A few reviews describe the financial structure as difficult, pointing to ongoing rent requirements until an apartment sells and concerns about buy-in amounts. Another reviewer notes the community can be expensive but feels the value is worth it. Pricing shown for different apartment sizes runs well below county and state benchmarks across the listed ranges, but reviews still emphasize the need to understand total long-term costs.
