question about distance

hello. I am going to switch to Direct Tv Satellite however my mom lives behind me above the garage in an apartment. The garage is 70 ft from my house. If we get a satellite can it be placed in between so we both receive a good strong signal? This will determine whether or not we go with Direct tv.
