BEWARE! I moved to Bethlen in November 2020. Concordia Lutheran Ministries bought the place in May 2023. In their first 20 months of ownership, they have raised my rent over 42%. We're a Retirement Community, for heaven's sake, living on fixed income and savings. That doesn't seem to be a very Christian way of doing business.<br>Update: The total increase will be over 59% on January 1, 2026. That's less than 3 years!
