Chapter X with Michael Kay

Planning a Home for Aging in Place with Greg Cantori


Listen Later

Only 5% of homes in the U.S. are moderately accessible. Stairways, sunken living rooms, poorly designed bathrooms, and trip hazards are just the start.

Greg Cantore's journey has spanned bicycle mechanics to defense work and leading nonprofit programs. But his mother-in-law's experience living in a house that wasn't designed for her needs opened his eyes to the bigger issue.

After modifying her home, and later adjusting to her needs in assisted living, Greg realized there was a larger need for accessible, supportive home solutions. Today, he runs Little Deeds, a company dedicated to making homes safer and more accessible for aging individuals.

Your home should support you as you age. Find out how Greg is helping make that a reality for so many.
