Location & retirement …<br />
why it matters<br />
“Location. Location. Location.”<br />
It’s something we’re used to<br />
hearing when it comes to<br />
property, but when it comes to<br />
the retirement space, it’s even<br />
more vital than you might think.<br />
A prime location is more than just a desirable street address. It’s about the<br />
surroundings that keep you in harmony with nature, near to the facilities you<br />
need and, of course, bringing you closer to the ones you simply cannot live<br />
without. The team from Mount Edgecombe Retirement Village (MERV) share four<br />
reasons why you should prioritise location when you begin your search for that<br />
dream property.<br />
1<br />
Stay part of the family. Staying close to the ones you love is the key to<br />
remaining active in any family unit. You want to be close, but not too<br />
close, because there’s a fine line between closeness and dependency.<br />
Settle somewhere that allows you to visit those dearest to you and be<br />
visited in return. This ultimately makes for fantastic occasions and festive seasons<br />
spent with loved ones, which is exactly how it should be.<br />
2<br />
Close to everything you need. You’ve worked hard and now it’s time you<br />
get the amenities you need to enjoy life. However, make sure you’re not<br />
so focused on the facilities within a retirement village that you neglect to<br />
consider its proximity to things you might need beyond its gates. Choose<br />
a place that’s centrally located so you can access beaches, golf courses, airports,<br />
top medical care, entertainment and excellent eateries. When you’ve got an ideal<br />
balance of facilities both on and beyond your doorstep, you’ll get to enjoy the<br />
conveniences that truly make life a joy.<br />
3<br />
A solid investment. A sought-after location means a guaranteed<br />
investment that allows you to safeguard your future. By selecting a home<br />
in an already established gated estate or retirement village, you’re sure<br />
to see your investment grow in value as the years pass. This means you’ll<br />
never have to worry about struggling to sell your home or what you might get<br />
for it later on. Should this fall on your children one day, you’ll enjoy peace of mind<br />
that your property will provide for them too.<br />
4<br />
Nothing has to change.<br />
Who says things have to<br />
change when you retire? The<br />
best retirement is one that<br />
enables you to keep your friends,<br />
pets, hobbies and lifestyle and enjoy<br />
a safety net for your future. If you<br />
choose a central location, you’ll be<br />
able to maintain everything you’ve<br />
come to know and love, making<br />
happiness during those golden years<br />
a greater possibility.<br />
