Find a community that feels like them

Loramae is an independent senior living advisor. We help your family compare independent living, assisted living and memory care communities, tour the best fits and choose with confidence. Communities never pay us, so our only goal is finding the right home for your parent.

An insider on your side

.Our team has led senior living communities as executive directors and run their sales and marketing teams. We know what makes a community great, what the brochure leaves out and which questions get honest answers.

How it works

  1. Get to know your parent. Personality, routines, hobbies, care needs, budget and where family lives.
  2. Narrow the field. We research and screen local options and bring you a short list worth seeing.
  3. Tour with confidence. We tour alongside you, ask the tough questions and compare notes afterward.
  4. Make the move easy. Understand the contract, plan the timeline and, if you'd like, hand the move to our downsizing team.

Two ways to work with us

Shortlist and Tour. Best for families who want expert screening and a focused search. We research and screen communities, then tour your final two or three picks with you. You'll get a side-by-side comparison plus guidance on contracts and move timing. $[price]

Full Tour Support. Best for families who want a pro at every step. We research and screen communities, then join you on every tour. You'll get a side-by-side comparison plus guidance on contracts and move timing. $[price]

Why no commissions matters

Many free senior living referral services are paid a referral fee by the community you pick, often a month's rent or more. That isn't a secret, but it can quietly limit which places you hear about. Loramae is paid only by your family, so every recommendation, including "let's wait a year," is based on what's best for your parent.

Questions we'll help you ask

  • What's included in the monthly fee, and what costs extra?
  • How much has the rent gone up in each of the past three years?
  • How is care assessed, and what happens when needs change?
  • How long have the staff and the director been here?
  • What does a typical Tuesday look like for residents?

Common questions

What's the difference between independent living and assisted living? Independent living offers a home with no upkeep, plus dining and social activities. Assisted living adds daily help with things like medications, bathing and dressing.

Can you help us look in another city? Yes. We can research and screen communities anywhere, and tour in person in the Kansas City metro and surrounding communities.
