About Rose Senior Living

Over the span of 100 years and four generations, Edward Rose & Sons has been dedicated to designing and building residences of value that truly feel like home.


Beginning a century ago in Detroit with the goal of bringing quality, affordable housing options to families, our company has evolved over the decades from being the premier single-family home builder in Michigan to one of the most highly respected developers of multi-family apartment homes in the entire country, with over 65,000 units built throughout the Midwest and South.

Home is Family.


As the patriarch of our company, Edward Rose became known as the “Dean of Detroit Builders” and went on to be inducted into the National Association of Homebuilders National Housing Hall of Fame in 1983, sharing the honor with such luminaries as Presidents Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, and Jimmy Carter. Quite an achievement for a Russian immigrant who arrived in the U.S. with his brother at the age of 11 in 1907.   

With the creation of Rose Senior Living, we’ve expanded our company’s vision to the development of retirement communities that provide all the comforts of home and celebrate the warmth and vitality of family.

Yes, home and family.

These are the things in life that are most important to us because we’re a family ourselves. Edward Rose & Sons is not just a name emblazoned on a sign or etched on a business card. We’re an actual family that truly cares about the homes we create, the communities we build, and the experiences of the people who live in them. We’re committed to carrying on the legacy of Edward Rose himself, who, in 1952, said this about the values of our company:

“It is a great responsibility—a privilege, an opportunity—to contribute something to the American way of life, and so we approach our task humbly and sincerely and in good faith.”

Those words, expressed by our founder all those decades ago, continue to inspire us each and every day.
