Life after retirement
Life after retirement

Have you ever given much thought about how and where you would like to live when you’re older? Would you be willing to consider moving house?

By actively weighing the options, you can avoid rushed decisions and plan for future needs in good time. Then you can look to the future with confidence.

If any construction work needs to be done, you should contact a specialist to find the best solution for you.

Here are some ideas to set you thinking about life after retirement:

Converting an existing property

  • Install mobility aids on steep staircases

  • Review room usage

  • Install a transport lift in multi-floor properties

  • Rearrange work-intensive gardens

  • Install mobility aids/transport lifts in multi-floor properties and on steep staircases

  • Install wheelchair-compatible doorframes

  • Install a slip-proof bathtub with handrails

Buying a new property

  • Location: proximity to leisure activities/shops, social setting, relatives, etc.

  • Property type: apartment (single floor) or house?

  • Property size: how much space do you need?

Selling/bequeathing a home

    (Alternatives: renting, protected accommodation, seniors’ residence, etc.)
