Active Adult Centers Replacing Senior Centers
Many senior centers are being renamed as active adult
centers. The simple fact of it is that many people do not like being
called “senior citizens.” These people do not want to stop doing the
activities they enjoy. Age is just a number to these people. A
number which does not reflect their energy or desire to enjoy life to the
fullest.
LandArc specializes in the management of highly amenitized
active adult communities. Our portfolio includes several communities in
Michigan, North Carolina, and Georgia. Our commitment to providing a
fulfilling active lifestyle surpasses our competitors. Find us on
Facebook and Twitter to ask us any questions you might have about the property
management services we provide.

Spring Has Sprung
Now that spring is here and the last frost of the season
likely over, here are some things to watch out for in your association;
Property Signage: appearance is everything when it
comes to the home values in your association. The association sign is the
first thing people see upon entering an association. There were a lot of
instances this past winter where the snow would melt and then refreeze which
can weather your association sign as well as other signs throughout your
community. A routine inspection could save a lot of grief in the future
Concrete: freezing and refreezing can be especially
hard on concrete as well. When melted snow seeps into gaps and the
sidewalks and refreezes, it expands which creates cracks in the concrete.
Over time, the winter damage caused to concrete could be a potential safety
hazard. If someone were to fall on a crack in the concrete and get hurt,
the association would likely be held responsible. If you see concrete
damage in your association, contact LandArc at (888) 646-9888 and we will see
what can be done about it.
Pot holes: Winter can also be very hard on roads
creating pot holes in streets and parking lots. These could become
hazardous if not dealt with promptly.
Parking spaces: time and weathering can cause parking
spaces to fade. Is this an issue in your association?
Outdoor lighting: check to see if any street lights
or other external lighting is burnt out within your community.
Landscaping: LandArc has a strong working
relationship with our vendors. Now may be the time to address landscaping
needs within your association.
Security: ensure that all residents are aware of
security systems and procedures that are in place.
For any questions you might have, call LandArc at (888)
646-9888.
