1

Are we a Fit for You?

Learn about Upside

Estimated Time: 15 minutes

We’re not a traditional senior care facility— By becoming an Upside Member, we help you find the apartment you want and need. Then, Upside provides the home services that will make your life easier. If you’re hoping to age in place, you also have the option to just apply for an Upside membership. We will complete a safety inspection to make sure you’re aging in the right place for your needs. You can skip to Step 3.

2

Evaluate Your Options

Find My Apartment

Estimated Time: 3-5 hours

After speaking to an Advisor, our Real Estate team will hand select apartment options that fit your wants and needs. We will share locations, floor plans, starting price, amenities, and virtual tours to help you narrow the search. If you’re interested in a particular apartment, we will arrange an in-person tour within 24 hours. (If you’re coming from out of state, we can book multiple.)

We Handle the Paperwork

Apply to Join

Estimated Time: 1-3 Days

Once you pick your apartment, we will help you apply, and we will submit your application for an Upside membership. Please note: Your apartment is not owned by Upside. But we will help you make arrangements and manage your lease. If you’re choosing to age in place, we can manage your home in the same way.

Welcome to the Community

Move-in

Estimated Time: Up to 30 Days

Your dedicated Upside Manager will help coordinate your move. So you can enjoy getting settled in your new place without having to worry about technology, utilities, and getting your keys.

What makes us different from standard apartment living?

Dedicated Upside Manager

Your personal concierge. Reduce stress and responsibility with our Upside Manager. Available to handle your needs from basic to complex. We’re experts at coordinating grocery delivery, transportation, insurance benefit utilization, crisis management and more. We help with simple tasks such as resetting your Netflix password or more tedious jobs such as helping navigate health insurance.

One-Bill Simplicity

Ditch the mail and tracking of many different bills. Upside’s easy to read bill consolidates everything in one easy to make payment at the end of the month.

Community

Want to get involved? Your Upside Manager will help match you to gatherings and events around the community. They’ll also connect you with activities that other members are participating in.

Optional Housekeeping Services

You should be spending your free time doing what you love, whatever that is! Leave the housework to someone else and focus on the most important things to you. By adding on housekeeping services, older adults can maintain a clean and organized home without the stress and strain of doing it themselves. A tidy home can reduce the risk of falls or accidents and can also provide peace of mind, knowing that their living space is safe and sanitary. Upside offers discounted access to regularly scheduled housekeeping services.

Optional Cable & Internet

With bulk pricing available all Upside members in partner apartments, you can get the basic cable and high-speed internet you need to stay connected without the hassle of paying multiple monthly bills. Plus, with available technology support through your personalized Upside Manager, you never have to worry.

Optional Companion Visits

One of the key differentiators about Upside apartments is that they are intergenerational. You won’t be confined to living with only older individuals on a single campus. Instead, you have the freedom to create organic relationships with people of all ages, races and gender. But, if you still need additional companionship, your dedicated Upside Manager can help you set up with Papa Pal® visits for companionship and assistance with everyday tasks.

Optional Meal Delivery

While we don’t offer a traditional dining plan, we can help coordinate on-demand grocery and meal delivery to save you time and energy. Your Upside Manager can set everything up, so all you have to do is answer the door and enjoy.

Optional Transportation

One of the perks of living in a premium Upside apartment is the proximity to exciting community events, experiences of interest and more. Get on-demand transportation scheduled by your Upside Manager.
