How Should a Senior Citizen Look at Real estate Ownership differently from a Young Professional?

While buying real estate, every age group has its own set of things to look at before investing. Young professionals might focus on the project, proximity to the workplace, and many other factors. Senior citizens may have different priorities and considerations regarding real estate ownership compared to young professionals. 

Here are some ways that a senior citizen might look at real estate ownership differently:

Long-term planning: 

Senior citizens may be more interested in buying a property they can live in for the rest of their life or one they can pass down to their heirs. They may also be more concerned with the home’s accessibility and safety features, such as a gated community apartment, 24×7 security, power backup, and much more. 

Location:

Depending on their health and mobility, senior citizens may want to live close to medical facilities, grocery stores, and other essential services. They may also want to be near family members or friends who can provide support and assistance. It is also important that the apartment be situated in a good public transit location so that living there doesn’t become a pain. 

Lifestyle: 

Senior citizens may be looking for a property that allows them to enjoy their retirement years. It could mean looking for a home in a gated community with recreational amenities like a jogging track, yoga/meditation room, 60% open spaces, and much more for them to live in the comfort of peace and love. 

 Maintenance and upkeep: 

Seniors may need help to maintain their homes independently. Even though they can hire outside help, it still needs supervision and patience to maintain a house. As a result, they’d look for a project with a comparatively small floor plan to manage with low maintenance. 

Peaceful surroundings:

Older people prefer their peace in quiet surroundings. In such circumstances, they can choose a home beyond the city limits or an apartment in a gated community with increased privacy.

Overall, older people might approach real estate ownership with a more conservative and long-term perspective than young professionals. HPC’s Rukmini Pranava 101 is the best option for senior living in Hyderabad as it has a setting and location that are appropriate for the elderly.

Centenarians turn up for jab, dispel fears and myths

BENGALURU/HYDERABAD: Dispelling misconceptions and fears associated with the efficacy of Covid-19 vaccines, a 102-year-old retired Army officer, Subramanian KN, received the vaccine at Bengaluru while 100-year-old Hyderabad resident Jaidev Chowdhry got himself inoculated on Monday. Subramanian, who received the vaccine at Columbia Asia, Hebbal, around 5pm, is perhaps the oldest to be vaccinated in Bengaluru. Meanwhile, Chowdhry, a retired entrepreneur, was one of the first to visit Hyderabad’s Medicover Hospital for the vaccine and suffered no side effects. Chowdhry urged everyone above 60 and those aged between 45 and 59 with comorbidities to get inoculated as it is tougher for people of these ages to fight infections with their immune systems becoming weak. A 70-year-old Bengaluru resident, Naveen Kumar, whose lungs were compromised in a fire mishap four years ago, was the first to receive the jab at Jayanagar General Hospital at 1.20pm. Kumar, who carted a portable oxygen cylinder, said he and his wife had not stepped out of their home since the pandemic broke out. “We follow government instructions scrupulously,” Kumar said. His wife, Manjula, in her early 60s, also took the jab. Both had no side effects. Ramaswamy Parthasarathy (97) got the vaccine at Columbia Asia, Hebbal. “I have not been ill for the past 3-4 years, so getting the vaccine was important for me,” he said. His caretaker told TOI the nonagenarian was perfectly fine post-vaccination and had no side effects. Those in the 45-59 group suffering comorbidities had to carry a letter from a treating doctor confirming the comorbidity. Inder Neel Singh, 54, a Hebbal resident who works in a manufacturing firm, was the first to get the vaccine at Aster CMI hospital. He said registering on the Co-Win portal was a breeze and he completed the task in 15 minutes. “I carried my Aadhaar card and a medical certificate from my doctor on my diabetes condition. I’ve had no side effects so far and am fine,” said Singh. Chowdhry, who was wheeled in by his family members for the jab, said, “Due to the pandemic, senior citizens in Hyderabad had to remain indoors for a long time, which, in turn, impacted their mental and physical health. I was waiting for this day to be vaccinated so I could return to my old routine and lead an active social life. I also see this as the only way to end the pandemic.” Medicover Hospital MD Dr G Anil Krishna told TOI, “Chowdhry is an inspiration to all having doubts. By voluntarily coming forward, he sent a clear message that this is the only way to end the pandemic. If it is safe for a 100-year-old, it is safe for everyone.”

In India, these seniors are looking for love, living-in and risking ridicule

Kulkarni had an active social life but, after several years of being single, the 68-year-old divorcee felt she needed someone at home.

“As evening fell, I’d get worried about my health and being alone at home and my safety,” said the former insurance agent.

So, she joined Happy Seniors dating agency and began meeting Yardi, also 68, for nights out to the theater and cinema. Ten months later, they’re living together.

Kulkarni and Yardi’s romance might not seem odd in many countries, but in India late-life relationships are generally frowned upon by a society that places a high value on marriage and disapproves of cohabitation outside wedlock.

While there is no particular law regarding the status of live-in relationships in India, in 2015 India’s Supreme Court ruled that living together out of wedlock was an acceptable custom in Indian society.

But the social stigma remains and, in some cases, is perpetuated by adult children who fear their parents will be ostracized by their communities, and worry over complicating inheritance issues.

And while seniors dating agencies are making matches, some say it’s still difficult to sign people up, especially women — even when they’re offered financial incentives.

A partner for life

This generation of elderly Indians grew up in a time when marriage was for life. Many married young to partners chosen by their parents and were expected to fulfill the duties of a traditional wife and husband — she managed the family, he earned the money.

In traditional Indian society, older people have always occupied a position of reverence. They, in turn, are expected to lead a life that’s centered around spirituality and family — often helping to care for grandchildren, for example. Dating or finding a partner in later life, after a spouse has passed away, isn’t the cultural norm.

But times are changing. Adult children in urban India no longer automatically invite their parents to live with them, leaving many without a support network they may have expected when they were younger.

There is no shortage of older, single Indians. According to the 2011 Census data, almost 15 million elderly Indians live alone and three-quarters of them are women. There are signs that some are interested in recoupling.

In 2012, Madhav Damle, an-ex publisher in the Indian city of Pune, Maharashtra, conducted a survey of 400 senior citizens in that city about their attitudes towards finding a companion. More than 70% of respondents thought live-in relationships were an ideal solution for lonely senior citizens looking for companionship.

Saroj Ghatani, a 52-year-old widow from Pune, has been seeking a partner to live with for the past year. Her children don’t like the idea, but she’s prepared to go against their wishes.

“They feel at 50 I have lived my life and shouldn’t really think of finding a partner,” she said, adding that her children worry she may not be available to help raise her grandchildren if she finds a new partner.

“All my life I have worked to raise them and support them and the family. Now I want to think only about myself and live the life I want to,” she says.

Someone in the kitchen

Men and women typically want different things from live-in relationships, according to Natubhai Patel, 71. He started his non-profit dating service, Anubandh Foundation, after the 2001 earthquake in Gujarat. Around 25,000 people were killed in the quake and many survivors were left without a spouse.

Patel says while many older Indian women want companionship, many potential male partners are looking for someone to manage the kitchen.

Savita Desai, 69 is happy to do that. She makes lunch every day for her live-in companion Hiten Parekh, 70, to take when he goes to work in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Those aren’t their real names. The couple requested to use aliases to avoid any “social embarrassment.” They say they’re happy for their friends to assume they’re married.

Parekh has a wheat allergy and says, in the past eight years, Desai has taken care of him like his “own mother.”

Parekh and Desai initially faced opposition from his sons, who live in the same city. “Gradually, they realized I needed someone to take care of me and came around, as did hers,” he said.

Desai’s children live in the US and she said life with Parekh is comfortable and easy. “You need a support structure in your old age and I have it now. I don’t mind taking care of him in return,” she said.

Some women reluctant to sign up

Some women say their days of running a household are over and believe that India needs to move on from its traditional, patriarchal system.

Jayashri M has thought about looking for a partner through organizations in her home town Bangalore, in southern India, but the 62-year-old, who has never married, says the “expectations involved” stopped her from signing up.

“Companionship is much needed, but I’m afraid many older men were so used to being taken care of by their now deceased wives that they are looking for someone to run their house and take care of them in old age. That’s not my idea of having a companion. I don’t want additional responsibility,” said the former schoolteacher.

Patel and Damle agreed it’s harder to attract women to their dating services. They offer discounts and other incentives, but Patel said there are still far fewer women on his books than men.

“I have the details of 12,000 men over 55 across India from the get-togethers we have held so far. Unfortunately, I have the details of only 1,000 women,” he said. It’s still culturally taboo to look for a partner at an older age, especially in more conservative smaller cities of India, he added.

As an extra incentive to women, Patel’s foundation invites men who enter a new live-in relationship to put money into their partner’s account each month or to invest in an apartment in the woman’s name, so that she has financial security in case of a break-up.

“I do this as most women who come forward for companionship are more vulnerable than men,” he said.

Women in traditional Indian households often depend on men to take care of their finances, including handing over any money they make to their husband. Family funds are often controlled by the eldest son after the father’s death and many older women in middle-class families may have no savings in their names if they’ve never worked.

Damle, from Happy Seniors, said he doesn’t believe in offering financial benefits to women signing up to this agency, because “we want companionship to be the main reason women say yes, not money.”

But he does make it easier for them to join. While men have to pay Rs 5000 ($65) to join, women can do so for free. “Because it is a massive step for many older women to even think of approaching the organization,” he explained.

Relationship counselor Hema Yadav-Kadam thinks that many senior citizens and their children are confused about what constitutes a live-in relationship.

“Many older people would like to get into it but hesitate because of society looking at living together as something immoral,” said Yadav-Kadam, who works with Damle to speak with children who oppose their parent’s decision.

“Fear of losing out on their inheritance, having a new contender in their parent’s will and the inability to deal with the social disapproval — that is inevitable and common — is what makes most children oppose (a new relationship),” said Yadav-Kadam.

Right to inherit property

Damle believes a live-in arrangement is ideal for older couples as it gives them a sense of independence within the relationship and avoids the paperwork and legal complexities of marriage.

Often people receive retirement pensions in their deceased spouse’s name or are entitled to a share in the property their husband owned. The right to those assets may end when a woman remarries, making it preferable to live with a new partner rather than getting wed.

Before ruling on the social aspect of living together in 2015, India’s Supreme Court ruled in 2013 that that living together was similar to marriage and that women had the right to inherit their partner’s property.

Before they begin dating or living together, Damle invites potential couples to sign an agreement spelling out everything from cooking responsibilities to joint finances. They draw up a will and even note down their expectations about sexual relations.

NM Rajeswari, 72, of Hyderabad in Southern India, and B Damodar Rao, 74, met eight years ago when Rao, a widower, registered with Thodu Needa, a non-profit Rajeswari runs to find companions for older adults.

They didn’t tie the knot. Instead, they exchanged garlands in front of their supportive children — an important step in a Hindu wedding ceremony. For many couples planning to live together, it symbolizes not just social validation, but is an acknowledgment of their partnership.

“Our society needs to understand and accept the need for emotional and even physical support at any age. This stigma (of late life companionship) has been running in the society for so long but with time it will hopefully change,” Rajeswari said.

Rajeswari’s daughter, Radhika Lakshmi, said social disapproval didn’t cross her or her siblings’ minds when her mother started looking for a new companion.

“We didn’t want to restrict her life or happiness because of what society thinks. Why should anybody have that right?” she asked.

Meena Lambe, 61, married her live-in partner, Arun Deo, 72, because his children were keen for their relationship to get the social stamp of approval. She would have been happy to remain as live-in partners, she said.

“My advice to all those who wish to find a companion later in life would be first to weigh the pros and cons and preferably be in a live-in relationship rather than marry, as one’s habits are less alterable by this age.”

When Kulkarni and Yardi decided to move in together, it wasn’t without opposition, but they did it anyway.

Yardi’s daughter initially wasn’t in favor of their decision, though she visits the couple regularly now. She changed her mind after several interactions with Kulkarni. “She was assured I would take care of her father,” Kulkarni said.

They are often asked by neighbors and friends if they wish to marry but the couple say they have no such plans.

“We are happy and want to keep things as they are,” Kulkarni said.

Stories of extraordinary kindness at the times of unprecedented Covid-19 crises

New Post has been published on https://apzweb.com/stories-of-extraordinary-kindness-at-the-times-of-unprecedented-covid-19-crises/

Stories of extraordinary kindness at the times of unprecedented Covid-19 crises

Lunchtime at Khao San, a restaurant in Mumbai’s hip Khar neighbourhood, usually means a flurry of orders for Thai green curry, tom yum soup and other pan-Asian dishes. But these days, its kitchen is busy churning out large quantities of more humble staples such as dal-chawal, chole-chawal and rajmachawal.

The food is packed neatly into boxes and sent out to be distributed in the slums of Dharavi and to Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation employees like sanitation staff, who have to report for work but would be hard-pressed to find a meal, with most establishments closed.

“We had decided to freeze operations even before the lockdown was announced for the sake of everyone’s safety,” says Vanitaa Lalwani, chef and partner at Khao San. “That was when Pragya Kapoor, founder of Ek Saath-The Earth Foundation, suggested we keep our kitchen open to help those who were not getting food. We thought it was a fabulous idea.” The foundation provides the ration, bought with donations, while Khao San makes the meals. For over a week now, 2,000 packages are being sent out every day for lunch and dinner.

Since the lockdown brought all activities to a halt, there have been several horror stories: of people struggling to find even a morsel of food and of migrant workers left stranded, among others. Then there is the daily rise of Covid-19 cases and deaths and the discrimination being faced by people suspected to have caught the virus. Yet, as we physically distance ourselves from one another amid this avalanche of bad news, people have come together in the most extraordinary ways to go the extra mile and lend a hand. Across the country, instances abound of people trying to do what they can to help.

In Hyderabad, K Venkata Murali, MD of Kaligotla Technologies, is serving over 5,000 meals daily to the poor through his NGO, No Food Waste. This is double the number of meals the NGO distributed before the lockdown. In Chennai, Bibhuddatta Panda, a software executive, sets out on his bike every noon to distribute food packets to the poor on the road. He feeds about 50 on weekdays and double that number on weekends.

Panda, who has been living in Chennai for the last decade, runs an NGO, Let’s Feed The Needy. But he prefers to distribute the food packets himself, so as to reduce the risk to other members. The 34-year-old says it is hard to express the extent of hunger he sees. “You see people who are very needy, very hungry. Some people get their first meal of the day around 2 pm, when I reach them with food.”

Murali talks about how the migrant workers in Hyderabad have been abandoned by their employers. “The workers would not have money, their contractor would have switched off his phone and they would be too embarrassed to step out and ask for food.” He and his group recently helped feed 1,500 such workers from Uttar Pradesh and Jharkhand who were employed at a construction site in Bachupally.

“They teared up as they told us how tough it had been for them to find a single meal for the past four days,” he says. The group is now in the process of arranging ration packs of atta, rice, pulses and spices for the needy. The NGO, originally focused on feeding the poor, now also delivers essentials free of charge to senior citizens living by themselves.

The Goregaon Residents Welfare Association (GORWA) in Mumbai has also morphed from an organisation that helps apartment societies in solid waste management to one resolving the needs of the elderly and the poor. The association president, Nitesh Jadhav, says they began by helping daily wagers with food but they soon began getting calls about senior citizens living alone and unable to buy essentials. “We also provide home-cooked food twice a day to about 120 people who are too old to cook,” says Jadhav, a global consultant with Tech Mahindra. The association has tied up with trusted auto rickshaw and taxi drivers to ferry dialysis and cancer patients to hospitals for treatment as well.

The efforts to help the vulnerable are not limited to fellow human beings. Over 500 km from Khao San, Cohiba, a bar in Goa’s Sinquerim popular with tourists and locals alike, has also made changes to its menu, in a manner of speaking. With the restaurant closed for business, its staff are helping prepare vats of turmeric-infused rice cooked with meat stock and scraps. Volunteers pick up what has fondly been dubbed “doggie biriyani” and drop it off on the beach, from where lifeguards distribute it among 150-odd stray dogs, some of whom have now begun lining up in anticipation, tails wagging furiously.

The stray dogs, who used to feed on scraps from beach shacks, started becoming aggressive once these outlets closed due to the lockdown and they went hungry. “The dogs were hungry and dehydrated and would come charging at you. In our calls with lifeguards, this was brought up a few times and they said they had started carrying sticks for protection,” says Divya Sharma, head of culture and brand at Drishti Lifesaving, the company that provides lifeguard services for Goa’s beaches.

Sharma and her team realised they would have to act fast. To set up a community kitchen from where dogs could be fed regularly, they put out a call through their networks asking for help with vessels and ration.

“The most wonderful thing was how the community around us responded,” says Sharma, 39. Cohiba immediately offered the use of their premises, and help from staff. Other residents stepped forward with offers of ration and meat and money. “The whole thing became a community effort rather than an individual saying ‘I like dogs and want to feed them’,” says Sharma.

Others who have launched donation drives and helplines, too, talk about the heartening response they are receiving from volunteers and the community. Mahita Nagaraj, a Bengaluru-based digital marketing executive who launched Caremongers India in March, says the group grew to over 33,000 members in just a month. Nagaraj launched the Facebook group, where requests for help are matched with volunteers across the country, and a helpline after friends abroad sought her help for their aging parents. Today, she and the group field hundreds of calls and messages every day.

One such call recently was from a senior citizen who broke down on the phone. “He needed to get some alternative medicines for his wife, who has stage-4 cancer. Their doctor, who was stuck abroad, had arranged for the medicines but it was in Goregaon while the couple lived in Prabhadevi, over 20 km away,” says Nagaraj.

Thanks to the army of Caremongers, the medicines were delivered to his doorstep in four hours flat.

In another recent case, a senior citizen with blood cancer and a pelvic fracture needed red rice, one of the few things she was comfortable eating. But no shop in Mumbai had stock of the rice, which is common in Kerala.

One of the volunteers, who had some, delivered it to the senior citizen’s house but refused to take any money for it. “The lady and her daughter were so touched that they made him wait while they hand-painted a card and gave it to him with a thank-you note,” says Nagaraj. This, she says, is just one of the hundreds of examples that help her go to sleep with a big smile on her face.

Large-scale crises, whether the pandemic or a flood, do tend to inspire such outpourings of help, both in cash and in kind.

“Crises bring a sense of solidarity among the crowd. We saw it for the first time in the Chennai floods of 2015, and have seen the same for natural disasters in Kerala, Odisha and other states,” says Mayukh Choudhury, cofounder of crowdfunding platform Milaap, which has seen 1,100 fundraisers set up for Covid-19-related causes in less than a month. Together, the Covid-19 causes have raised around `75 crore.

American writer Rebecca Solnit has documented this phenomenon of the sense of solidarity and communities that rise from the ruins of disasters in her book A Paradise Built in Hell. “Disaster… drags us into emergencies that require we act, and act altruistically, bravely, and with initiatives in order to survive or save the neighbours, no matter how we vote or what we do for a living,” she wrote. The current pandemic, while not a natural disaster, has nevertheless seen many such instances, like the 82-year-old retired teacher in Kolkata who waved to catch the attention of the police, only so that he could hand over a cheque of `10,000.

Nagaraj says the flood of offers of help are inspired by the realisation that this has to be a community effort. “Yes, it is your individual efforts that matter but this is not something someone else can solve — it is something that can be won only with community power,” she says. The lockdown has also shown how dependent all of us are on each other. “While you cope with that reality, you tend to be more empathetic to others who are worse off.”

Drishti’s Sharma says everyone seems to have put aside some of their apathy. For instance, when they launched their effort to feed strays, she expected to face many questions about why she was choosing to feed animals at a time when people were starving.

“But till date, not a single person has asked me that.” There are, of course, the few bad apples. Murali says he got a request from a senior citizen to deliver groceries. When volunteers reached the house, they saw the couple lived with their children and grandchildren, all hale and hearty. Caremongers’ Nagaraj says about 30% of calls the helpline gets are from people who want to order pizza or those who shout when they are told volunteers can’t deliver meat and fish. But the majority of calls are from those who actually need help, she says.

“And think about this — the 33,000 people who have signed up are mostly folks I have never met, who want to help people they have never met.”

Will one of the many legacies Covid-19 bequeaths be a world that is a little kinder? Perhaps, if Khao San’s Lalwani is speaking for many more when she says “We are going to make sure we will go the extra mile to help others even after the pandemic ends. It does not stop here.”

Tips To Choose A Retirement Home

Sitalakshmi Gopalan, a retired school teacher in Delhi, invested in a senior living project in Coimbatore. Although her children continue to stay in Delhi, she was clear that she wanted to stay with people her age and live a leisurely life. Similarly, Jitender Singh and his wife, residents of Pune, whose children worked abroad, sold their property and invested in a senior living project in the city. Gopalan and Singh represent a small segment of buyers, who opt for retirement communities, in a country where the multi-generational ‘joint family’ structure still endures, despite modernisation.

Accounting for less than 1% of the $25-billion senior housing industry worldwide, the concept of senior citizen housing, still carries a social stigma in the country. According to a JLL analysis of 135 urban cities and towns in India, with a total population of 223 million and a total of 52 million households, households with seniors stood at 12.8 million (24.6%). Of these, the demand for formal senior living facilities, is estimated to be around 3,00,000 dwelling units.

However, there is a large gap between potential customers and customers who are aware of their requirements, points out Ashwin Kumar Iyer, CEO, Vedaanta Senior Living LLP. “Being a relatively new industry, the concept also needs to go through a steep awareness curve. Typically, the price for high-income senior units is around Rs 50-75 lakhs and above, while it is Rs 25-50 lakhs for mid-income and Rs 10-25 lakhs for low-income,” adds Iyer.

Hotspots for retirement home projects

Although there is a nationwide requirement for senior housing, south India seems to be the largest market.

“We found that Tamil Nadu had the largest percentage of senior customers with high per capita income, making it a very interesting state for projects on senior living,” says Ankur Gupta, joint managing director, Ashiana Housing Ltd. Consumers in this segment, prefer properties that have open spaces, pollution-free environment and are close to their friends and family. People like to retire in places, where they spent a lot of time, or their children are settled. Therefore, projects along the outskirts of cities and towns, have witnessed good demand. Cities like Coimbatore, Chennai, Bengaluru, Pune, Puducherry, Hyderabad, Kanchipuram and Bhiwadi, have become popular locations for senior living.

Amenities that a senior living complex should have

The amenities of a senior living complex, are different from other target age groups. The projects should be self-sustaining, so that the residents do not have to venture out to look for basic services. “Home seekers should consider the cost of the dwelling unit, monthly maintenance charges, presence of healthcare facilities and other amenities for senior citizens at the community site. This includes quality food, clean water and space for exercise and leisure,” says Dr PM Chandrashekara, resident medical officer and board member, Sushruta Vishranthi Dhama Ltd: Suvidha Retirement Village.

The project should also have easy access to transport facilities, railway stations and the airport, if possible. The retirement community should, ideally, be located in a serene location, with good ventilation and sunlight and also be connected to the city’s main areas.

Property prices in senior citizen projects

So, would the addition of senior-friendly amenities, add to the total cost of the project?

“Yes, the cost will be 10%-15% higher than a regular project,” says Iyer. Gupta explains that the planning of facilities and designing a senior living complex, can add almost Rs 100 per sq ft to the construction cost. “There are two categories of investors, in the retirement home segment. The first category, invests with a view to sell the dwelling at an appropriate time and make a profit. The second are genuine retirees, who want to live in a community project that is designed for people of their age,” says Chandrashekara.

Costs and benefits to consider, in senior living projects

The price for high-income senior living units is around Rs 50-75 lakhs and above, while it is Rs 25-50 lakhs for mid-income and Rs 10-25 lakhs for low-income.

Factors that one should look for in a retirement home, include its location, accessibility from the airport and railway station, proximity and availability of medical services and hospitals and connectivity to the city.
