Del Web Performs Home Redesigns

In the past five years, Del Webb has used homeowner feedback to redesign model homes in two of their active lifestyle communities.  The neighborhood in Cane Bay was launched five years ago.  Using that same formula, Del Webb is continuing work in their Charleston location.  At present, 500 out of 1000 planned homes are open.  Del Webb is also seeking feedback from owners and users on the topic of home style changes and extras they would like to see.  For more information on this subject, click here.

A Shift in Perspective

A recent survey performed by Pulte group, parent company of Del Web, indicates a shift in traditional retirement views. According to their findings, many Americans continuing to work after retirement, staying close to home instead of streaking south to soak up some sun. This shift in retirement views over the years has prompted Del Webb, a California based company, to construct active lifestyle retirement homes further north in Michigan and Ohio and other Midwestern areas. With the bulk of the baby boomers generation approaching retirement, some are concerned about the fate of active lifestyle communities as this generation moves upward in age to the 80s and 90s. It really depends on how retirees wish to spend the rest of their lives: some prefer to continue performing work-based activities that they enjoy doing, and some have had enough of work, wanting nothing more than to settle down somewhere closer to family. To apply a well known cliché: “to each his own.”
