Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main difference between The Forum and other retirement communities?

There are two important differences that help to provide peace of mind and security for you and your children – equity ownership and continuing care.

Investment Return Plus Equity Plan. The Forum offers an equity ownership plan that allows you to purchase a membership interest in The Forum and sell it to a qualified buyer at any time. Instead of paying one lump sum with little or no return, this plan helps to provide estate protection and security. Depending on real estate market conditions and/or any other extenuating circumstances, all or a large share of your investment will be returned – plus a share in any appreciation.

Continuing Care. At The Forum, residents live on their own in apartment homes and villas, but have access to both a Wellness Center, located in the community building, and Home Care if they need some assistance in their home. When and if they need it, assisted living and nursing care are provided on The Forum’s campus at the Health Center. For many residents, continuing care is an important consideration since it helps to provide peace of mind so children don’t have to worry about taking care of their parents while they are recuperating from an illness or injury or during a prolonged illness when they need long-term care.
