Wind Crest is affordable to many Coloradans, not just those who live in Highlands Ranch.

Bobbi Rosack thought Wind Crest would be out of her price range until she did the math. “I consider Wind Crest a good value because I’ve crunched the numbers. I would spend more in my house and I don’t get a restaurant meal a day. I really think it is a very good value. If people figure what they’re spending now against what it costs to live at Wind Crest, I think they’ll find it costs less."
