Relocation is never easy, but for those who have recently retired and are looking to start fresh in a new community, it can feel like even more of an undertaking. When relocating to a 55-plus community it can be overwhelming to know where to start when it comes to finding a home for this new chapter of your life. Fortunately, we know what you should look for when relocating to a 55-plus community. If you’re interested in making a move to an active adult neighborhood, you’re in good hands with the Martin Freeman Group. We specialize in helping you find the perfect home so you can enjoy your well-deserved free time.

When relocating to a 55-plus community, it’s important to consider:

Weather

When relocating to a 55-plus community deciding the location of where you’d like to spend your golden years is step one in the relocation process. Optimum climates allow you to participate in all of your favorite activities year-round so that you can make the most of your retirement. Not only does the Lowcountry have fantastic weather, but our featured communities allow you to enjoy the seasons by providing amenities such as walking trails, pools, tennis courts, and more.

Budget

Establishing a budget is another important element when relocating to a 55-plus community. We want this process to be as stress-free as possible, which is why we will research tirelessly to find you the home of your dreams that won’t break the bank. It is also worth mentioning that South Carolina is very tax-friendly for seniors and does not tax social security or railroad retirement income. This allows for living comfortably without sacrificing luxury a reality for many of our clients. 

Lifestyle and Recreation Options

As we previously mentioned, our featured communities offer some top-notch amenities to fit all hobbies and interests. It’s easy to lose touch with our passions after years of work and raising a family, but all of the offerings within our 55-plus communities make it easy to pick up our hobbies again. Whether it’s the clubhouse with a full social calendar, a new sport with active participants, or a water feature for fishing, you can find plenty of ways to keep busy and enjoy!

Maintenance

We’re sure that there’s at least one way you’d prefer not to fill your free time with, and that is chores and maintenance. Cutting the grass, landscaping, and other upkeep are either tedious or overlooked, both of which can impact your quality of life. When relocating to a 55-plus community you are living in the definition of low-maintenance living. After all the work you’ve put in over the years, you’ve earned the right to live in a beautiful home without the hours of labor required. 

Medical Care

Accidents happen, and you always want to be prepared, especially if you’re in a new area. Our communities had this in mind during their construction, which is why you can have the peace and quiet of a secluded neighborhood without sacrificing any of the necessities and conveniences. When relocating to a 55-plus community it is important to be near hospitals and pharmacies. In these communities, they are just a stone’s throw away so you can have the peace of mind to live your best life.
