When you purchase a cottage or apartment at Snyder Village, your investment guarantees you an equity refund based on your length of occupancy in our Retirement Community. Ten percent (10%) of your entrance fee goes directly toward our campus infrastructure, and 90 percent of your entrance fee is eligible for the guaranteed equity refund, according to the schedule below. (An additional 5 percent is deducted each year for a span up to nine years.)
Equity Refund Schedule (based on occupancy in the Retirement Community):
| Length of Residency | Refund | Length of Residency | Refund | |
| less than 1 year | 95% | 5-6 years | 70% | |
| 1-2 years | 90% | 6-7 years | 65% | |
| 2-3 years | 85% | 7-8 years | 60% | |
| 3-4 years | 80% | 8-9 years | 55% | |
| 4-5 years | 75% | 9 years | 50% |
Equity refunds are made payable to you or your estate upon the resale of the cottage/apartment or after 12 months, whichever is sooner.
