Tip for Paying for Washington Senior Living: Reverse Mortgages
Paying for a senior living facility is a certain investment, but thankfully, nowadays there are numerous ways to finance this cost. If the individual moving into a senior living facility’s spouse still resides in their home, you can take out a reverse mortgage and convert a portion of the home’s equity into cash to pay the senior living facility. This is a common and viable option for many seniors.

The good news – there are plenty of senior living facilities to choose from in Washington. Not only is the selection wide, but Washington has some exceptional centers that receive rave reviews. Choosing just 9 was actually a challenge. We looked up all the reviews on Google and Facebook for senior living facilities listed on our site, and combined them with ratings and comments from our own visitors. Our team also investigated the Washington State Dept. of Social and Health Services for violations and complaints for long-term care residential options.

Judson park is by far the best place hands down! My father in law recently had to spend a few weeks to recover and get PT. The staff was so friendly and gave updates when they could and answered any questions in a timely manner. If we ever need to have skilled nursing again, we will gladly choose them!!! Thank you wonderful Judson park staff!!

My mom and dad moved into Bonadventure about 4 months ago with their little dog Annie. It’s just been a delightful, happy experience for both my folks and for Annie. The staff and the residents are so loving. We hear nothing but good reports. My parents are in their 90s and look younger and more fit since their move! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our cherished parents! We’re all so grateful!
