June is National Homeownership Month in America and every year the Department of Housing and Urban Development sets a theme to celebrate this traditionally important step in the lives of so many people.
2018’s theme is “Find Your Place,” which is also very apropos for active adults looking for a home in a 55+ or active lifestyle community. No matter what stage in your life, you’re always looking for your place. While that may change over the years, we here at 55places.com enjoy helping people find that specific place so they can stop searching and get back to enjoying life.
Over the years we’ve offered up plenty of homeownership advice, trends to look for, and potential places to live. We’ve compiled a list of some of the posts that fit for National Homeownership Month and the “Find Your Place” theme. Wherever you are in the homebuying process, we hope you find some of the information below helpful.
