Backstory
Now that Mom's only on her own pension, it doesn't cover where she lives. She loves it there and has friends. She could easily live another decade. Am searching for a house to fix and rent that will make up the difference in her expenses. She'll never see it, even though it will be hers.

We've had to rent my mothers house after she went into aged care for same reason. Now her pension and rent cover costs of her getting looked after.marymc says,
