After years of hard work, you deserve a break. Your retirement is a time to relax, travel, and spend time with your family and friends. Really, the possibilities are endless. As you near this wonderful stage in your life, you will need to consider where you put down roots. There are many retirement options but buying a sectional title retirement home is definitely one to consider. Learn more about sectional title retirement homes, and why choosing Marmanet Retirement Village will help you live life to the fullest.
What is a sectional title retirement home?
With a rise in sectional title living, it's unsurprising many are turning to these property types in their later years. Sectional title retirement villages, like Marmanet Retirement Village, allow you to live independently while still having support close by when you need it.
In a sectional title retirement scheme, you have ownership of a unit or cottage in a retirement village - just like any other sectional title purchase. Your property registration is concluded through the Deeds Office and there are the usual costs and fees such as the transfer duty and conveyancing attorney fees.
You have full control to alter and decorate the inside of your sectional title unit as you please, provided it doesn't infringe on municipal by-laws or endanger the structure of the building. In your retirement village scheme, you acquire a section that can include a garden, garage, parking bay, external storeroom, etc. You may be granted exclusive use of these spaces.
In your retirement village scheme, you will have full use of the communal facilities provided. However, the body corporate tends to the day-to-day running of the complex and communal facilities, taking the stress away.
Benefits of sectional title retirement homes
Investing in a sectional title retirement home for your later years has many advantages. The schemes are designed to ensure you live securely, comfortably, and surrounded by like-minded individuals. Here are some of the benefits:
Security: Your sectional title retirement home keeps you in close distance to your neighbours should an issue arise. Moreover, you will often have fencing around the perimeter and security patrolling the scheme.
Facilities: To help you while away your days in contentment, sectional title retirement schemes often provide excellent facilities from clubhouses, pools, to medical centres. If you find your mobility waning, you can rest assured you won't have to travel far to reach the amenities that are important to you.
Community living: The closeness of homes in a sectional title retirement scheme makes it easier for neighbours to build close ties. Communal areas and facilities also help encourage interactions ensuring you'll never be far from people who care.
Budget-friendly: In a freehold property, you would have to pay for your own home insurance and the upkeep of the exterior areas. However, in your sectional title retirement scheme, your monthly levy would cover the costs of insurance premiums, maintaining the common area, and paying for staff involved in maintaining and protecting the scheme. This cost is shared with the other scheme members.
Growing asset: If your sectional title retirement scheme is properly managed and the surrounding area develops, you can see significant growth in your property's value. Before you're ready to retire, you can even rent out your property. Since the property is yours, you will be able to bequeath it to your loved ones, allowing them to have their own retirement home in the future.
