[quote=Anonymous]I’m an only, and eventually I persuaded my parents to move here. They bought a condo, on one level, with an extra bedroom that could eventually be used for a caregiver to sleep in. It also is a full service building with elevators, a staffed desk, and maintenance people. It’s five minutes away, and now that they are in their late 80s, it’s been useful for when they need my help with things like doctors appointments. We still have never needed anything more than some temporary assistance coming in to help my dad after one surgery. One thing to think about is that as an only, you will eventually wind up with that residence, so if you are able to kick in money to purchase a nice place, you will eventually get a return on that money and potentially a nice senior place for you to live when you no longer want to be in your house with stairs. At the very least it can become rental income. [/quote]
