Exploring the choice to partially buy and partially rent your retirement residence offers an affordable pathway to relishing the perks of our retirement apartments without fully committing to the purchase price. This approach grants financial flexibility, catering to varying preferences and needs.
This affordable avenue to owning a striking retirement home includes multiple benefits:
Rent is determined at the point of purchase, with an annual rent review pegged to the Retail Price Index (RPI) fluctuations. This review, scheduled in your lease, is subject to RPI movements, ensuring a minimum increase of 0.5%. Given RPI ranges between approximately 1-4% since 2013, registering at 3.3% in March 2018, this equates to a nominal weekly rise of £1.98 for an average £60 per week rent.
