10 Cheap Changes That Keep You in Your Own Home After 60 Donna's Home Book, sixty ways to a smaller bill and a house that's easier after 60 (your support keeps my small channel going), and a free chapter: https://donnafixes.com Somewhere around sixty, the house you've lived in for decades starts asking more of your body than it used to, and somebody at Sunday dinner starts saying the word move.

You'll hear what each one costs, how to put it in, and the common slips to avoid, like a new latch put in backward or a grab bar screwed into drywall instead of studs. You'll also leave with a simple yearly walk-through using a pad of paper so you catch what's getting harder while it's still a small fix.
