The exemption may be granted despite the fact that the owner lives in a nursing home rather than his or her own home, as long as no one other than a co-owner or a spouse of the owner resides on the premises. The income of the owner in the nursing home must be considered in determining whether the income eligibility requirement is satisfied.
