I am 36 and I have friends my age (educated, high earning people) with no kids and no elder parents around who haven't left their houses in 5 weeks, despite the fact that they're like .01% chance of dying from this thing. 

My non-RE side hustle is specialized private in home elder care.

Search property data for properties with high equity & perhaps out of area owners or elderly owners & contact them to introduce yourself as a local hoping to find another rental property.

I guess it depends on the market.In SOME parts of the Dallas area, the following is still possible SOMETIMES.1)  Pay $30,000 for a house.2)  Spend $3000 to fix it up.3)  Rent it for $950 a month to a single elderly person that is easy to get along with.4)  Property might be vacant for 2 or 3 days when the tenant leaves.Most out of state investors seem to be happy buying retail in our market. 

Bronchick was hired and trusted by my elderly mother and is now being sued by the CO Attorney General on behalf of the Colorado Division of Regulatory Securities for multiple instances of fraud.

Had you been a real estate agent, picking up some elderly or disable person is actually required under ADA, equal opportunity and access.

"Different Applicant (about 80 -90 years old)"I've had elderly applicants tell me about renting "big" houses for only $200 a month.Course that was in the "good old days" (like four decades past!).

I can't speak for other locations, but for everywhere I've looked within 150 miles of me, most of the properties I look at come from elderly family members passing away and leaving behind a house with a good bit of deferred maintenance.

@Matt MichaelsonOther residents are elderly and probably haven't looked at their attics.

Here is an example where I keep the rent a bit below market:  Elderly tenant on a fixed income, few complaints, will not move for a long time.
