I was born and raised here, and have an elderly father who lives nearby, so I know I don't want to leave.

Quote from @Dianne Forwood: We just moved to take care of my elderly parents.

IS it an elderly/handicapped person, again may be hard to get them out? 

We are eager to help relative avoid being scammed as she is elderly and lacking awareness of processes not being a US citizen.

. #2 Sometimes it's an elderly person who has a lot of equity and who's taken care of the property but they want to sell without putting in upgrades (quartz countertops, new kitchen and bath).

There are a lot of facts about your situation that are missing from your story that are needed to make an informed opinion, therefore, I believe it's not reasonable to expect to receive any actionable advice on BP.Since you also write you're in your 70's, I suggest you look for an attorney, or a recommendation from a federal, state, local agency or private interest group (AARP comes to mind) for an attorney who specializes in elder abuse cases.Good luck.

I really don't care about the elderly passing away naturally in a house, even if I live in that house.

I am in preliminary negotiations with an elderly man (85 years old) to purchase a fourplex using owner financing. 

I started researching ways to buy homes less traditionally, and different loan programs for elderly, since they do not qualify for a mortgage with their DTI.

One thing to also kind of evaluate is how many family homes you have in the park vs single or elderly couples.
