Australia’s property market is transforming to tackle housing affordability and shortages. Land lease communities offer a viable solution, especially for the ageing population.
With a rapidly growing 50-plus age group, which is estimated to reach 10.2 million Australians by 2030, the demand for affordability, social connectivity and lifestyle benefits provided by these communities is rising.
So where do the opportunities for the property developers and investors lie?
The Urban Developer presents its Land Lease Communities vSummit, a one-day conference that explores the development context for this emerging sector.
