Summertime, Summertime, Sum Sum Summertime. Ah, remember that golden oldie? It describes summer as the perfect time to “live it up and have some thrills.” Chances are, you know the song but have no idea who sang it.
Fun fact: Summertime, Summertime was the one and only breakout hit of the Jamies, led by siblings Tom and Serena Jameson, who invited us to “come along and have a ball.”
Surely, they were talking about the joys of joining an enthusiastic community on the Overture senior apartment property of your choice.
But even if they weren’t, there is no doubt summer is the perfect time to rightsize into one of Overture’s premiere active adult communities.
Ideal Moving Weather
Simply put: The weather is better in the summer. Winter in some locations can mean a moving day hampered by frigid temps and maybe even snow. Spring and fall moves in certain cities can find you battling heavy rains or even hurricanes. Summer’s warm dry days give you the best chance of a moving day focused on starting your exciting new life – not surviving the weather.
Summer is a Great Time to Sell
Summer is the ideal time to sell the family home. Your buyers will be trying to coordinate their move with their kids’ summer vacation, so they can be settled in and situated by the start of the school year.
Become Acclimated Before the Holidays
Selling the home in which you created decades worth of family holiday traditions can be fraught with emotion. Move into your active adult community in the summer, and you’ll have a chance to be happily ensconced in your new surroundings before the season begins. The only thing you’ll need to do is figure out what costume you want to wear to the Overture Halloween bash. By the time you are carving the turkey you’ll have a whole new gang with whom to make new holiday memories.
Get Into the Social Swing
When it comes to social connections, summer is considered prime time for mixing and mingling. The warmer weather means more outdoor community events and activities which means greater opportunities to turn new neighbors into friends. A summer arrival will facilitate easier integration into the Overture community. Once the weather turns cool, you’ll be hoisting a few at happy hour among familiar friendly faces.
Invite the Family to Visit
A summer move into active adult living means your kids and grandkids can come and check out your new digs - without hectic school schedules interfering. They will love your new upscale apartment, state-of-the-art facilities and resort worthy surroundings. Seeing you engaged and involved with a community that has your back will go a long way toward giving them peace of mind. They’ll know you are right where you belong.
Book a tour at the Overture senior apartment community of your choice today. Take advantage of the sunshine and long summer days to embrace a future filled with fun and friendship.
