Ich habe das in Leuven zum Verkauf gesehen und es ist mir ein Rätsel. 242.000 Euro für ein neu gebaut Wohnung im Zentrum von Leuven. Für eine normale, nicht betreute Wohnwohnung wären das locker 350.000 Euro oder mehr.
Warum bauen Entwickler dann immer noch diese Wohnungen für betreutes Wohnen? Die Kosten für den Bau einer normalen Wohnung und einer Wohnung für betreutes Wohnen müssen ungefähr gleich sein, nicht wahr? Es ist nicht so, dass eine Küche oder ein Badezimmer auf magische Weise 100.000 billiger wird, nur weil es sich um eine Wohnung für betreutes Wohnen handelt.
Warum also bauen Entwickler immer noch Massen dieser Wohnungen, die am Ende viel günstiger verkauft werden als normale Wohnungen? Sicherlich tun sie es nicht aus reiner Herzensgüte
Question: Why do developers still build assisted living apartments?

So you would sell your older home, maybe to them and they have new investment. Happened with my parents in Ghent
Because they either have to by the local gouvernment. Or use the inclusiong to get subsidies.
Isn’t their a service component to them? I can imagine they could get a part of long term revenue. What might play into it as well is that you often have different players behind the scenes. Promoters, developers, builders and they have different triggers and incentives. I can imagine building something really standardised that you sell as a whole to large established service provider (doing the resale of the private parts) is a quick and guaranteed thing.
Don’t get why they do something similar for people under 30.
Drop a 25 floor tower in the middle of a city with 250k appartments.
You would never get a permit to build a block as big as that with 58m2 floor space per apartment.
I think this is actually quite profitable.
Developers often get contracts that include things like this. Yes, you can develop your luxury apartment site, but you need to also build an equivalent of 10% social housing, otherwise no contract.
My town’s entire inner „ring“ is filled with these apartments. Thousands of them.
Outside city center filled with blocks of 350-450k tiny single bedroom apartments nobody buys. They built them and been empty and abandoned for years.
1) Old people are rich, and have fewer other options.
2) permits are easier for this kind of social projects.
3) subsidies.
I think that the city of Leuven obligates a certain number of units in every big project to have a social purpose
Because assisted living counts as social so you don’t have to welcome poor people and still get the permit.
