How do I become a resident?
With such an attractive destination and at such reasonable costs, CRF drives a lot of interest. Our professional sales and management teams are here to assist future residents in every part from touring to purchasing to residency. To maintain the level of quality and security we are known for, all potential residents must pass a criminal background check and agree to the community’s set rules and regulations. We not only uphold these standards but are proud to live by them. Call us today for more information: 866-370-1581.
When deciding where to spend your retirement, we know that having your furry best friend is of the utmost importance. Our 55+ communities are pet-friendly, though we do have some regulations. To get more information on CRF’s pet policies and see some of our residents enjoying time with their dogs, click here. 
Each of our 15 locations is within an hour’s drive to some of Florida’s top attractions, such as Disney World, Busch Gardens, and coastal beaches, to name a few. You are sure to find numerous local downtown shops, cinemas, events, and restaurants just outside the gates of your new community. Click here for details.
Having the weather for year-round golf is just one of the fantastic perks of spending your retirement in the state of Florida. Many of our 55+ communities feature golf courses. Please visit our golf page here to see a complete list of locations, fees, and green difficulty levels.
We have positioned ourselves in a very convenient area in the state, but that does not mean you have to travel outside the community’s gated entrance to enjoy the best of Florida! Each community presents its own set of amenities and planned activities that you are sure to enjoy with like-minded, friendly neighbors in an active yet peaceful setting. You can find swimming pools, Jacuzzi spas, shuffleboard courts, golf, restaurants, and so much more in CRF Resale communities. Click here for details.
What is the weather like in Central Florida?
Comfortable year-round temperatures are one of the main reasons Central Florida is a top destination for retirees from all over the country. With an average winter high of 72 degrees and a typical summer day of 92 degrees, being outdoors year-round is not uncommon. Our wonderful weather is why alfresco activities and events are in abundance in The Sunshine State.
Florida is full of beautiful locations and fun activities, and that can make it difficult to pinpoint the best area to build your retirement. Just remember, the one thing that sets any retirement community apart from another is the company behind the community. The owner and employee’s pride and dedication to offering quality service and products should be significant in this exciting decision-making process. CRF Communities has been providing 55+ adults with numerous lifestyle options at affordable prices for over 30 years. Family-owned and operated, CRF Resales offers you 15
distinct Central Florida locations from which to choose. This unbelievable selection and unmatched commitment to excellence assure you that you can find your dream Florida retirement with CRF Resales. Read more HERE
On our website, we regularly showcase “featured homes.” These homes are hand-selected and allow you to enjoy reduced sale prices and lot rents! Combining these two discounts can often be the little bit of grace you need when beginning your retirement in Florida, and we are happy to present them to you in our weekly emailed newsletter. Please view our current selection here.
Who owns the land?
In our communities, residents own their home and rent the lot it sits on. Professional community management and use of the amenities in the community are included in your monthly lot rent. Competitively priced pre-owned homes and affordable lot rent give you the financial freedom to enjoy your Florida retirement at CRF Resale Communities.
What is a manufactured home?
Manufactured homes are a staple in Florida retirement because they continue to be the perfect way to accomplish both quality and affordability. This home style is constructed in a factory following strict federal codes and, once placed in the community, maintained according to CRF’s own high standards. Resales ranging from $5,000 to $150,000 allow you to have a fantastic location and lifestyle while remaining within a comfortable budget.
