I have recently been hearing form many people looking for "distressed" homes in Retirement Communities. I did some research and was pleased to discover that there are none that are short sales, foreclosures or pre-foreclosures. I then checked the previous listing history and also found that there has not been any. I am pleased to see that the foreclosure crisis is not the result of decision of our seniors!

This makes sense since our seniors are the most responsible amongst us. They actually have planned for a fixed income. Even if things did not turn out the way that was desired they do not place themselves in an unaffordable situation.
