Seniors and Downsizing Infographic




Did you know that 80% of Australians aged 65 and over currently own their own homes? While it’s great to have your own place, our needs often change as we get older. In fact, 43% of homeowners surveyed actually downsized when they relocated. Around half of those surveyed had relocated once since turning 50, while roughly a quarter had moved more than twice in that time!

Research has also found that:

  • Of the Baby Boomers who moved, or will consider moving once they become Empty Nesters, 36% will move more than three hours away, while 34% plan to move within 10kms
  • 63% were more likely to purchase a property that is smaller than their current home
  • 26% have said they will miss storage space the most when they move
  • 74% cited price as the single-largest influencer in future home purchase decisions
