What's Inside

A financial guide, not a brochure.

Eleven chapters walking through the numbers, contract types, and timing considerations that make CCRCs worth a serious look — from a financial standpoint, not just a lifestyle one.

01

2026 Type A pricing, in full.

Exact entrance fee ranges (traditional and 90% refundable), monthly fees, and second-person pricing for Life Care contracts at North Oaks.

02

Type A vs. Type C, explained.

How Life Care and Fee-for-Service contracts differ in upfront cost, monthly predictability, and long-term financial risk — with three real-world profiles.

03

The Maryland market context.

Private-pay assisted living and skilled nursing rates in Maryland — and why Life Care can stabilize those costs for the long term.

04

Why timing matters more than most people think.

How health qualification, pricing lock-in, and asset positioning all favor earlier decisions — and what waiting actually costs.

05

Tax considerations for CCRC residents.

Which portions of entrance fees and monthly fees may qualify as prepaid medical expenses, and how to frame the conversation with your CPA.

06

A financial planning framework.

Five questions to answer — cash flow, asset segmentation, longevity stress-testing, care-cost exposure, and estate alignment — before deciding.
