An ageing population is causing a serious supply and
demand deficit in UK retirement housing. But investors need better access to
the sector. The proportion of over-65s is set to rise to 20.7 percent of the UK
population by 2027, up from 18.2 percent in 2017, according to the UK
government. At the same time, ARCO, the housing with care industry body, has
set a target of 250,000 over 65s living in housing with care facilities by
2030. Based on this growth target, over 11,000 housing with care units would
need to be built each year to meet demand up to 2026 – but over the last decade
an average of only 3,220 units a year have been built, according to data from
JLL. Read more on The Investor website.
