For example, I recently purchased a home from an elderly woman's estate.

She lives in Arizona on $500 a month in a elderly/ handicapped place and pays most of her monthly on rent.

The things we are considering; My son needs to live in his home for 4 months before renting it out [Nationwide insurance requirement] so he is planning on meeting his neighbors during that time, having coffee, lemonade, and cookies on the front porch and welcoming all to help themselves a couple hours a day, joining neighborhood watch, and he and my grandsons are already planning to ask a few of the elderly homeowners if it would be alright to paint or fix their fences or whatever [small stuff] Would these be good things?  

I have one property where the elderly tenant's daughter likes to come over and "improve" things for her mother.  

Dixon Flex RealtyI understand that we have to take care of our elderly parents but after a week of nothing happening I started pushing again:Kimberly Its been a week.

They are ranches with nobody above or below just beside and behind.Even though it is not technically a senior community about 90% are elderly.

Please bear in mind that you alone decide what type of residents you wish to accept, so elderly folks who can take care of most of their own needs are obviously less maintenance.  

(Before you guys jump on me, this guy is as sharp as a tack, and I would never take advantage of an elderly person anyways.)SO...

nothing wrong with it.. just not necessary.. that's all.. unless your dealing with the elderly  foreigners who English is second language etc.. then you want to make sure there is not abuse going on.. and of course in the wholesaling world this would NEVER happen.

I purchased a home from an elderly lady and found out later she thought a "nice family" was buying the property, which is why she accepted the offer without counter.
