Welcome to San Antonio, Texas. There’s plenty of room- and they’re waiting for you.

Fortune Magazine has compiled a list of the top 5 places to retire, and sitting comfortably on the list is San Antonio, TX. The magazine points out that, “Hill Country is only about a half-hour drive north,” and, “the Gulf of Mexico is a day trip.” With no state-income tax, Texas boasts the fourth-lowest personal tax burden in the country. And the housing market? While other markets experienced double-digit drops in housing prices, San Antonio lost just 5%, and, according to a local real-estate agent, is nearing its bottom. San Antonio is a safe place to invest in real estate.

Now, you’ve settled on San Antonio as the place for your retirement roots, and now you need to find a home. You can decide to build a house from the ground-up, or you may decide on a cozy, established home. Either way, Gravell and Company, a San Antonio home builder, would like to extend a hand and say, “Welcome.”

Gravell and Company has completed several construction and remodel projects on homes in Boerne, a friendly neighbor to San Antonio, in Alamo Heights TX, and is close to completion on a project in Cordillera Ranch, an exclusive, resort-style home and golf community.

And if you decide on an established home, you’ll need to make some key considerations for your health and physical limitations. You may not have special physical requirements when you first move into the house, but as you age, ever-so-gracefully, you may begin to need more accommodating…accommodations. Wouldn’t it be a dream if you could remain in the home you have purchased, having necessary design modifications built into your home- without you even having to leave during the process? And, if so, you’ll want a reliable, trust-worthy construction consulting management firm who is knowledgeable, competent, certified, and up for the job.

Gravell and Company is a certified San Antonio custom builder, who has received the elite CAPS certification – Certified Aging-In Place Specialist. A Certified Aging-In Place Specialist is one who will work with your occupational and physical therapists and physicians to design specific home modifications for your physical needs. And, again, they can perform this necessary remodel without you having to even leave your home! This way, as your physical abilities change over time, as they so often do, you will never have to leave that little nest you’ve dreamt so long about.

So, no matter if you’re looking for homes in Boerne, San Antonio, Cordillera Ranch, or Alamo Heights TX, Gravell and Company can offer a helping hand in finding, building, or remodeling your retirement home so that you may enjoy what you worked so hard for all those years, your time to do whatever you want.
