"Come as Strangers, Live as Friends®"
Modern maintenance-free senior living in fast-growing Ankeny. Pet-friendly apartments with state-of-the-art amenities, vibrant activities, and a welcoming community—just minutes from Prairie Trail and Des Moines.
I'm a REALTOR® — Sarah Ingles, REALTOR® SRES® CPCU®. My job is to sell your existing Des Moines metro home on a timeline that lines up with your Connect55+ lease, including pre-listing prep where my CPCU® background lets me flag insurability red flags (roof age, older wiring, vacancy gaps) and refer you to three licensed insurance producers, pricing strategy, and a closing date you can hold to.
Apartment availability, pricing, lease terms, and tour scheduling all run through Connect55+'s on-site team — not through me. Call them at (515) 269-0055 or stop by the leasing office at 1225 SW 28th St, Ankeny.
Two clean lanes. The community handles the apartment. I handle the house you're leaving.
I'm an independent REALTOR®. I'm not affiliated with Connect55+ Ankeny and take no fee from any community; Connect55+ Ankeny answers its own availability and pricing, and I handle the house. Prices on this page are as the community last published them, not rechecked by me; ask it for today’s rate, what’s included, and any entrance or community fee. Within 1 business day, by email: what your current home would likely net, the timeline that fits a move-in date, and what to fix first or leave alone.
Tours are booked directly with the community. Prefer to talk first? Book a 30-minute call or call (563) 513-8771.
