About our Company
Since 1986, we have been
working from a winning formula and our occupancy rate (for all
eight E•Quest® properties) is
proof
that we have it right.
In making the decision to enter the
retirement living business, the principals of our company knew
that this was not just another
real estate development operation. From the very start, our
focus was on senior adults and their wants, needs, and
desires.
E•Quest® is dedicated to providing the
finest neighborhood retirement living experience to independent
seniors.
Our
desire is to have our residents feel at home and enjoy such
a high level of comfort, friendship, and happiness
that they
will want to live in our neighborhood communities for
the rest of their lives.
With this philosophy as the foundation,
we began a serious study of the industry and of the world of
senior adults.
Over an extended
period, we researched 30 different retirement centers
and studied their operations in depth. We interviewed
residents,
staff,
corporate executives, potential residents and their
families, along with
doctors, bankers and retirement planners. During this
process, we discovered what worked in each of those
existing retirement
centers and built on those characteristics.
E•Quest
Management® has been in business for almost twenty years, but
our total management team brings
over seventy
years of
experience and a successful track record in retirement
housing operations
and services to senior adults.
