Very interesting. I did not check this before they moved in, but Brooksby has all the qualitative signs of a well financed stable place, and I've had aunts and uncles living there for decades. If I had to do this again, I would check more carefully on their parent, as you suggest. (Separately, I would not say that a condo is risk-free wrt exposure on others' potential financial woes.)

Nevertheless, I would still recommend Brooksby unreservedly to any whose life-stage/financial situation fits
