A 55+ community is a neighborhood designed specifically for active adults, typically with at least one resident aged 55 or older in each household. These communities are planned to support convenience, accessibility, and lifestyle, often featuring single-level homes, low-maintenance living, and thoughtfully designed community spaces.
Many homeowners choose this type of neighborhood because it allows them to simplify daily life while remaining connected to neighbors and local activities. At Eastman Homes, our communities are carefully designed around comfort, community, and quality craftsmanship. Explore ranch homes for sale in Colorado.
Living in a 55+ community in Colorado offers several advantages, including reduced home maintenance, accessible home designs, and a strong sense of community among neighbors with similar lifestyles.
Many communities include homeowner association services that handle landscaping and exterior maintenance, giving residents more time to travel, enjoy hobbies, or spend time with friends and family. Explore our most recent new homes in Fort Lupton, CO.
If a community is designated as age-restricted, then 80% of the homes in that community must include a primary resident that is 55 years of age or older. If a community is not designated as age-restricted, then residents do not have to be a certain age.
Common amenities in 55 plus communities include clubhouses, fitness centers, swimming pools, pickleball courts, walking trails and more.
Many available homes in 55 plus communities offer single-level living including a primary owner’s suite on the main level. Some 55 plus communities offer zero-step entries to homes or bonus suite options for visiting family members and friends. Epcon communities offer oversized garages and ample storage space in a variety of home sizes, allowing homeowners to “rightsize” to fit their lifestyle.
You can lock in interest rates at the start of the process, so you’ll know ahead of time what your closing costs will be. This will be paid at closing.
Your minimum down payment depends on the type of mortgage you choose, your lender and your finances. By making a 20% or more down payment, you will avoid paying private mortgage insurance.
Since your budget can often dictate where and how much house you can buy, getting prequalified as early as possible will help your home journey proceed smoother.
One of the most important steps in the home buying process is choosing your lender. While we do not require you to work with an Epcon preferred lender, we highly recommend them because they possess a thorough understanding of our process.
There are a number of different mortgage types, but here are a few of the most common:
