Realtors for Persons with Disabilities

touching_by_ziztur I really was trying to think of a better title for this article. I believe the first question that would come to someone ’s mind is what does that even mean? A realtor for the disabled?

Let me explain, I live with someone with Muscular Dystrophy. He is in a motorized wheelchair and is very independent, goes to work all day and has pretty much the same daily routine as many of us.Although his typical day has a few things that someone without special needs ever thinks about. He has a nurse to help with daily baths, administering breathing treatments, and uses a ventilator when sleeping. He is driven around in a handicapped accessible van and has a trach to help keep his lungs cleared out.

Having lived and cared for him for many years it came to my attention that it could be a help for people with special needs to have a realtor who understands those needs. Whether you need a name of a nursing company, supply and equipment company, help with who to call for transportation issues and more. 

Perhaps the biggest help is just a comfort level of dealing with someone who is accustomed to the challenges that come with a  disability. I will be working on adding names of companies that we have personally dealt with and making a more comprehensive site for answering questions you may have. I hope this will be beneficial to people moving from other areas or anyone whose life we can make a bit easier.
