[@selfevidentinc.5266]

i booked a one on one with him 2/3yrs ago and he was compassionate and excellant well worth the fee he charged

[@serg_lupescu]

Thank you for that! That does mean a lot. I’m glad I could help.

[@getstryker]

This information is quite helpful in my planning . . . I do appreciate all the help you provide! 😀

[@serg_lupescu]

Happy to hear this information is helping and as always, I appreciate the support!

[@oliviah.6426]

These videos are awesome!! You mentioned Florida has laws against 10 beds...what is the max number in Florida and where can I find some more info on the specifics for Florida?

[@serg_lupescu]

Thanks for the support! It’s greatly appreciated. Anything beyond 10-beds would require a commercial kitchen, and would require a special variance. AHCA is the licensing department for Florida. That’s where I would start.

Hi Serg! How is one caregiver enough for a 5 bd when you consider breaks, lunch, and 24 hr care needed? Im confused by these factors with only hiring 1 caregiver.

[@fayyisrael7699]

How did you get approved for 5 beds with a 4 bedroom… does the master bedroom permit 3 beds?

[@jeremiahrosa3540]

Great viewpoints, thank you! For 10 bed facilities do you always strive for 10 bedrooms or are shared bedrooms ok?

[@serg_lupescu]

You’re welcome! Thank you for the support. It really depends, I do like to have more bedrooms than bathrooms. But having 1 or 2 shared is something I still try to get.

[@danieldiaz9948]

@@serg_lupescujust to clarify you’re saying you have 8 bedrooms and have two that are semi private?

[@Perumanian]

For five or six people facility how many hours did you work as a manager ? 40 hours ?

[@agwantamaria]

I am in Arizona and I have a 5BR 3Bath that I am planning to turn into a RAL. How many residents do you think can be placed in a 2060 Sq ft home in Arizona? Thanks

[@serg_lupescu]

That’s a loaded question and a lot of factors to consider (room sizes, is it sprinklered, etc) but comfortably you could probably do 6-8 Resident’s. If you want further consulting on this, you can book a call with me here: calendly.com/legionassistedliving/30 Or book a day with me here: calendly.com/legionassistedliving/in-person

Hello I have a 4bd, 3.5bth, 3600 sqft. I live in MS. What's an estimate on the # of residents I can have?

[@dadou0387]

Hi! Does the ALF require a staff 24 hrs?

[@serg_lupescu]

Yes it does requires 24/7 care.

[@francis_rr]

Great Video Sir , thank you so much , can you please provide where I can start looking for information on the State of Texas ?

[@brendarios2552]

So can we not start off with a 10 bed or more in California?

[@serg_lupescu]

You definitely can, but it would be considered a commercial property, therefore you will need to follow commercial regulations.

[@brendarios2552]

Okay, thank you. What is the difference in starting that instead of a 6 bed? I know now zoning is a factor. Any difference with fire inspection or licensing? Retainers?

[@pitchman1974]

Hi Serg! Great info as usual. Im trying to get started in KY and can't seem to find the right people to speak to. We've been cleared zoning wise for a "family care home" but the inspector general here says "residential assisted living " doesn't exist. Were being pushed towards being a lower level "business wise" Family home provider... basically adult fostercare for people with physical/intellectual disabilities. Essentially a sub contractor under an SCL waiver provider. What am i missing? Appreciate your advice 😊

[@birdskingdom9915]

thanks sir

[@serg_lupescu]

You’re welcome!

[@blkimble]

Do you provide meals?

[@serg_lupescu]

Yes

[@VickyWangrealtor]

out of the City of Phoenix, what cities are allow 6-10 beds?

[@serg_lupescu]

The state of Arizona, most of the cities allow for 6-10 beds. There are some that will not allow for it but we can discuss more when you book a 1-on-1 mentorship call. Book call here: calendly.com/legionassistedliving/30

[@IcacolisUSA-w5s]

when you say 10 beds is that like purchasing a 5 bedroom home and putting 2 clients to a room?

[@serg_lupescu]

That’s correct, ideally you would want 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.

[@IcacolisUSA-w5s]

@@serg_lupescu 6 bedroom for 12 bed correct. How would you charge per bed for shared beds? what if the clients in the area prefer private beds how would you charge them? because I saw a video explaining how a facility purchased an 8 bedroom for a total of 16 beds but couldn't sell it for shared rooms so they had to make them private.

[@meganboys7793]

​@serg_lupescu is there a minimum sq for 2 beds in 1 room? Thanks!

[@maryczintos6288]

It seems like you aren’t answering most of the questions. Hmmmm One on one?

[@abodulsalam3340]

How much money do you need to start 10 bed facility

[@reginacameron3011]

it all depends you have to do research of the area what other places are charging. I would recommend you not start out with 10 beds. Because you have to fill those beds or you will lose money. I am starting out with 6 beds b/c I am new to this.

[@serg_lupescu]

That’s a great question! But yes, it really does depend and can vary a lot. Feel free to book a call here to discuss it more further: calendly.com/legionassistedliving/30

Not worth it, and not profitable.

Why can’t Florida get ten beds ?

[@serg_lupescu]

Because if you go above 6 beds, you'll be required to have a commercial kitchen and abide by commercial zoning rules and regs.

[@Jako1300]

Did I misunderstand you and did you say that in Florida you can't get a 10 bed?

[@serg_lupescu]

In most cases you cannot. The most you’ll be able to do in a residential setting is 6-beds. You’ll have to have a commercial property to be able to do a 10-bed.

[@ericanowlen791]

Hello did you have to get your administrator license?

[@RealEstateDealsOnly]

Few questions: 🔥🔥🙋‍♂🙋‍♂ 1) How do you find the tenants? what do you call? agencies, the city, or treatment centers? 2) Do you do full service or just housing? i want to just be providing housing, so i dont need licensing, right? 3) And because they're a protected class, local zoning shouldn't be an issue. right? Because "Fair Housing Act (FHA): Protects individuals in recovery from discrimination and may require local governments to provide reasonable accommodations in zoning laws. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA): Ensures access to housing for individuals with disabilities, including those recovering from substance abuse."

[@za7601]

Where are people finding 10 bedroom homes? Because from my experience, people don’t want roommates so getting new residents becomes a challenge.

[@serg_lupescu]

A lot of the times if you’re not buying an existing facility, you’re going to have to convert a single family home with the right square footage and layout to get it to 10 bedrooms.

[@quangvu4361]

10 beds not necessary 10 bedroom

Are there states you would avoid for this business? I’m in WA state.
