Hi All,
I'm in need of a little advice. My parents have hit the point in their life where they need to move into an assisted living facility. I've been doing virtually everything for them with little to no help from my two brothers thus far (i also hired a retired CNA to help me- she's golden). The place we've chose is in their hometown, ten minutes from their house.
I will be selling their house once the dust settles. My question centers on what to do with the proceeds on that house? Put it in the bank? They have other cash to live on, and between pension and SS, they take in about $5K/month. This will pay the lions share of their monthly charge at the facility. I'll have to kick in probably $500 to $800 extra a month to cover everything. That money comes from an account holding approx $225K. Their house is in a very desirable area in Connecticut and should fetch north of $500K, I think. I will need an appraisal to understand where we are there though.
TIA for any advice
