Never before has home ownership been so easy. That’s because the Village Cooperative of Billings is a community for active adults 62+ who want home ownership without the maintenance, repairs or unexpected bills, and to be close to family and friends at an excellent value.
Jim and Terri Mourich, Village Cooperative members
“We pursued membership in the Village Cooperative because it is our best option to age gracefully — remain independent, active, socially engaged and travel frequently — plus it’s financially reasonable,” said Jim and Terri Mourich, Village Cooperative members.
The Village Cooperative of Billings is now under construction and features 58 homes in one bedroom, two bedroom and two bedroom with den designs built specifically for active adults — working or retired. The homes range in size from approximately 900 sq. ft. to over 1,500 sq. ft. of one-level living space in a three-story building built over secure underground parking. Those who reserve early will be able to choose their home plan and the interior finishes for their home to suit their style.

“We chose the Village Cooperative because we didn’t want any more house maintenance and issues like yard work, snow removal, appliance/plumbing/electrical repairs, surprise bills, exterior insurance and individual property taxes,” said Steve and Sallie Hildenburg, Village Cooperative members. “We look forward to more quality time for faith, family, friends and travel.”
That’s because the Village Cooperative is a community of peers who want to be active with other people their age, but not in assisted living or in a senior apartment. It offers maintenance-free living with all the benefits of home ownership and none of the headaches, plus many unique amenities that are suited for both working and retired residents. At the Village Cooperative, you are in control — all in a secure setting — to enjoy the things that matter to you without the worries of upkeep or repair bills.
The Mourichs added, “While we’re doing this earlier in life than we thought we ‘should,’ we’re finding the decision has been very helpful — downsizing and simplifying our lives, thus taking some unnecessary weight off our shoulders. Our family has been very supportive of the decision. In fact, our kids have been a catalyst in this move while we enjoy reliving memories during the process.”
