My mother is elderly and I'd like to build a one-bedroom ADU for her in my backyard.

My husband and I recently moved to take care of my elderly parents.

An individual owner, (often elderly) lacks the savvy, contacts, guts... and they fall into a soupy battle to reclaim the property.

A significant number of those are scams but the problem is it's very difficult to prove it's a scam.Therapy dogs - those are dogs trained to comfort elderly or terminally ill people at hospices, hospital, nursing homes, those are not specifically linked to an owner and are not protected by reasonable accommodation.Working dogs - those are police K9, trained to sniff bombs, track and retrieve, guard etc...and also are not protected by reasonable accommodation.Technically, IMO, you can't say they lied by not disclosing their pet or dog because they can say they don't think of it as a pet or regular dog, it's an ESA. 

Elderly mother can help with $ but is not rich herself and obvi taking retirement $ from one's parents is a worst-case scenario.

The HOA needs to think this through or be sued for discriminating against the disabled or elderly.

You should have had a plan in place pre-closing.What age elderly 60's, 90's?

Has anyone here owned section 202 (SUPPORTIVE HOUSING FOR THE ELDERLY PROGRAM) apartments?

The elderly  (87 yr) owner passed away at home.

He had several large homes that he rented rooms out to elderly tenants who needed assistance.
