Mom's lift chair

We're considering buying a home, but it has a chair lift on the stairs (that we don't want). How expensive or difficult are these to remove?

You could probably get someone to remove it for free if you were to give them the chair lift. Since they are usually added on to houses well after they are built, I'm sure they are not too hard to remove if you are a bit handy. Put up flyers in grocery stores or on craigslist offering the chairlift to whoever can remove it for you.

I do not know how to get off a chair lift correctly. What's the secret? Everytime I ride it, when it's time to get off, I just fall off. I'm using a snowboard by the way. Not skiis.

never drag your free foot. that will just spin you and knock you off balance. extend your arms like you are walking across a tight rope. keep your center of gravity low. do not worry about the chair clipping you in the back of the head because the lift operators are trained to watch out for you.

My wife couldn't climb the steps to the second floor of our home. I had a stair chair lift installed at a cost of $1600.00. Can I claim it as a deduction on my income tax?

Usually that kind of thing counts as a medical expense and is deductible on your Schedule A. Keep in mind that you must itemize to be able to use schedule A deductions.

Also keep in mind that there is a floor on your medical expenses--meaning that your total medical expenses (including doctor visits and prescriptions, surgery, etc.) must be at least 7.5% of your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI).

My son's just turned four and keeps asking wistfully when he can take the chair-lift with me. We live in a small city with a natural mountain gorge and running river in the centre, it's a real beautiful spot and we go there at least once a week. Unique landscape. It has a chair-lift like I suppose you see at ski places, where you sit in the little chair and it is carried across the river on a steel cable. People are on it all the time. There are no restraints or belts, just narrow little wooden seats and it is quite high, I guess maybe twenty or thirty metres above the ground at its highest. At what age would you consider taking your child across? Thanks for your opinion.

Funny thing, you are afraid and he's not. If he says he's ready then take him. You do need to go over the rules (repeatedly) with him and make him understand that if he doesn't like it there is no turning back. Also safety stuff he should know. If he can remember and repeat everything back to you and still seems confident go for it! Either he will be fine or he won't bother asking for quite a while.
