Change can be difficult, particularly when you don’t have all of the information to make an informed choice. This is especially true when deciding how best to fund a senior living arrangement. “Is staying at home more affordable than moving into a community?” and “What funding options are available to me and do I qualify for them?"
This is why we put together our Financial Planning for Retirement Living guide. It contains everything you need to know to make the best financial decision including:
- Understanding overall costs and how to create a budget.
- Reverse mortgage: how this home equity loan works and what funding issues you can expect it to solve.
- Do you or your loved one qualify for Veterans Benefits? We list the criteria needed.
- How to use Long-Term Care Insurance to cover services typically not compensated by Medicare or Medicaid health insurance.
- Compare the cost of living at home versus moving to a senior living community with our Cost Comparison Worksheet.
