I also have one Tenant who is elderly and now no longer has a bank account of her own, whose Cousin pays her rent directly since she no longer is bankable according to banks.

( RI has: Elderly Homeowner's Tax Credit Program) There are a couple layers of things to consider here. 

I have told my tenants that I was planning on converting the garage since February, and kept on updating them over the last few months that yes the conversion is indeed happening, this is the date to expect it to start etc.Due to their own personal circumstances, they brought an elderly parent over to the rental unit, along with a bunch of stuff that they are storing in one of my garages (that I will be converting).

Most of the other neighbors are elderly and don't seem to want to get involved. 

A big issue when prop 13 was up for voting was also that property taxes were going up so much so fast that the elderly were being taxed at a rate that they could no longer afford to live in the home they had lived in for decades. 

I have investments in elder care and memory care homes. 

Also this lady is elderly, and would probably pass the remainder of the loan off to her children.

I have some elderly family members who have about 20-25 units in Sweetwater.  

An elderly friend owns an undeveloped parcel of land with timber not far from Charlotte. 

Unfortunately many elderly folks do not want to sell until after one spouse passes and the $250k does not make it work, especially if there was a refinance or HELOC or medical bills.
