Rethinking retirement A host of options for senior accommodation is now open to people over 50 QUADRANT GARDENS

T

he proportion of South Africans aged 50+ is projected to grow to over 15% by 2050. With people generally living longer, local property experts find the demand for senior housing rapidly increasing as well as drastically changing in type and style.

“Retirement now is a very different concept from what it used to be,” says Berry Everitt, CEO, Chas Everitt International property group. “It’s common to find people still working or even starting new business ventures in their 60s. Consequently, many are not ready to move to what we traditionally think of as old age homes or care centres until they are over 75.”

Dr Andrew Golding, chief executive, Pam Golding Properties, agrees. “While people may be retiring or semi-retiring, they certainly don’t want to retire from life. They want to be able to use this new phase as an opportunity to travel, be social, and engage passions they had to put aside while pursuing their careers and bringing up their children.”

The demand now is for retirementtype housing that meets these new lifestyle needs in one way or another.

Not everyone can afford to buy into an estate or a retirement village. Everitt says there’s a growing number of seniors organising themselves into “communes” where they share a large house with other seniors, and organise help with meals, laundry and transport.

“We’ve also seen a rise in demand for freehold properties that have ‘granny flats’ or garden cottages and can comfortably accommodate more than one generation of a family,” says Everitt.

Many families find it convenient and more secure to share one property, as well as the running costs and child-care responsibilities, between working parents and grandparents.

At the very top end of the market, realtors find many seniors selling their luxury homes to relocate to luxury apartments in buildings offering the amenities of a five-star hotel. “Major trends also include the integration of a senior housing component into many of the new

lifestyle estates,” says Everitt. These homes appeal to seniors who are ready to scale down but still want access to estate facilities like golf courses, clubhouses and wellness centres.

In the middle upwards income bracket most clients seem to prefer purposebuilt retirement villages. Says Nadia Aucamp, broker and manager, RE/MAX All Stars Gauteng, “People want to feel safe to walk the streets within the complex and have on-site health-care facilities, peer group interaction, and catering facilities.”

Coastal BLOK’s groundbreaking independent living concept EIGHTONN in Sea Point is an excellent choice for those wanting to retire to the Atlantic Seaboard without giving up the lifestyle to which they’ve become accustomed.

Stylish and functional Homeowners have been choosing the elegance of shutters over other window or door coverings for some time, but in recent years, technology has added a new, welcome aspect… shutters as powerful security WORDS: ANNE SCHAUFFER

S

hutters have been around for some time, and they’ve been getting more and more aesthetically pleasing. No longer simply functional, they’re fabulous. Today, there are superb ranges, in different colours and materials, customised and, most importantly, effectively secure.

IMAGE: SUPPLIED

“When designing our security shutters, we prioritised not only the safety features but the aesthetic ones as well,” says Karina Palmer, interior designer and marketing director, AMERICAN shutters. These have the same appearance of traditional timber shutters… and the same practical safety features of traditional security barriers.

Today, you can get them in three standard finishes – satin white, grey and charcoal, as well as custom colours.

According to Anthony Mederer, MD, Taylor Blinds and Shutters, “Our ShutterGuard Security shutters are made from super sturdy aluminium and can be fitted to almost any window and door. The range is available in five standard colours – white, light grey, stone, bronze and anthracite – all of which have a matt finish. However, clients can request custom colours (at a surcharge). We’ve also introduced the option of a new textured paint finish called grain white.” According to him, their shutters have undergone stringent security tests and have a

specialised patented locking system that locks the shutters with a unique security key, as well as bolting the shutter in both the top and bottom tracks when it’s locked. Additional security is provided by the louvre lock pin that secures the louvre panel closed.

Dave Meek, Earlswood Shutters, says his security shutters are similar in appearance to his PVC, wooden or aluminium ones, except they’re lockable (locks can be ordered in different key systems, master key, keyed alike, and so on). “The louvres in security shutters are reinforced, so it’s difficult to remove them as opposed to those in ordinary shutters.”

Ordinary vs security shutters “AMERICAN shutters’ Security Shutters are easy to operate without a tilt rod, thanks to their ‘gear tilt’ system hidden in the shutter framework,” says Palmer.

“The louvres operate smoothly with a tight fit against the shutter framework and the interleaved shutter panels provide greater privacy, security and light block. The locked bolt system secures the shutter panels in place simultaneously at the top and bottom of the shutter panels, and the tamper-proof bottom and top tracks ensure that the shutters can’t be lifted out of place.”

Both Taylor shutters and AMERICAN shutters can be installed internally or externally, and provide security, privacy, light and ventilation control.

“Earlswood’s Security Shutters are constructed from powder coated extruded aluminium profiles with stainless-steel hardware,” says Meek. “When correctly installed, security shutters form an almost impenetrable barrier from unwanted intruders. Compared to typical burglar guards, security shutters are significantly more secure.”

Other plusses

Security shutters are inevitably custommade. “In that way, they form part of the building and remain with the property when it’s time to sell – very appealing to any prospective buyer,” Meek says.

“They’re also made of durable material and components which make them easy to clean – they’ll outlast any other window dressing. Louvres can be opened, closed or adjusted to control the amount of light, ventilation, visibility or privacy not easily achieved with any other window dressing. Shutters also prevent direct sunlight from damaging carpets, floors, and furnishings.”

He adds, “During the day shutters can be opened up and stacked back to allow unobstructed views and easy access for entertaining. At night – or when you want peace of mind – shutters can be closed and locked, while the windows and doors remain open to allow cool air to move through the building.”

Smart solutions for every home Reliable systems for lighting, shade and temperature control

Smart homes and home insurance Automated homes, or ‘smart homes’, will generate data about your behaviour and security level, which could mean that your insurer will offer you more accurate home contents or buildings insurance premiums based on your levels of risk WORDS AND IMAGES: SUPPLIED

S

mart home adoption is on the rise, and technology now makes it possible for homeowners to adjust their music, ambient lighting or home security settings on their cellphones. This is only the beginning.

According to the report Smart Home Market – Global Forecast to 2024, the smart home market is estimated to grow from $76,6bn in 2018 to $151,4bn by 2024.

The benefits include energy efficiency, systems user functionality, and – of particular interest for South Africans – home security. These can all be controlled from a phone or other mobile devices, allowing remote users to activate alarms, set zones or even check out movement within their property. Risks like water leaks and fire could also be detected by a smart home before they become a problem.

This will have implications for insurance as well. According to Vera Nagtegaal, executive head, Hippo.co.za, there’s a strong likelihood that insurers will start to offer solutions similar to telematics for cars that offer discounted premiums based on responsible behaviour. “In future, interactive apps might allow you to update your policy details in real time, by, for example, adding a new security feature that will alert you to risky behaviour, such as leaving your window open at night, and this could affect your premium,” she says.

In addition, if smart homes were to evolve in such a way that could prevent risks before they occur, like alerting a homeowner to a water leak before it becomes a problem, insurance claims

will decrease as a result and impact the insurance industry significantly.

“Insurance providers will have to look at new opportunities that are presented by smart home technology,” Nagtegaal explains. “Instead of just focussing on customers’ risks and offering reactive solutions, such as compensation for damage incurred after a pipe burst, insurance value propositions will have to shift. Products should be adapted to provide solutions in real time that are pre-emptive to prevent risks from occurring in the first place.”

One example is the Homies alarm platform by Dutch insurance company Achmea and Accenture, which connects home security systems with neighbours, friends and families to assist each other in case of a fire or burglary. Of course, full smart home adoption is only in its early stages

in South Africa, so innovations like these are a long way off, but insurers are already considering the implications of the availability of this kind of data in future.

“It’ll ultimately be better for homeowners, who’ll benefit from the positive ways in which they modify their behaviour in terms of their safety.

In addition, insurers would be able to run more efficient risk models and offer more accurate and even affordable solutions to those individuals who use technology to improve their home security,” says Nagtegaal.

All in all, the smart home revolution is likely to create significant benefits for homeowners. But, as with every new advance in technology, there’ll be adoption hurdles to overcome before full and efficient functionality – and home security – is achieved.

Whether you are looking to reduce energy costs, increase comfort or manage lighting & blind control solutions, Lutron products offer the flexibility you need with the energy savings you want.

Johannesburg’s housing market rising in the East

A

ccording to Nelson Ferreira, Pam Golding Properties area principal, Johannesburg East, “Reflecting inflation of 3,1% (January to December 2018), the East Rand metro housing market is consistently outperforming the Tshwane and Joburg markets (2,6% and 2,2% respective house price growth).

demographic as it caters to a growing base of aspirant, first-time homebuyers.

Underpinned by all classes of people from a broad range of backgrounds and cultures, this broad-spread, cosmopolitan area is in demand because it provides value for money across all price bands and categories.”

Adding to the appeal, Johannesburg East is home to some of the best private schools in the country such as St Andrew’s, St Benedict’s, King David’s, Saheti, St Dominic’s and some of the best Curro and government schools.

Incorporating the areas of Kempton Park, Bedfordview, Benoni, Boksburg, Brakpan, Linksfield, Edenvale and Greenstone, to name a few, Johannesburg East enjoys a younger

Says Ferreira, “You can acquire homes starting from only R650,000 for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom house, while three-bedroom, twobathroom homes with a double garage can be had for as little as R1,4m.”

“Catering to the growing demand for homes, large tracts of open land between Benoni, Boksburg, Kempton Park, Edenvale and Greenstone

have been developed with clusters, townhouses and shopping centres.

We see tremendous room for property growth in the sectional title market over the next five years, like The Links apartments in Ebotse Golf and Country Estate and The Neighbourhood, a new residential lifestyle development, is in the historic Linksfield suburb, adjacent to the Huddle Park Golf Course,” he says.

Apart from these two, other, existing luxury developments in the region include Serengeti Golf and Country Club Estate in Kempton Park, Thornhill Hill Estate in Modderfontein and La Como Lifestyle Estate in Boksburg.

“There continues to be much development activity along the Gauteng East corridor,” Ferreira concludes.

Contractor’s guarantee a must-have

“E

mbarking on building renovations or building a new home without a comprehensive contract, including stipulated construction guarantees, is very dangerous.”

That’s according to attorney PJ Veldhuizen of Gillan and Veldhuizen Inc., who have represented many clients involved in legal battles with building contractors who, despite having been paid, have failed to pay third-party subcontractors and subsequently gone insolvent. The unpaid third party subcontractors in turn refused to complete the assigned work, for obvious reasons.

The stereotypical tale of a builder mismanaging cash flow and leaving subcontractors and owners high and dry in the middle of a building project can easily be avoided with what is known as a contractor’s guarantee. This is usually provided by an insurance company, and will guarantee that the contractor will perform as undertaken in terms of the construction contract or principal building agreement (PBA).

“If you’re paying in advance for services, you need to have insurance, otherwise you’ll find yourself without a chair when the music stops,” warns Veldhuizen.

These guarantees can protect the owner

from many common and costly matters which may arise during a building project, such as the contractor failing to: • provide the materials or goods for which a payment has been made.

• achieve the performance specifications set out in the agreement.

• rectify a defect.

• pay subcontractors for work for which the payment was made.

On the other hand, an owner should also provide guarantees that he will pay when he is called upon to do so, as per the agreement. This is the quid pro quo which should be demanded by the contractor.

T

he first eco-estate on the West Coast has launched in the quaint village of Darling, about an hour’s drive from Cape Town.

cameras, providing peace of mind in a healthy environment. It will be fiber-ready, allowing high-speed connected living in every way.

Located on the outskirts of Darling, adjacent to the Darling Golf Course, it comprises 499 residential opportunities, with various housing options to suite different lifestyles and budgets, says Bridget Uys le Roux, agent, Seeff Darling.

Property owners will also have access to the rest of the 500ha estate, for mountain biking, horse riding and walking, as well as membership – which is included in the monthly levy – to the adjoining Darling Sports Club, which includes bowling, tennis, and access to the nine-hole golf course.

Erf sizes start at 875m2 and the next size up is 1,200m2. There are also large erven ranging from 5,000m2 to 1ha available. Property owners will have three years to build. The houses are available in various designs, from twoto luxury four-bedroomed homes, all in a Cape vernacular architectural style.

The estate will be fully secure with 24/7 access control and CCTV

The estate enjoys access to quality education like Darling College, a private primary school offering preprimary to Grade 7, which is just 550m from the estate.

A daily school bus also runs to Malmesbury, Melkbosstrand Private School and Curro Langebaan.

More good news for the residential property market

C

urrent economic and sociopolitical challenges aside, some “green shoots” of renewed activity have appeared in the residential property marketplace in certain regions, which is over and above ongoing, sustained activity experienced in various key hubs, says Dr Andrew Golding, chief executive, Pam Golding Property group.

Retha Schutte, regional executive, Pam Golding Properties, Pretoria and Centurion, concurs, saying that well-priced properties are experiencing increasing activity, while units in popular Menlyn Maine continue to be

snapped up by urban professionals and other aspirant homebuyers. In addition, sales in mixed-use developments in the Pretoria region have surprised on the upside over the past six months.

Notably, while the Western Cape remains the top-performing major region overall, KwaZulu-Natal is showing the most resilience in the upper price band.

Another area which continues to experience sustained activity is the rapidly expanding North Coast in KwaZulu-Natal, which with its close proximity to King Shaka International Airport and proliferation of secure lifestyle estates, major business node in uMhlanga, and abundance of good schools, continues to attract local buyers as well as large numbers of up-country homebuyers.

Sandra Gordon, senior research analyst, Pam Golding Properties, points out that Cape Town and Nelson Mandela Bay continue to outperform South Africa’s national average of 4,3% with house price growth of 7,5% and 5,3% respectively. “It’s also interesting to see that the rebound in house price growth in the Northern Cape continues to gain momentum, at 3,39% for the year to date (Jan–Nov 2018, Lightstone).”
