3. Benefits offered by retirement village
Many potential retirees wonder what sets retirement villages apart from other neighbourhoods and why they are typically preferred to buying a home on the open market.
Less expensive
Typically, retirement village purchases are less expensive than comparable private sales on the local house market.
According to property reports, the median house price in a retirement village is a lot lower than the typical house price in the same area. Depending on the retirement village’s management, potential residents can expect their home’s purchase price to be around 80% of a comparable property on the local housing market.
Participating in and contributing to the neighbourhood
When people move into our villages, they often experience a strong feeling of village since they are surrounded by others who are at a similar life stage and have similar values.
There are plenty of opportunities to meet new people in the village thanks to the many events and gatherings that take place here.
Vacation style facilities
Retirees tell us all the time that life in the village is like living at a “holiday resort” all the time. Swimming pools, fitness centres, gardens fit for a book read, movie theatre and gymnasium, and walking trails are all available to the residents at the retirement village.
Live free from the burden of house maintenance
It might be a huge relief to know that your village service provider will keep up with routine maintenance while you’re gone. Many of our residents appreciate not having to worry about a mountain of chores waiting for them such as lawn mowing, gutter cleaning or swimming pool maintenance.
