AAG, VGM partner to better equip homes for aging 

Jim GreatorexIRVINE, Calif. – The American Advisors Group (AAG) has partnered with VGM Live At Home to broaden access to home equity to fund home modification projects. More than 80% of seniors wish to live in their home for the rest of their lives, according to a recent study by AAG. “This partnership is a perfect combination of two category leaders focused on the same mission of helping seniors,” said Jesse Allen, executive vice president of alternative distribution for AAG. “Our data shows that the pandemic caused an increase number of American seniors to want to age in the comfort of their home, but only 3% of older Americans have homes that are safe enough to do so. This partnership offers an exciting opportunity to impact in a meaningful way the lives of customers, families and communities.” Per the agreement, VGM Live At Home members will now be able to connect their senior customers directly with AAG loan officers in their local areas. These loan officers will work in-person with each individual client and their families to discuss the financing options they have available to fund home modifications, such as installation of shower rails, stair lifts or wheelchair ramps. AAG will also provide VGM Live At Home members with educational material about home equity use and will take part in industry related events like the VGM Heartland Conference. “We have seen first-hand how AAG has impacted the senior community with the financial solutions they have for older Americans and now our associated businesses will have the opportunity to leverage their services to help seniors across the nation,” said Jim Greatorex, vice president of VGM Live at Home.
