Feb 8, 2009
It will be one of the markets with greater growth potential in coming years.
For now, only there are some promotions throughout the Spanish territory, but will become an attractive market niche for a population that is aging and it occupies the 5th place in actual elderly in Europe.
The concept is not sufficiently exploited. The resort was born as a senior response to very specific needs of a group with prospects of starting a quiet life, to live in their own home with comfort, security, medical care in a family environment and an attractive range of leisure .
The senior resort, established in other countries like the United States, consisting of urban development consisting of residential houses, apartment type, or bungallows villas, built next to areas that are intended for entertainment or services.
In fact, the supply of these is one of the main signs of identity, as it provides a wide range of care services, an area of restaurants, sports areas, golf courses, security and surveillance 24 hours a day, swimming, shopping spa, shops, etc.. In short, all the elements needed to live within them.
Moreover, these complexes are located in privileged surroundings in warm climates or coastal areas with good communications by road, air or railways.
The system of exploitation of these homes usually sell, but there are other options available such as a high turnover of tenants for life or for sale, that is, he acquires the right to enjoy the apartment throughout life and after death the elderly, the center recovered well without the right to the heirs.
In Spain, this product has not yet reached maturity in other countries, it opens an interesting path to business developers.
