Your guide to all things Real Estate<br />
in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District<br />
Retirement<br />
living in <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> is in great demand for<br />
retirement living opportunities. As<br />
people age, they may be looking<br />
for greater security, peace of mind,<br />
companionship, social interactions,<br />
or downsizing and reducing<br />
maintenance. There are many<br />
reasons why living in a retirement<br />
village is so popular. Many people<br />
are now enjoying the benefits of<br />
a simpler and easier lifestyle in<br />
a lifestyle village or retirement<br />
village.<br />
The setups and fee structures<br />
within different types of retirement<br />
villages and lifestyle villages (for<br />
those over 55) vary. Some villages<br />
offer independent living only, while<br />
others also provide assisted care<br />
facilities. Each village has specific<br />
licence-to-occupy (Occupation<br />
Right Agreement) requirements.<br />
When deciding on your living<br />
options at retirement, it is best to<br />
consider your long-term needs,<br />
including if you wish to receive<br />
the capital gain on the sale. With<br />
a globally aging society and a<br />
significant increase in <strong>Selwyn</strong>’s<br />
population, there continues to be a<br />
need for retirement living solutions.<br />
Corrine Blackie from Woodcroft<br />
Estate in Rolleston says there<br />
has been more interest recently<br />
in retirement living. She thinks<br />
Covid-19 may have been a factor.<br />
She suggests, “People being isolated<br />
has a lot of people thinking about<br />
coming into a village.” As sales of<br />
the 2/3-bedroom duplexes and<br />
standalone villas have been so<br />
successful, she states, “we can’t<br />
build them fast enough” to meet the<br />
demand. She advised that it used<br />
to be just people from Rolleston<br />
moving into the retirement<br />
villages, but it now appears they are<br />
relocating from other parts of New<br />
Zealand to live in <strong>Selwyn</strong>. As with<br />
the real estate market, buyers from<br />
the North Island are getting better<br />
value with their sales proceeds<br />
to buy into a village retirement<br />
property in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> region.<br />
Other retirement villages within<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> also confirm an ongoing<br />
demand for retirement living, with<br />
the land purchased to construct<br />
more villas, apartments, hospitals<br />
and care facilities. For example,<br />
Karen from the Boulevard in<br />
Rolleston says they are seeing more<br />
demand for larger 2/3-bedroom<br />
villas with double garages. She<br />
states, “The demographics of elderly<br />
are not high in Rolleston compared<br />
to other areas, but people who<br />
might be moving closer to their<br />
family do increase it.” That desire<br />
for social connection has seen<br />
people returning to Christchurch<br />
and choosing the lifestyle and sense<br />
of community that a retirement<br />
village can provide.<br />
The fastest-growing region<br />
in New Zealand, <strong>Selwyn</strong> offers<br />
desirable locations and options for<br />
retirement living with appealing<br />
community facilities and new retail<br />
and hospitality venues nearby to<br />
meet your lifestyle needs.<br />
