AS THE POPULATION AGES, BARRIER-FREE LIVING AND ACCESSIBLE COMMUNITIES ARE BECOMING KEY DRIVERS OF VALUE IN REAL ESTATE
Simple tools to better serve the growing market for Aging in Place and People with Disabilities:
Is the housing near the center of the city or a town
center?
This does not mean the only option is a skyscraper or
gritty townhouse.
It simply means keeping an open mind for a condo as a
sale option or an apartment as a leasing option – to serve a client who can
benefit from having a full range of services within walking/rolling distance.
For half a century, most growth in America was based on
separating uses far from each other.
For the past several decades, the trend has been toward
mixed-use communities, where jobs, schools, parks, medical offices and shops
are clustered in a vibrant community.
Many of Florida’s suburban, new growth cities are
actively soliciting major redevelopment that creates a mini-downtown – with
pedestrian activity, density and a mixed of uses – where there was none.
