Which Schema type for retirement homes?
Hello, Are they selling the homes, or "renting" a room in the homes? In other words, is there are deed and a mortgage? Depending on the details, each retirement home's landing page could have both the local business / organization Schema, as well as something like this: https://schema.org/Accommodation I doubt you would use product schema.

Single domain or a subfolder?
Hi there! Keeping the main brand as the domain has a few advantages: Short domain names are easier to remember, easier to share, and have a smaller chance of resulting in typos. (ex. 20 characters vs. 9 characters) It's also just a good idea to have content from one brand in one place, and not spread out of many domains. Not exactly applicable post, but you get the general idea. There are ways to move domains/brands. But there is a chance of loosing authority, brand awareness and rankings. Here's a post on how to help with the transition if you find it necessary. I hope these resources help!

What's the best way to hold newly purchased domains over 2 years?
everywhere I've read says it is important My early SEO days weren't pretty. I read a lot of information which was far from credible. Much of the information made perfect sense in a "of course the world is flat! If it was round the people at the bottom would fall off" type of way. Much of my day used to be spent optimizing meta keywords, building links from blogs with follow links, and many other activities which are frankly crap but otherwise promoted from random sites as having value. Then I changed my focus from learning SEO from anyone who seemed like an expert and restricted my focus to truly credible sources. That change was the single best move I made. If I may make a suggestion, stop reading SEO information from "everywhere" as the overwhelming majority of it is crap. Focus on a few, reliable sources of information. Even then, always question and test new learnings. A few sites to start with are: SEOmoz, mattcutts.com/blog, matt's videos on youtube, and Google's official blog. It would take months or years to sift through the information on these sites alone. You will pick up links to other credible sources of information and be able to form your own opinions.

Very, very confusing behaviour with 301s. Help needed!
Two problems you are experiencing and there is a common thing happening here. your deleting/not implementing the "old" redirects. as you know when you redirect page A... as long as there is a website on that domain. you have to always have that redirect. there is no threshold where if you implement a 301 redirect to a page for after a year for example there is no need for it. This is a good video i posted in the references from matt cutts. you can concluded "in a way" a 301 redirect will never be deleted especially "when Goog start receiving mix signals about this domain" so the solution to your problem is you need to implement these old redirect you had before hope this helps watch?v=QyQs3tz7ZKo
