ADUs are an excellent choice for your loved ones that are aging. While one can always send them away to assisted living facilities or nursing homes, nothing can replace the feeling of keeping them closer. Getting older has its challenges; with aging, our housing demands also change. BOSS’s ADU home kits can offer a great solution to help you age safely and peacefully. Customizing an ADU that is both safe and comfortable is possible if you choose the right construction and design.
Why is ADU The Right Choice for Senior Citizens?
ADU homes are permanent structures installed in any part of the backyard. The FM-approved and CA-certified ADU house kits come with a living space, a bedroom, a bathroom, and a kitchen. Besides, its spacious interior has 2” Title 24 Certified walls and 9-10 ft. high-vaulted ceilings, making it an ideal fit for aging parents, relatives, and in-laws. Furthermore, the added security features like double tempered glass windows, ADA-compliant doors, and a deadbolt locking system eliminating the chances of burglary and theft, make the ADU houses even more befitting. In addition, the pre-installed plumbing and electrical facilities make their life simpler and more convenient.
Aging in ADU Homes
Retirement life is never economical; for most, it is becoming out of reach. However, an ADU can help you age without any fears and hassles in the neighborhood where you would love to reside in two different ways.
- You can rent out your ADU home for some rental income to a tenant on a long-term lease of one year or as a short-term rental, like transforming it into an Airbnb.
- You can downsize by shifting into your ADU and renting your primary house. Ensuring a stable income is possible by renting your home rather than renting the ADU itself. Besides, you can also experience the fun of living in a new and compact house.
It doesn’t matter where you wish to rent your ADU or move into one and rent your home; either option will help you earn extra income, making it simpler for you to retire and minimize your working hours.
Design Choices
One can customize BOSS’s ADU home by considering mobility and aging. For example, you can add wheelchair accessibility or consider a single-story design to eliminate the need to climb stairs. Furthermore, one can also think of walk-in-showers and grab bars for safety purposes. A well-customized ADU offers senior citizens housing choices that enable them to stay closer to their families and enjoy independence and privacy. It further cuts down the requirement to choose an assisted living facility in the later stages.
Caregiver Support with ADU Homes
If you plan to take care of your aging parents and relatives, you can do so by installing an ADU in your backyard. ADU homes offer caregivers a sense of satisfaction, knowing that their loved ones are near, while they also experience complete independence. Furthermore, BOSS’s partnership with CustomFin makes ADU financing simple and economical.
