Vero Beach, FL – What do potential
homebuyers want most in a retirement community? A variety of experiences
catering to their wide range of interests.
In
its recently released “2018 Survey of Homebuyers Researching Lifestyle
Communities,” Private Communities Registry (PCR) says that the
majority of 55+ year old homebuyers are seeking “healthy, active lifestyle” as
the greatest attraction in the marketplace.
More
than 3,200 respondents provided new data concerning the lifestyle and financial
aspects they consider when purchasing a retirement or second home.
The
top three most sought-after amenities are swimming pools (77%), fitness centers
(76%), and walking/biking trails (71%).
“Buyers
are looking for experiences that contribute to the richness of their lives and
to their continued wellness,” said Marie Roberts, President of Private
Communities Registry (PCR).
“Leisure
and recreation are important. However, the stereotypical retirement amenities
of bridge, shuffleboard, and lawn bowling have largely been replaced with more
active pursuits such as pickleball, yoga, walking, and biking trails.”
.
Roberts said. “Proximity to healthcare, shopping, dining, and recreation also
are important.”

in 1996, Private Communities Registry, Inc. (PCR) is the trusted online
