Everybody likes perks, so your assisted living facility should have them too. Provide cable and a big HDTV in the common room. By adding extras to your assisted living facility, you will set it apart from others in the area.

Perks and activities like the ones listed below are popular in assisted living facilities these days. In fact most living rooms or common roms in assisted living facilities have HDTVs, and many have the Wii Fitness.

  • High Speed Internet

  • In-room Telephones

  • Wii Game Systems

  • “Park-like” Tranquil Backyards & Patios

  • Activity Room

 

The Wii Sports Bowling Game is so popular these days, assisted living facility video bowling leagues have formed. Check the news stories in the sidebar for full details.

As you’re learned, nice landscaping and perks pay off big, and they pay off fast. If your house is empty, but move-in ready, consider going to the local “Rent-to-Own” shop to furnish it.

 

Its hard to rent an empty (meaning unfurnished and unequipped) assisted living facility. Now is the time to get those high end appliances we talked about earlier.

You can rent the living room set, HDTV, Wii™, dining room set, and other items until you have collected your residents first and last months rent if allowed by your state.

You’d then have up to $40,000 to buy what you need to get you started. Now you can either pay off the rental stuff, or use the money to open another assisted living facility.

Different states have different laws about the types of structures that can be used as ALFs, but avoid mobile homes.

Some states allow mobile homes to be used as ALFs, others don’t. I live in Florida and have seen quite a few blow around, so I don’t recommend using them.

Some states allow condos and multi-family properties to be used as assisted living facilities. Many condo association do not allow ALF or even child day care activities.

Check with the condo association or similar organization if you are thinking about converting a condo into an ALF.
