There are many profitable services to offer as a handyman, and one niche you may not have heard about is Aging-In-Place services.
Aging-In-Place services are home modifications and improvements that allow aging adults to live in their homes safely and for longer.
Examples include installing grab bars and rails, building ramps, improving lighting, and installing chair lifts.
Aging-In-Place services first came on my radar about eight months ago when one of my students mentioned it on a live webinar. Ever since, I’ve seen it pop up all over the place.
And that’s why I’m excited to bring you this interview with Pat Lund. As the executive director of Age Well At Home, he’s an expert in this field and happily shares how to capitalize on this growing business opportunity.
HS043 – How to build a profitable aging-in-place business – Interview with Pat Lund
Pat is the creator and executive director of Age Well At Home – a non-profit business in The Twin Cities, Minnesota, that provides home modification and improvements to help aging adults live in their homes for longer.
Pat has a ton of experience in the home service industry, which started when he got a job painting houses to help him get through high school. He later became director of several non-profit programs, including Paint-a-Thon, Meals on Wheels, and A Brush with Kindness. He worked locally and nationally with Habitat for Humanity to implement programs to assist lower-income families in maintaining their homes.
About six years ago, Habitat for Humanity wanted him to help create a program to help the aging population stay in their homes, eventually leading to his current venture.
Aside from his vast experience and connections, he’s just an overall nice guy who wants to connect with and help others in this industry.
