Making the future your number one priority

As the temperature rises, so does priority list membership at Devonshire, an Erickson Living community at PGA National.

"Before heading back north, many seasonal snowbirds join our priority list in the hopes of calling Devonshire their new home when they head back to Florida later this year," says Personal Moving Consultant Donna Schneider. Joining the priority list is the only guaranteed way to reserve a future home at this premier community, while also providing exclusive access to information such as price adjustments and apartment home availability.

"With so much to gain and nothing to lose, it's one of the best steps you can take in securing a happy, healthy, exciting future," says Schneider. For those wishing to learn more about the priority list, Schneider offers the following top five rea-sons why Devonshire's priority list remains one of South Florida's most exclusive memberships.

1. No-risk investment

Joining the Devonshire priority list requires a fully refundable $1,000 deposit and a $150-per-person, non-refundable application fee. When a prospective community member submits their deposit, that date is noted as their priority list date. Once their preferred floor plan style be-comes available, the sales team gives first right of refusal to priority members based on their joining date. There is no penalty should the preferred apartment home become available before a prospective res-dent is ready to move. It is simply offered to the next member on the list, and priority list status remains the same. In addition, there is no penalty should a member choose to leave the priority list. The $1,000 deposit is returned.

2. Peace of mind for the future

Not only does joining the priority list guarantee that a sought-after home at Devonshire will be available when the member is ready to move, but it also provides peace of mind for whatever the future holds. As a life care community, people who live at Devon-shire know that, should circumstances ever change, they will have the care they need at Chatsworth, Devonshire's continuing care neighborhood.

3. Exclusive access to experts

Another big benefit of joining the priority list is access to Erickson Realty and Moving Services and a team of experts whose number one priority is helping prepare homes for sale, finding the right real estate agents, downsizing, packing, and moving. The Devonshire sales team hosts a variety of seminars aimed at providing priority list members with the tools they need to make their moves seamless and stress-free.

4. Special, members-only events

Devonshire has always accommodated priority list members in the same way they pamper current residents. Before the coronavirus pandemic, priority list members enjoyed numerous opportunities to meet and talk with staff members and Devonshire community members at a variety of members-only events. Devonshire staff is already working on a comprehensive plan for post-pandemic events.

5. Gift of time

Because joining the priority list does not necessitate an immediate move, members enjoy whatever time they need to research similar communities, talk with friends and family members, and consider all their options before making this important decision. For those who know, without a doubt, that Devonshire is their future home, the time spent on the priority list provides the opportunity to consider floor plan options, select custom features, and plan for their upcoming move.
