Nope first has was a Vaca for us and both of our parents to winter. Both sets of parents wanted to winter at the same time, so need for house #2. Third house, because spouse semi retired and didn’t want to share with parents.
3 of the 4 parents passed, sold 1,2,3, the surviving parent will be in need of full time care, so built 4th house to accommodate.
As I said life changes, not every one would buy homes to accommodate parents to winter without using their income. And definitely many would not change their lifestyle to take on a failing health of a parent.
As far as bonds never paid any off, including the current house. But FYI one does pay capital gains on non homestead, so you could count that as running a business, Or caring children who just wanted to make life easier for those who raised them, so kind of business of the heart
