Re: retired vet. with no family in assisted living
People in assisted living facilities are usually determined as capable of returning to their homes. They are not in 'custodial care.' You would have to see the VA's determination of benefits to know exactly how your neighbor's home has been factored in. Perhaps he's not ready to sell it to anyone and he wants to keep his options open.
