Flipping for Home Buyers with Special Accomodation Needs
I have noticed that most flips are not done to accommodate persons that use (no particular order) wheelchairs, low-height counters, access-ramps, handrails (hallways, bathrooms, et.al.), special sound-proofing (PTSD patients), and visually enclosed backyards (special-need dog care). I wonder if this a market-niche that has been overlooked, especially considering the needs of the many returning veterans and their families, along with the many other folk encountering life challenges in their home.
I can only assume that folk buy a "standard" home, and then spend money after to renovate. However, if I am demolishing a bath or kitchen, that would be the ideal time to make such adjustments, and offer those [many?] buyers an actual move-in-ready (for their need) home, correct?
Please share your thoughts. All the Best.
