Planning for retirement and selling your house can be an overwhelming task in today’s market. However, it does not have to be. University Village offers help for seniors through our Real Estate Assistance Program. At University Village we are uniquely positioned to partner with our prospective residents to assist with the sale of your house. Waiting only lessens your financial gain and deprives you of the enjoyment of living in our thriving village community.

Houses that sell today are priced right. It is not the real estate market that we knew in the past. Selling in today’s market is all about pricing, being strategic, smart and quick! Statistics clearly show that the longer you wait to sell your house and the longer it is on the market, the less money you will get. The staggering reality is one in ten homes make it to the closing table. Real Estate Assistance Program works with top real estate agents to make sure it’s yours!

Georgene Perlman, a Realtor with Homeward Real Estate, tells her clients, “The key to getting your home sold is having as many people as possible get through the front door. Pricing your house right the first time on the market gives you the best chance of a quick sale. The right price is a sale in the first 30 days.” In order to ensure your home sells, and offer help for seniors on fixed income, University Village will cover the costs of an aggressive discount plan if needed.

You can arrange your closing at University Village with just 10% of the entry fee. The balance of the entry fee is deferred for six months or when your property sells (whichever occurs first). In addition, University Village's Real Estate Assistance Program will waive the monthly service fee for up to six months to further assist you to defray costs.

University Village residents create lives that are rich, full and balanced socially, mentally, physically and spiritually. Making a decision to make University Village “the window to your future” is just a visit and a phone call away.
