QUESTION

55 plus community

Asked on May 07th, 2023 on Residential Real Estate - Michigan
More details to this question:
A home was purchased in a 55 plus community. Was told to all the people that purchased homes in the community that it was 55plus. Even the flag out front of the gated area said 55 plus community. Now the owners, a corporation from out of state is putting in multiple homes and told the existing owners that they have to let in families under the age of 55. What can be done to stop this?

The right to be able to do this depends on what the deeds and any Association documents say. Your group will want to have a real estate attorney (like me!) look at the relevant documents and advise your group if you have the legal ability to get an injunction enjoining the developer from doing this. The fact the current owners purchased their homes with the 55+ limit is key to asserting your rights here. I doubt you can succeed without legal counsel. Good luck to you and please be in touch if I can be of further assistance.
