Is Neighborly Senior Placement really free?

Yes. Families pay nothing. Neighborly is compensated by the senior-living community when a family chooses to move in — the same disclosed model reputable placement services use — so guidance stays free to you.

How does Neighborly get paid?

Communities pay a referral fee only after a successful placement. Neighborly works for the family, recommending the best fit regardless of which community pays.

What areas does Neighborly serve?

All nine San Francisco Bay Area counties: San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Sonoma, Napa, and Solano.

What types of care can Neighborly help with?

Assisted living, memory care (dementia), independent living, and residential care homes (board & care), plus guidance on higher levels of care.

How is a local placement advisor different from a national referral website?

A local advisor like Neighborly personally knows the communities, tours with you, and advocates for your family; national lead-generation sites often sell your contact information to many communities. Neighborly is local, independent, and free.

Assisted living, memory care & senior placement, guided by Bay Area experts.

Anita Varelas, CEO of Neighborly Senior Placement, was recently featured on Episode 5 of THE SENIOR BEAT where she sits down and discusses a variety of topics. Anita has successfully transitioned from a sales and marketing professional in the senior living industry to starting her own business, Neighborly Senior Placement. She and her team provide placement services for retirees who are looking to move from the family home into senior living. It’s a remarkably personal story that you will only find on THE SENIOR BEAT.

Anita goes over her 20+ year senior living journey and how she arrived at her current destination. She also takes a deep dive on a multitude of subjects and showcases her experience, knowledge, and leadership for senior living.
