1、The Rise of Senior Living Value and Risk AdvisoryMay 2023Investment opportunities in Hong Kong and the Mainland Cities of the Greater Bay Area2The Rise of Senior LivingForewordOur world is changing.The way we live,the way we work,the way we interact with one another and even the way we organise our
2、lives continues to evolve.Globally,we face the reality of an ageing population and a reshaping of traditional values as we re-imagine how we wish to live.Within Hong Kong,around 20%population is over the age of 65 and this share is expected to rise to around 34.5%by 2040.In China,this figure stands
3、at just under 19%and is expected to reach 30%by the end of the next decade.By 2050,Hong Kong will have the oldest population in the world.As our world gets older,our lifestyle and the way we choose to live in old age has and continues to change.In both Hong Kong and China,the population is increasin
4、gly living longer,healthier lives and the economic boom of the past few decades has provided seniors with more wealth and independence than ever before.This enables them to choose a different way of living during their senior years.At the same time,the way we view the traditional family unit continu
5、es to evolve as well.Our lives are becoming busier and more global,and an increasing number of working families are now choosing to live and work overseas,leaving behind elderly parents.Historically,the elderly population would have few options for living in their senior years other than living with
6、 family or in an elderly home.So what do you do if you wish to retain your lifestyle and continue to live independently?Weve observed similar trends and shifts before in both North America and Europe during the 1970s and 1980s,which laid the foundations for the establishment of a Senior Living marke
7、t.Fast forward to 2023,and this has become a major real estate investment sector which has consistently outperformed the wider real estate market over the past 20 years.As Asia now stands at the same crossroads,how will the Senior Living market in Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area(GBA)1 evolve,and
8、what opportunities does this present for developers and investors?This white paper assesses the current situation in Hong Kong and the GBA,exploring what opportunities exist.We have also studied overseas markets to see what sort of investment return may be possible and what is required to make this
9、sector feasible in Hong Kong and the GBA.We are delighted to share this report prepared by our industry-leading professionals and look forward to working with you on the advancement of this sector.1 Disclaimer:In this paper where we refer to the GBA or Greater Bay Area,we are focusing on those GBA c

11、ore aspirational and active lifestyle in their old age.Currently,the elderly market predominantly consists of elderly home facilities,which are often quite basic and can be unappealing to both our elderly population and their families.To address this need,we see the emergence of Senior Living as an
12、asset class that provides a more attractive alternative,but presently,very few Senior Living facilities exist in Hong Kong.3Elderly Homes Low-cost,basic facilities with on-site nursing care provided,but little else.Normally operated by non-governmental organisations(NGOs),charities or the government
13、 and typically found on the upper floors of retail podiums within older residential buildings.Limited independence and privacy,with residents generally required to abide by the operating schedule of the care home.Senior Living Aspirational retirement apartments with a range of facilities on offer,in

16、posed theextension of the Residential Care Services Scheme in Guangdong in order tomake it easier for Hong Kong seniors to live in the GBA.However,Hong Kong elderly residents remain hesitant due to concerns over medical care.With a much higher land supply and lower costs,the barrier to entry in the
17、GBA is lower than it is in Hong Kong,creating opportunities.Senior Living as an asset class is very new in Hong Kong.Despite a few government-led developments in recent years,the sector remains under-developed.With more families leaving Hong Kong and more elderlies seeking to live independently,dema
18、nd for elderly residences is rising and supply is unable to keep up.A survey conducted by The University of Hong Kong of Golden Aged Residents(those aged between 45 and 65)revealed that 70%of respondents are concerned about how they will live in retirement.Mainland Cities of the GBAHong KongGBAHong
19、KongThe Rise of Senior Living6Senior Living facilities can generate a significantly higher rental return than traditional residential.In other parts of the world,the Senior Living sector now forms one of the major real estate asset classes,competing with established sectors such as office,retail and
20、 industrial for institutional capital.Typically,Senior Living attracts a cap rate premium providing a stronger return for investors,while the nature of the occupancy can provide a stable,long-term return which can be more resilient than other sectors.With limited existing stock and growing levels of

23、e Rise of Senior LivingHong Kong elderly market overview7Market overviewBased on the 2020 population figures from the Hong Kong Census and Statistics Department,the share of the population over the age of 65 is around 20%.By 2045,this will reach 34.5%,compared to just 7%in 1981 and 13%in 2011.Indeed
24、,by 2050 Hong Kong will have the oldest elderly population in the world.At the same time though,the elderly population has never been as healthy or as affluent as it is today.An increasing number of elderly residents wish to continue to live independent and active lifestyles,and with greater wealth,
25、they are seeking new ways to spend their retirement.Todays elderly population aspire to live a different way to how their parents and grandparents lived.At present,the options available to the elderly in Hong Kong are either to continue to live with family or to move into an elderly home.But these a
26、re often quite basic facilities that offer little privacy and independence and dont necessarily meet the requirements of the changing elderly demographic.With our elderly population living longer and increasing as a total share of the population,Hong Kong faces an acute shortage of living options fo
27、r this demographic.Whilst the population aged 65 or above is forecast to grow by 46.3%in the next decade,the number of residential care places for the elderly is only scheduled to increase by 0.24%.8Elderly HomesAs of December 2022,there were around 800 elderly homes in Hong Kong,providing approxima
28、tely 76,200 care places.Elderly home premises have traditionally been the only option available for elderly residents in Hong Kong other than living with younger relatives.Whilst elderly homes provide crucial services and care to elderly residents,the facilities are often basic and offer little priv
29、acy or independence.Senior Living ResidencesThis is a relatively new asset type in Hong Kong which is designed to cater to the needs of middle-class elderly residents who maintain a degree of self-care ability.As of Q4 2022,there were approximately 1,615 Senior Living units in Hong Kong,including 1,
30、536 developed by Hong Kong Housing Society(HKHS)and around 79 units by private developers.Market operators are mainly NGOs,charities and listed companies.Typically built by private developers and owned by investors,with a third party private care company serving as the operator.A licence for operati
31、on is required.Typically,no licence is required.The accommodation fee is usually paid monthly by the residents.Various payment types,including monthly fees,a debenture system,or even private treaty sales.Maximum building height of 24 meters.No limits on the building height.Typically,residents lease
32、a bed space rather than a designated private area.Residents normally lease or buy a private self-contained apartment within the facility.In-house care is usually limited to nursing facilities,and additional medical care requires external services.Most Senior Living residences will have on-site medic
33、al and leisure facilities providing specialist services.Generally,these facilities are aimed at elderly residents who need regular nursing care.The level of care provided is flexible and tailored to the residents actual needs.Elderly Homes&Senior Living features and comparisonsThe Rise of Senior Liv

37、 Statistics DepartmentProjection by JLLThousandsThe Rise of Senior Living10So,we know the following:Elderly homes are increasingly unsuitable for a growing share of our elderly population,for whom remaining active and independent are the primary concerns.This creates opportunities within the Senior
38、Living sector to enter the market as an asset class in its own right.But what is Senior Living?Why is it different?And what could it mean for you?Globally,the elderly population is increasing and nowhere more so than in Hong Kong.As such,we need more living options for this demographic.We are not bu
39、ilding enough homes for our elderly population in Hong Kong.We need to build a lot more to keep pace with this growing sector.The Rise of Senior LivingThe Rise of Senior LivingSenior Living facilitiesWith more elderly residences required to meet the rapidly growing senior population and a possible s
40、hift in the type of residences elderly people favour,there is a real opportunity to develop Senior Living facilities in Hong Kong.However,this remains a relatively new and un-tested asset type in Hong Kong,and its only in the past few years that private developers have started entering the market.11
41、12Timeline of Senior Living development in Hong Kong:What is Senior Living?Forget what has come before,Senior Living can be viewed as an entirely new asset class in Hong Kong,comprising aspirational residential apartments within a complex that also offers a number of nursing,medical,entertainment an
42、d service facilities to residents which would not be available in either an elderly home or a private residence.As our elderly populations become wealthier and healthier than ever before,it is only natural that they will increasingly look for a different way of living in their retirement.Globally,we
43、 are observing an increasing number of elderly people expressing a preference for living independently rather than moving in with their children.With increased levels of affluence and better levels of health,enabling them to continue living an active lifestyle,we see an elderly population that is le
44、ss reliant upon the younger generation and more empowered to make their own choice as to how they wish to live.Senior Living has emerged as an increasingly popular option for elderly residents,providing them with both independence and an aspirational lifestyle with high-quality accommodation and a n
45、umber of services at hand to make their lives more convenient.Cheerful Court 彩頤居Ngau Tau Kok,KLNHarmony Place 樂融軒 Shau Kei Wan,HK IslandPatina Wellness 蔚盈軒 Kowloon City,KLNThe Tanner Hill 雋悅 North Point,HK IslandBlissful Place 豐頤居 Hung Hom,KLNVentria Residence 曦蕓居 Happy Valley,HK IslandJolly Place 樂

49、ranging from assisted living to memory care and advanced nursing careSuitable for elders with limited care needsSuitable for elders that require a higher level of careBy contrast,elderly homes provide a high level of care but limited flexibility in terms of how much care is provided.The care is also
50、 mainly limited to nursing support rather than specialist medical care,making it unsuitable for residents who want greater flexibility in how they live and are cared for.Private housing,on the other hand,provides independence,but no care,making it also increasingly unsuitable as residents get older.
51、Source:Analysis by JLLThe Rise of Senior LivingThe Rise of Senior LivingWhat makes Senior Living different?There are four major elements to Senior Living that help distinguish it from elderly home facilities and which make it better suited to meet the changing needs of elderly residents.We have outl
52、ined these in the following pages,but the simplest way to look at the sector is to imagine a co-living or serviced apartment with on-site medical and nursing care.Senior Living facilities can also often be self-contained communities,with access to dentists,medical care,restaurants,cafs,gyms and cine
53、mas often included.14Leisure/Social Spaces Companionship and the opportunity to stay active and social are key elements of Senior Living.Typically,clubhouses and lounge areas are included for residents to pursue passions and focus on leading social lives beyond retirement.Clubhouses include gardens,
54、fitness facilities,recreation rooms,restaurants,cafs and cinemas.A fee for using these facilities is usually included within the service charge,supporting a proportion of the long-term operating expense and providing additional income to the operator.Working Spaces Some elderly residents wish to rem
55、ain active and connected,and for them,workspaces can be included.This can provide easy computer access for residents or serve as a place for them to continue pursuing some form of work or keep up with correspondence.Family Senior Living facilities are tailor-made for large family structures.Spaces a
56、re designed to facilitate access and visits by family to promote and maintain strong familial bonds and care.Playground facilities can be included for visiting grandchildren while other considerations are made to ensure that all services are available to support the whole family on visits.Community1
57、5The Rise of Senior LivingGerontechnology is a major differentiator and an essential component of Senior Living.Apart from providing traditional elderly support,gerontechnology is also vital to meet the growing need for modernisation advances,such as AgeTech,provision for the Internet of Things and
58、robotic care products.Fitness Maintaining regular exercise is important,and the inclusion of tech-based solutions for stimulating physical activities is a key differentiator.Health Monitoring Tech solutions such as artificial intelligence(AI)and robotics can assist in different types of health monit
59、oring such as activity and behavioural checks.Data can be collected and transmitted to cloud-computing systems where medical and other preference analyses can be conducted for predictive measurements.This ensures a better experience for residents by providing more privacy and less intrusive health c
60、hecks.Risk Detection Risk detectors can be attached to walls and other internal structures to ensure normal movement and check for things such as trips or slips.Other sensors can also check key metrics such as temperature,respiration,heart rate and can record any abnormal activities to ensure prompt
61、 assistance whenever necessary.Gerontechnology16The Rise of Senior LivingThe pricing structure for Senior Living can be very different,and operators in Hong Kong and China have been experimenting with a number of different models:Lease for Life Under this structure,tenants are required to pay a lump
62、 sum rent at the beginning of the tenancy to enjoy a relatively carefree stay throughout retirement.There are numerous ways in which occupiers can finance this,such as Debentures and a Reverse Mortgage.Life Insurance Products Funds raised through insurance products are used to pay for Senior Living
63、development.Monthly insurance premiums can sometimes be inclusive of rent in a Senior Living facility.Debentures By investing in asset-backed financial instruments,tenants can receive a rate of interest during their stay and be repaid a lump sum on the date of maturity.Monthly Rental A fee is paid e
64、ach month for a contract period.Private Treaty Sales A key difference is that private Senior Living residences can be exchanged in the market.This is an attractive option for occupiers seeking capital appreciation and who wish to retain a sense of“home ownership”.Payment Models17The Rise of Senior L

66、d a general physician.The level of care is flexible and can vary depending on the type of Senior Living you choose:Independent Living Round-the-clock care and health monitoring can be available on-site and on demand which allows residents to live independently and choose when they see a medical prof
67、essional with a range of flexible care options.Memory Care Specialists are available on-site to provide a whole brain fitness programme that helps cure the symptoms of dementia.The staff provide physical and social activities geared towards rebuilding cognitive strength.Assisted Living Regular home

69、n programmes.Medical18The Rise of Senior LivingThe Rise of Senior LivingUse of Gerontechnology in Senior LivingWith the elderly population increasingly seeking more luxurious living facilities,a major unique selling proposition for Senior Living is based on the living standards and facilities of the
70、 properties.Gerontechnology is one of the key components used to provide this service.This could take the form of a smart living system or the use of AI to handle some simple tasks.We have simulated a sample Senior Living apartment set-up based on real cases in Hong Kong,where digital solutions are
71、used to enhance overall elderly living standards.1920A Smart Living System is installed in each unit featuring voice command and facial recognition abilities.All data collected is transferred to a cloud-based medical system that helps monitor residents vital signs.A smart vacuum cleaner performs cle

73、ontrol the room temperature and airflow,serving a dual purpose as an air purifier to help with infection control.A companion butler-like robot is installed in each unit.This can help measure and monitor vital signs,detect falls,provide medication reminders and serve as an in-room concierge assisting
74、 with things like meal ordering and in-room entertainment.Source:JLLThe Rise of Senior LivingThe Rise of Senior LivingSenior Living in Hong KongMost of the existing Senior Living facilities in Hong Kong work on a long lease arrangement,with tenants paying the rent in full and refunds being made upon
75、 the termination of the rental period.On top of this,there is usually a service charge that covers care needs and additional services.This forms a major part of the total revenue generated and can vary considerably.2122Senior Living marketGovernment:Hong Kong Housing SocietyPrivate DevelopersJolly P

79、lopers business models:Source:Analysis by JLLThe Rise of Senior LivingMonthly Rental Model The monthly rental model is more akin to what you would typically expect to see in standard residential,elderly homes,multifamily or co-living.As such,it is a known quantity and easy to model over time to perf
80、orm feasibility studies.It also allows occupiers to invest capital elsewhere and use dividends or investment returns to partially fund their monthly rental commitments.The major disadvantage of this model to investors and operators is that it does not provide any significant upfront capital,although
81、 some will combine a monthly rent with a one-off lease premium at entry.Private Treaty Sales Model This is a model we have seen extensively elsewhere in the world and which has proven popular due to it providing occupiers with the ability to benefit from capital appreciation over time.It is very pop
82、ular with occupiers who are used to owning their property.The model provides a quick return for investors and developers on their initial investment.However,the major disadvantage is that it only provides a single capital payment at the start of the project and reduces overall control over the prope
83、rty into the future.23The Rise of Senior LivingThe Rise of Senior LivingWhat about opportunities in the GBA?What sort of opportunities exist for Hong Kong investors and developers in the Greater Bay Area?The Outline Development Plan for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area released on 18 F
84、ebruary 2019 has emphasised the need to strengthen cross-border public services and provide a greater regional convergence of the welfare system.The 2021 Chief Executives Policy Address also proposed the extension of the Residential Care Services Scheme in Guangdong in order to make it easier for Ho
85、ng Kong elderly residents to move and live in other Mainland Cities of the GBA,where it may be possible to benefit from lower costs or a different lifestyle.Weve also seen further policies to try and promote cross-border medical services,such as the use of elderly health care vouchers for medical se
86、rvices which allows Hong Kong seniors to pay outpatient medical care fees in Guangdong.This,coupled with significantly lower land costs,creates opportunities for investors from Hong Kong to set up elderly social service institutions in the Mainland Cities of the GBA and makes it easier for Hong Kong
87、 residents to retire in Guangdong Province.This government support and the lower entry barrier,together with significantly more land area,which enables the development of larger retirement village style residences and Continuing Care Retirement Communities which create a great opportunity for invest

102、A,Senior Living presents an attractive opportunity,especially with residential conversion providing a potential exit strategy.However,there remain a number of key concerns with this sector which need to be carefully considered.Source:Analysis by JLLSource:Analysis by JLLThe Rise of Senior LivingCap
103、RatebpsThe Rise of Senior LivingWhat is needed to make Senior Living successful in Hong Kong and the GBA?Weve identified that this sector performs well overseas and that potentially,it could also perform well in Hong Kong and the GBA.However,we also identified a number of questions that potential in
104、vestors will want to explore further.3031Based on our research and knowledge of the subject,we have identified six key items that we need to address before Senior Living becomes a viable investment opportunity in Hong Kong and the GBA:01An operational model that works for investors,operators and occ
105、upiers.The key is finding the right model which is attractive to occupiers and also provides the desired level of return to investors.A monthly rental model similar to other alternative residential asset types may prove the most effective in this regard.02Closer ties between investors and operators.
106、Generally,investors have the capital for Senior Living,but lack the operational know-how,whereas operators have the operational knowledge,but lack the capital.These two groups will need to form trusted partnerships to make the sector more feasible.04Suitable land/properties for development/conversio
107、n.Land prices in Hong Kong are high.This makes it challenging to find suitable plots or buildings with conversion potential.Developers should look at older residential buildings or hotels which may transact at a slight discount.In the Mainland Cities of the GBA,prices are lower,but with lower levels
108、 of potential return,there is a trade-off.05Rents/Prices to attain a level which provides an attractive return for investors.Traditionally,living options for senior residents were at the cheaper end of the scale.Senior Living bucks this trend and aims to provide aspirational housing.As such,rents an
109、d prices need to be at a premium,but is there the appetite to pay premium prices for this product at the moment?06Government SupportThe government needs to take steps to try and encourage more Senior Living development in Hong Kong.One of the hurdles at the moment is that Senior Living developers mu
110、st compete with residential developers during government land sales.The government could consider releasing land for tender with a specific Senior Living use clause,or make it easier to re-purpose existing assets for this use.This could encourage greater development in the sector.03A conversion from
111、 potential demand to actual demand so as to be able to feel confident about achieving a sufficient occupancy level.For Senior Living to be financially viable,projects need at least an 85%occupancy rate.We know that there is substantial potential demand,but will this translate into actual demand?The
