Unless they are planning a ton of preventive health operations/community health outreach they are just putting a band-aid on a broken bone.   

But for health and safety reasons . 

Go get your own health insurance and retirement funds started.

So a mental health unit which determined  he needed services was unable to remove him!

One of the main drivers of this dilemma is the low 1bd/1ba garage conversion and $30k seems like a large cost for one element of a 350 sq ft conversion. 

In a climatic health resort area deep in the Bavarian Forest, where the air is clean, there is plenty of nature and real estate is affordable. 

If its going to make or break him, might be better for mental health to sell.Austin is a great market and Id be willing to bet the vacancy could be plugged quickly. 

Indy is affordable, is landlord friendly and has a diverse job market (FedEx, Eli Lilly, Indiana University Health are 3 major employers and there is starting to be a small tech presence).

So, you need to be prepared.Potential expenses to consider:Food, shelter, taxes, income taxes, fees, insurance, health insurance, medical emergencies, family, auto payments, auto insurance, utilities, cell phone, Internet, clothes, and pet care (if you have one).

According to the Fair Housing Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act:Even if a landlord has a no pet policy in place, the law does not consider service animals as pets and therefore the service animal is exempt from such a restriction.Service animals are allowed anywhere a person would go, including food areas that would normally restrict an animal’s presence.Landlords cannot charge a pet deposit or pet fee for service animals, however the tenant is liable for any damage that the service animal may cause.Landlords can require written verification from the tenant’s health care provider that they are disabled but cannot ask for any specifics about the disability.Landlords can require written verification from the tenant’s health care provider that the service animal is needed.Landlords can request copies of the animal’s health records to prove the animal is in good health, parasite-free and immunized/vaccinated.Landlords can write warnings or even evict a tenant with a service animal if the animal is disturbing others, posing a threat to others or causing considerable damage to the property.In other words, you can ask for appropriate paperwork concerning the tenant’s need for the service animal and to verify the animal’s health.
