About Luther Village

In the mid-1980s the Shaw Company set out to design a retirement community unlike any other in Chicagoland. The master plan included ownership benefits for residents, superior residences, and an affiliation with a quality healthcare provider. The result was Luther Village, the first full-equity-ownership retirement community in the Midwest. Established in the Village of Arlington Heights in 1990, Luther Village offers a lush 55-acre campus with mature trees, walking paths, restful gardens and ponds, and a variety of spacious, beautifully appointed living options, including ranch-style Villas, Courtyard Homes and condo style buildings. An array of premier services and amenities are available at Wittenberg Commons, the hub of our beautiful campus. One of the best places to retire? Many think so. Luther Village is considered one of the finest over 55 communities in the state of Illinois.

What does Full-Equity with Cooperative Ownership Mean?

Luther Village’s residency model is just one of the things that makes it so special. The founders of Luther Village believed that seniors should not have to give up the benefits of home ownership in exchange for retirement living. Cooperative ownership means that:

  • You have the benefits similar to owning your own home, however you truly own stock in the entire community.
  • Instead of holding a title or deed, you own shares of stock in the Luther Village Owners’ Corporation.
  • Upon selling your residence, you or your estate realize the market value of your home instead of a partial refund of an entry fee or rental community.
  • Many premier amenities and services are available to the entire community at a comparatively lower per-capita cost.
  • You have an important voice in the community’s decision-making process.

This type of ownership is very different from those of traditional retirement communities offering a rental program or large entry fees.
