A furnished room you can afford on a fixed income.
One monthly occupancy fee covers your furnished room, utilities, and Wi-Fi. One community fee to move in, no utility setups, and no furniture to buy. Just a stable place to live, with written house rules and a local team that answers.
Most housing isn't built for a fixed monthly check.
When your income is the same every month, the hard part usually isn't the monthly cost. It's everything that comes before and around it.
Move-in costs add up first
Up-front move-in costs, utility setups, and furniture can cost more than a whole month of income before you sleep there one night.
Bills change every month
Electric, water, gas, and internet go up and down, and a fixed income doesn't.
Living alone is a lot to manage
Every repair, bill, and errand lands on you, with no one around.
Furnished living, made simple.
Bloom Essentials is built around one idea: you should know exactly what housing costs you each month, and the basics should already be handled.
A furnished room, ready on move-in day
Your room comes furnished, so you can move in with your clothes and personal things.
Utilities and Wi-Fi included
Electric, water, gas, and internet are part of your monthly occupancy fee.
One simple community fee
A one-time $300 community fee covers getting your room ready and your move-in supplies.
Shared kitchen, living areas, and laundry
A full home to live in, not just a room.

What a month costs, side by side.
For adults who live independently and don't need daily personal or medical care, a full-care setting can mean paying for care you don't use. Here is how Bloom compares with Texas median costs.
Texas figures are statewide medians from the CareScout 2025 Cost of Care Survey for Texas (released March 2026): assisted living $67,200 a year and a semi-private nursing home room $67,525 a year, divided by 12. Local prices vary by community. Bloom fees are starting rates; optional Household Support is billed separately.
With support added: a Bloom Essentials companion room ($750) plus Enhanced Household Support ($749) comes to about $1,499 a month. Household Support is help around the house, not a substitute for the care an assisted living community or nursing home provides.
An honest note: Bloom House Living is not assisted living or a nursing home, and our team doesn't provide hands-on personal care, medications, or nursing care. Residents who qualify can receive in-home services from a licensed provider they choose. If someone needs round-the-clock care, a licensed care setting is the right choice, and we're glad to help you think through options.
If we're not the fit, we'll help you find one.
We work with referral partners across East Texas. If a Bloom home isn't the right fit, or a room isn't open when you need it, we'll help you look at other placement options instead of leaving you with a no.
Families, hospital and facility discharge planners, case managers, and supervising officers can all start with one call: 903-686-1804.
Housing first. Help when you need it.
- A bus pass for your first 30 to 60 days
- Help signing up for SNAP (food benefits), Medicaid, Medicare, and insurance
- If you qualify for in-home care through Medicaid or insurance, we help you apply. You pick your own licensed provider.
- Connections to local programs, clinics, and community help

Good to know: Bloom House Living is shared housing where you live on your own, under a license-to-occupy agreement. It isn't an assisted living facility, nursing home, treatment program, or halfway house. We don't help with bathing, dressing, toileting, or medicine, and we don't provide nursing, 24-hour supervision, or emergency response. If you need that kind of care, you pick your own licensed provider.
Run locally, by people who know fixed incomes.
Bloom House Living is a collection of homes run by JDE Housing Solutions, a local East Texas company founded by Jessilyn Z. Edwards. Before housing, Jessilyn worked in healthcare benefits and insurance, including Medicare, Medicaid, and benefits navigation, so she knows how fixed incomes and paperwork really work. When you call, you reach the local team that runs the homes.
Good to know.
Is this a lease?
No. Residency is under a license-to-occupy agreement with written house rules, not a lease.
What is the community fee?
A one-time community fee is due before move-in: $300 for Bloom Essentials and $650 for Bloom Signature. It covers getting your room ready and your move-in supplies.
Do I need to earn 2 to 3 times the monthly fee?
No. Many apartments ask for income of 2 to 3 times the monthly cost. We don't. Your income needs to cover your monthly occupancy fee, and we review every situation individually.
What if Bloom isn't the right fit?
We work with referral partners across East Texas. If a Bloom home isn't the right fit, or a room isn't open, we'll help you look at other placement options.
Is Household Support required?
No. Household Support is optional, not medical care, and billed separately from the occupancy fee.
Can I get help with bathing, dressing, or other daily care?
Our team doesn't provide hands-on personal care. If you qualify for in-home attendant services through Medicaid or insurance, we'll help you apply, and you choose your own licensed provider.
What's included besides the room?
Every resident gets a 30- to 60-day bus pass to get started, help applying for and renewing SNAP, Medicaid, and Medicare, and referrals to local programs.
Do you accept SSI or VA?
Yes. We accept SSI, SSDI, Social Security retirement, VA, pension, employment income, and approved program payments.
Is help available with the housing cost?
Ask about a Housing Contribution Review during your free review. A review doesn't guarantee assistance, approval, or a specific amount.
Can a case manager start the process?
Yes. Case managers can use the Partner Referral & Triage form or call 903-686-1804.
