I am under 55 (a TV wannabee at this point), single, no human kids (I have a fur kid). When I have gone to open houses in TV I have asked both TV sales reps. and MLS real estate agents if I could buy as I'm under 55, single, no kids. I have been told -- no problem, just have extra paperwork to sign acknowledging the rules about no permanent residents under the age of 19.

Last year when I went to an open house in TV, a TV sales rep. told me about a couple over 55 in TV who gained custody of their grandchildren after their child and their child's spouse were killed in a car accident. This couple had to either sell their home in TV, or only occupy their TV home for one month out of the year to be able to abide by the 30 day rule for visitors under the age of 19. The agent didn't know what they decided to do.
