Residential Assisted Living in Johnson City, TN
My husband, Joe, and I listened to a podcast this week with Gene Guarino and was very impressed with his Residential Assisted Living model. This makes so much sense. We were just told this week that the reason most of our offers (full price and above!) are getting beat, is because there are so many seniors moving here to retire. It's true, Tennessee rates as one of the top places to retire. In Johnson City, we have the Quillen School of Medicine, the VA and a large medical industry. The cost of living is reasonable and the weather is very tolerable. (average year round temperature is 65 degrees, never too hot or too cold) It's a beautiful place to live and visit. We never get crazy snow here because the mountains deflect the bigger storms.
I think it could be a good fit. Anyone have any thoughts?
We are builders and would love to do the real estate side, but also have interest in the business side.

Call the Sheriff or Police. They will send a detective over to investigate and should arrange for quick removal of the body.
Meet them there to let them in, and possibly secure any firearms into your or their possession.
Easy process.
Good Luck!
That's more or less what happened. The guy had dementia and had escaped from a hospital. We ended up calling the Veterans Administration to give him his final resting place. I put his clothes in one of those Goodwill dropoff containers.
