A Great Value You Can Afford


Hillcrest Country Estates is carefully planned to be a great value for middle income people age 55 or better. You can enjoy many lifestyle perks and preserve a large portion of your capital at the same time, thanks to the Hillcrest refundable entrance fee program.

If you own your home, receive Social Security, and have a modest pension or investment income, you can readily afford to live at Hillcrest Country Estates. How is it possible? Hillcrest has developed a unique financial structure and an operating philosophy that enables the company to offer its customers unmatched value.

95% Refundable Entrance Deposit:



When you place your entrance fee at Hillcrest Country Estates, it is 95% refundable to you or your estate. So whether you someday decide to move, or if you live here for the rest of your life, 95% of your entrance fee will be returned to you or your heirs once your Signature Villa Home has been reoccupied. And the best part is we put our promises in writing. Hillcrest Health Systems is a well respected, financially stable and nationally recognized company. Locally owned and operated, we have been serving seniors in our community since 1967.

When a Villa is reoccupied, the appreciation on the returned entrance fee goes toward paying for community upkeep, further ensuring a strong return on investment. Hillcrest Country Estates will be continually refurbished and maintained. What does this mean for you? That you are guaranteed to find yourself in beautiful surroundings as long as you call Hillcrest home - and you won't have to lift a finger to maintain it!


The Signature maintenance of all Hillcrest communities prompts the development of long waiting lists. At Hillcrest Country Estates as soon as your Villa is  reoccupied, your entrance fee will be refunded to you or your estate. The entrance fee does not purchase any proprietary rights to any property. There are no real estate taxes or transfer taxes on either end of your move. This will save you or your estate thousands of dollars.

Priority Access to a Continuum of Care


The Entrance Fee entitles Residents to the occupancy of a Villa Home and priority access to our broad continuum of living options. This includes our health care facilities. If the need for such care should develop, Residents will be billed separately for those services.

This plan secures a fixed rate of return at a percentage (95%) that significantly exceeds that of most traditional entrance fee programs. Paying an Entrance Fee also reduces the monthly fee you would pay at a monthly rental community. With this plan, the initial investment you make to secure your Hillcrest Villa will be refunded at 95% to you or your heirs when you leave your Villa and it is re-occupied.

This means your initial purchase price procures a home at least 30% larger than most comparable residences as well as all Hillcrest Country Estates has to offer in terms of lifestyle and amenities. It also allows your legacy to remain intact for years to come.

A monthly service fee covers many services including interior and exterior maintenance, snow removal, lawn care, garbage disposal, real estate taxes and home insurance. Click here for a complete list of services.
