I absolutely love my place and my neighbors are very nice. So far it's been a very pleasant experience..I would also like to say that I believe we as the community of Larc at Burien, I would like to see our community have a Larc at Burien Advisor Group<br>We would reach out to our community and come up with ideas to help improve our community, help with trash, cleaning of the common area.. Help out our community to the best community in the world.<br>It will allow our community members to feel involved.....We live here around the clock when we see a wrong being committed I have a community representative that I can report it to and in turn that Rep can report it to the Leasing office and they will finalize the issue.....Love to see this work for the Larc at Burien

We moved in on Oct 2024 and thus far it’s not been too great!! The rain comes through breezeway and lands right in front of our door! We have gotten a squeeshy to get rid of all the standing water. This is a 55+ community and they can’t figure out a way to help us with this problem! My husband is 73 and doesn’t work for this place but everytime it rains he’s the one having to deal with this so we can just come out our front door!<br>No one really seems to care about the problem whatsoever.. We are not on any assistance for housing we pay FULL RENT TO THE TUNE OF 1900 dollars a month and this is not ok!<br>Stay away from this place…….

Washington asks us to share this statement and gather a short intake first

Read the statement, add what you can below (a few words each, all optional), and Send signs it with the name you entered.

Washington disclosure statement, dated October 26, 2026, under the Elder and Vulnerable Adult Referral Agency Act (RCW 18.330).

(a) Agency: MyLivingChoice LLC (MyLivingChoice.com), 8705 N. Cypress Ct, Kansas City, MO 64156, (816) 226-7772.

(b) Client: the person sending this request.

(c) Fees: you pay us nothing. If you move into a community we introduced you to, that community pays us a referral fee computed as a percentage of your first month's rent and care charges, invoiced to the community after you move in. If you ask, we will tell you the amount of the fee for any community we refer you to.

(d) Services: MyLivingChoice is a free service that helps families find senior living. We gather a short intake about the care needed, suggest communities that appear able to meet those needs, and introduce you to the ones you choose. For you specifically, we will introduce you to LARC at Burien and share with it your name, contact details and the care needs you described, nothing more.

(e) We will never ask you to waive any claim for loss of personal property or injury, or any right you have under state or federal law.

(f) We work with both you and the community in the same transaction: the community pays us, and we are introducing you to it. To obtain or share confidential health care information about the person who needs care we need your authorization, which you give for the communities named above by acknowledging this statement.

(g) Tours: we do not tour communities as a matter of course. Our information comes from the community itself, its state licence record and public sources. We have not toured LARC at Burien.

(h) You may stop using our service, or switch to another referral agency, at any time and for any reason, with no penalty and no cancellation fee.

(i) Refunds: because you pay us nothing, there is nothing to refund to you. If a community pays us a fee for your placement and the resident dies, is hospitalized or moves to another setting for more appropriate care within the first thirty days after admission, we refund the community a prorated share of the fee for the days not used, as RCW 18.330.090 requires.

(j) Complaints about a referral agency may be filed with the Washington State Office of the Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division (Consumer Resource Center), 800 5th Ave, Suite 2000, Seattle, WA 98104-3188, 1-800-551-4636 in Washington, 1-206-464-6684 from outside the state, https://www.atg.wa.gov/file-complaint.

(k) Neither MyLivingChoice nor anyone who works on referrals for it, nor their immediate family members, has any ownership interest in any community we refer families to.

About the care that is needed (optional, a few words each)

We share with the communities you chose only your name, contact details and care needs; the rest stays with us. Leave blank what you do not know; we can fill it in with you later.

Sending your request signs the Washington statement above with the name you entered, dated now, and authorizes us to share your name, contact details and care needs with the communities or agencies you chose. By submitting, you're okay with us and LARC at Burien reaching out by phone, email or text.Always free for families. If you move in, the community you chose pays us a referral fee, never you; any nearby communities we suggest are chosen by your answers, never by what they pay us. Referral agreements are our only tie to the communities we list. If a community stops meeting our qualifications, for example its licence lapses or it stops accepting referrals, we stop suggesting it. How we work · FAQ
