Accessibility Is Home podcast: Disability-Informed Real Estate Conversations.
Accessibility Is Home is the podcast about accessible homes, inclusive home design, and private-market real estate for people with disabilities —focusing on the reality that most everyday homes in the United States are not required to be accessible.
Hosted by Angela Fox, blogger and author of My Blue Front Door, the show explores how people with physical, sensory, cognitive, chronic, and senior with disabilities navigate the real estate market to buy, modify, and live in homes that truly meet their needs.
Through conversations with realtors, builders, contractors, developers, advocates, and disabled homeowners, Angela examines real-world barriers in the private housing market and highlights practical solutions such as home modifications, inclusive home features, disability-informed real estate practices, and pathways to accessible homeownership.
Whether you are a disabled homebuyer, family member, real estate professional, or builder, this podcast delivers clear insight into creating and finding accessible homes beyond subsidized programs—where accessibility is part of the home itself, not an exception. Because everyone deserves a home that works.

October is Disability Employment Celebration month. Even when a disable worker finds a good paying job, it doesn't solve all of the economic challenges a disable person faces .
The fact is finances for the Disability community is just different but but you don’t have to take my word for it, read Cents and Sensibility by the Pennsylvania Assistive Technology Foundation (PATF). Cents and Sensibility is a wonderful 84-page resource book that provides financial guidance for the disability community; including about saving for a home and what you might need to save in order to live independently.
In this epsidoe I will give highlights of the Cents and Sensabilty manual. I will also give tips of my own as a disable worker and disable homeowner on saving and planning to be a disable homeowner or to save for modifications for your home you already own.
All podcast transcripts are turned into blog posts; where you can also find my free handouts and weblinks discussed.
