Barrier-free living <\/h1>\n\n\n\n

According to a survey conducted by Immowelt AG, the operator of one of Germany’s largest real estate portals, two thirds of respondents plan to move house in old age as they do not consider their own property to be fit for the future. However, this decision poses a conflict of interest for many. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the one hand, there is a reduced need for space after the children have moved out, a house with insurmountable stairs, a bathroom that is not suitable for senior citizens or doors that are too narrow and a thousand other small problems that you may not even notice now. On the other hand, there is the social environment, the neighborhood in which you may have lived for decades and the emotional attachment to your home. However, a property that is not currently barrier-free does not necessarily have to remain so. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following checklist<\/a> is intended to help you think about your future living situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Considering whether care in your own home is an option can also help with the decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, the demand for barrier-free living space is considerably greater than the supply. You should therefore consider whether your own property has the potential for conversion before embarking on the difficult search for an accessible property. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An ImmoBarrierefrei analysis also makes sense for private sellers who are unable to realize their asking price on the market. A well thought-out conversion concept increases the attractiveness of the property for sale and appeals to a much larger group of potential buyers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, we not only advise you on all structural issues relating to accessibility, but also on the various funding opportunities that make such a conversion feasible without a large outlay on your part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Better quality of life thanks to stairlift<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, the golden years are often accompanied by mobility restrictions. Stairs that were never a problem in the past are increasingly perceived as an obstacle. Installing a stairlift restores lost quality of life and freedom of movement within your own four walls and is a further step towards enjoying a well-earned retirement in familiar surroundings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’t wait until your property becomes a burden and maintain the quality of life in your own home. Let our competent partner Acorn <\/a>Treppenlifte advise you free of charge and without obligation! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
