Housing for the elderly
Rougier, Isabelle
Housing for the elderly - 2016.
8
Since World War Two, successive housing policies have reached one goal by permitting pensioners to build up a real estate portfolio that places them in a better position than the younger generations. Today’s persistent concern is the adaptation of these assets to the aging of its occupiers. Adapting one’s own housing accommodation is seen as a means of preventing dependency and reducing its cost. The Act on the adaptation of society to aging voted at the end of 2015 firmly establishes this approach. The mobilization by seniors of their real estate to respond to their needs appears to be a promising lead, which should be encouraged, even though it has limitations in some fields.
