Most seniors would prefer to remain in their current homes as they age. According to AARP, 75 percent of adults 50 or older want to age in place. But although it’s an appealing choice, it comes with certain financial considerations that may not be immediately apparent.
But what are these considerations? From health issues to the type of home you live in, a plan needs to be set that accommodates your lifestyle and your finances.
