I am DPOA for my mothers care. My father passed 1997. My brother moved in a few years later. He is on disability. As mothers health declined, he would take mother to Dr. appointments etc. This year however she has gotten worse and would decline in home care and have brother cancel appointments. I was not able to encourage her to do these things as well. She is now in NH because she needs 24/7 care. She has dementia, CHF, diabetic and other medical issues. My brother wishes to purchase home. I have gotten mixed answers from mothers attorney and NH SW. We are now in PP and will run out of money soon. My sister and I are fine with brother buying family home. It would give her a few more months of PP for her care. I am just wondering if this sale would keep her from getting Medicaid or, how long could it delay her application? Has anyone else gone through this situation?
The problem is this: If brother himself is on Medicaid, he is not going to get a mortgage from a bank to buy the home.
A good mortgage co will have names on both.
