A new real housing option is Co-Living for Seniors as a financial and lifestyle solution, with many other benefits including no longer living lonely and isolated lives in single households, but rather sharing all housing and living costs.
Co-Living Australia specialises in designer shared homes for Seniors, offering a unique opportunity to co-own and share a luxury home as a real alternative to Retirement Village life. Investing in a Retirement Village only compounds the issue of affordability where you can lose up to 25% or moreĀ of your investment upon exit (consumer.vic.gov.au).
