UNDERSTANDING PRICING AT THE BALDWIN | A LIFE PLAN COMMUNITY

Find an exceptional lifestyle at a unique value.

On the surface, you might think a retirement community is too expensive. But when you consider everything that’s included in your residency and compare it to all the costs and burdens of maintaining your current home, you’ll likely find that life at The Baldwin provides a real value. That’s because, at The Baldwin, many of the things you pay for with separate bills now are covered by one simple monthly fee and an entrance fee that guarantees your residency for life. Plus, with a LifeCare contract, you may realize certain tax advantages.*

Another important distinction is that The Baldwin is a not-for-profit organization. This means our first concern and top priority will always be doing what’s right for residents. With no shareholders to satisfy, all “profits” are reinvested in the community for the benefit of residents — the people we exist to serve.

*The IRS has, in the past, allowed a portion of the entrance fee and monthly fees to be deducted as pre-paid medical expenses. Consult your tax advisor for guidance and information about your personal situation.

Understanding the Entrance Fee

What does the entrance fee cover?

The entrance fee guarantees your residency at The Baldwin, use of the common amenities, and guaranteed priority access to in-home resident services, assisted living, memory support, short-term rehabilitation, and nursing care, should you ever need them. Entrance fees vary based on the specific residence and the number of people who will occupy it.

About The Monthly Fee

  • Your residence
  • Flexible dining plan
  • All services and amenities
  • Full access to all community events and programs
