Focusing on Universal Design Building

[Patrick Yungck]

My family use to own a multiple location medical DME company that we sold to a large hospital system awhile back and have been real estate investors since. Currently we are looking at the large number of baby boomers and older population who want to stay in their own home or move to another single family home instead of an assisted living facility and so on down the road. We have looked into building and outfitting homes with a Universal Design Aspect (wider doorways, stepless entry/showers, grab bars) all of which can be very aesthetically appealing to the eyes now days with the new manufacturers available. What I am getting at is do others see a need for this? Thanks!
