Buying and selling in the Village
Laguna Woods Village consists of three housing corporations governed by three separate boards of directors: 第三拉古娜山互助保险公司, 联合拉古纳伍兹互助保险公司 and Mutual No. Fifty (commonly called the Towers). All prospective buyers are required to meet certain financial requirements as a condition of membership. Please see the sales packages below for more information.
Mutual No. Fifty (the Towers) is managed by Property Management Professionals. Visit thetowersatlagunawoodsvillage.com 了解更多信息。
The Resales Division processes all United Laguna Woods Mutual and Third Laguna Hills Mutual resale/membership applications from start to finish for board approval. Our membership counselors are responsible for receiving all resale/membership applications provided by escrow agencies and ensuring that all applications are complete and follow the guidelines imposed by the mutuals’ governing documents. Membership counselors are not realtors and do not provide advice on sales in the Village.
