Can I afford Laurel Lake?

If you're like most people, you want an enjoyable retirement lifestyle that will protect your assets.  You can have both, but it takes careful planning based on accurate information that lets you compare "apples to apples."  Laurel Lake offers two excellent tools (the Cost of Living Comparison Worksheet and the Financial Projection) to help you determine whether our community will be affordable for you.

l Cost of Living Comparison Worksheet

Here's an easy way to compare your current cost of living in a house, co-op, condominium or rental property with Independent Living at Laurel Lake.  The following chart is based on the Monthly Fee for one person in a 1-bedroom apartment under our Basic Entrance Fee Plan (see About Life Care to read about plan options).  To receive Laurel Lake's current fee summary, contact us today.
