Bouygues Immobilier uses its experience to help older people by designing and building two types of residence.
• Residences for non-dependent older people looking for secure, independent accommodation with everyday services like breakfast and cleaning.
• Care homes for the dependent elderly, unable to live alone. Offering social and medical care, the homes must comply with very strict standards and regulations.
Integration into the community
Every community needs this type of home or residence so that the elderly can continue to be a part of the urban and social fabric.
The services that residences and care homes provide generate local jobs.
Creating a care home is a complex business, involving central and local government, social services and healthcare agencies. Drawing on their extensive experience, Bouygues Immobilier's teams carry out projects in close cooperation with all the players involved.
A shrewd and socially responsible investment
A residence for older people or a care home represents a profitable investment that also meets a growing need, given demographic trends in Europe.

Investment in care homes is encouraged by significant tax breaks:
• private investors can reclaim VAT (value added tax) on the price,
• the income generated by the investment attracts little or no tax for up to 30 or 40 years.
It is also a safe investment, since the properties are maintained and managed and offer high rates of return.
