Healthy Family Aging Begins at Home

It is important to concerned ourselves about healthy family aging and aging-in-place by adding and modifying our home space.  We must think of the challenges ahead and draft a list of recommendations for addressing those challenges.

Keep your home and focus on Aging-in-Place Needs.

"Aging" refers to young, middle age, and elderly and anywhere else in between.

Jane Brody writing in the New York Times cited a AARP survey showing that almost 90% of people 65 or older plan to stay in their homes as they age.  Also, younger generations fearing high moving costs are finding STAYING PUT provides for a less stressful life.

Tremendous housing innovations developed during the last decade allow homeowners to comfortably remodel their home for their growing families. Software such as HOMEZADA  allow for digitally organizing your families valuables.

Possessions

Entering the value of these items will help you determine if you are properly insured and keep you prepared in case of fire or other disaster with your homeowner policy.

Fixed Assets

Your home is a financial asset so it is a good idea to take and upload photos of the various fixed assets such as:
equipment (furnace, hot water heater, etc.)
building materials (flooring, fixtures, windows, etc.)
major appliances (refrigerator, stove, etc.)
landscaping (patios, decks, trees, )

AS a nation, the United States is often portrayed as restless and rootless. Census data, though, indicate that Americans are settling down. Only 11.9% of Americans changed residences between 2007 and 2008, the smallest share since the government began tracking this trend in the late 1940s.

Remember to keep an eye out for the right home renovation features that will bring your family the best living environment updates and the highest value to your home.
