In recent years, the problem of population aging in China has become more and more serious. As a vulnerable group, caring for the elderly has become a very important task in modern society. Buying a house for the elderly is a good way to provide them with a good living environment and let them enjoy their old age. Buying a house for the elderly is also an investment and know-how. What do you know about buying a house for the elderly?
What are the tips for buying a house for the elderly
1. Medical institutions are the most critical
The physical function of the elderly is impaired, so health is the first thing. The most critical supporting facilities around the house are medical facilities. It will be more convenient to choose the real estate close to the public medical place and go to the hospital for medical treatment or physical examination.
2. Choose a house with good environment
Air pollution, noise pollution and other problems are unfavorable to the health of the elderly. Therefore, it is best to choose places with mountains and water in the suburbs of the city. In the urban area, you can choose projects close to parks and other greening facilities, which not only has fresh air and good environment, but also makes it more convenient for many elderly people to carry out morning exercises.
3. The community should be low-density and convenient to go upstairs and downstairs
The elderly are old and it is very inconvenient to go up and down the stairs, so it is best to choose either the project with elevator or the house type with lower floor, and the second floor of multi-storey buildings is appropriate to facilitate the access of the elderly. Avoid the ground floor. Although stairs can be avoided, the light and humidity are poor, and the noise is large, which is harmful to health. If possible, choose low-density houses such as garden houses.
4. The community must be able to provide basic elderly care services for the elderly
The elderly pay more attention to exercise, which requires that there are activity places near their residence, such as fitness venues and equipment in the community, parks, amusement parks or places suitable for activities nearby, which can also enrich the amateur life of the elderly and give them more time to exercise.
5. Many old people live together
The elderly, especially those whose children are not around, are afraid of loneliness. Before buying a house, you can investigate whether there are other elderly people living in the community. The pace of life should be appropriate. Sometimes life needs the care of the neighbors, and the elderly live in the same community, so their life is richer.
