I guess she told the bank that they were willing to let the house go into foreclosure, but had an investor, me, willing to assume the loan, which the bank was fine with and even agreed to discount the property (not sure how much), since many of the doors and walls are torn up for her wheel chair.

Avery,I am in Montreal, I have learned there is a particular market that is under served in the wheel chair accessible living segment. ie: larger bathrooms, ramps, easy to open door.

Cane or wheelchair 

The lower unit is ADA equipped for a wheelchair user, and will require about 5-7K in repairs to convert it back to a non-disabled use apartment. 

Fair housing means you can't use these classes as your basis for choosing not to rent to them.As far as the handicapped, what if someone in a wheelchair wanted to rent my house, but there's no access due to stairs?

I was wondering if anyone in the Atlanta area can give me a contact for getting a house retrofitted for a wheelchair?

Mom got brain cancer and I need to be close to her, a job relocation, my kid got injured and is now permanently in a wheelchair and the old house isn't wheelchair friendly, old house burned down, etc, are what we're looking for.The other alternative, depending on how much it'll cost you, etc, would be to refinance the duplex into investment property financing with a closing concurrent to the FHA purchase closing.

I love the idea of using it on my garage floor.PROTECTS• Fences • Gates • Decks •  Foundation • Ponds• Patios, Porches & walkways • Basements •  Bathrooms • Garage floors • Dog Runs & Kennels • Wheelchair  Ramps • Stairs • Swingsets • Patio Furniture • Sheds

Now with the carpets out and fresh paint on the walls (done after the pictures below were taken), it smells much better :)This is a picture from an MLS listing from 2010:  Here it is today, after my husband demo'd the wheelchair ramp:We're planning to paint the exterior trim Greek Vanilla (SW) and replace the shutters with black vinyl.  

For example, attorneys that meet with clients that are ill/injured and in wheelchairs.
