Elderly Roommates?

Posted by on Oct 30 2008 | General Thoughts

I received an interesting email today. I did not have an answer for the fellow, but he was basically asking about starting a home for “Elderly roommates.”  I thought it was a really great idea, but had never really heard about it before.   Maybe someone reading will have some insight for us.   His email was:

“Hi, I have a 3300sq ft. house that I would like to rent to elderly people in my community. I have heard that there are individuals in my community that would live together as roommates who rent a home.
My wife and I are high school teachers for the past 22 years in our community of Apple Valley,Ca”

    Hi,
    I’m 70,and, on social security.
    would like a roommate to share rent who is over 55.
    Any type is ok, as long as he can pay his share of
    rent. Prefer a male, who likes quiet.
