Industry stalwarts Lois Towart and Edgar Baltins have strong views on which private operators will succeed in the future, which will fail and why.

With her experience as an analyst, valuer and property finance researcher, Lois has just completed the first complete assessment of the history of the retirement village sector and the strengths and weaknesses of the traditional financial models. With this understanding, looking forward she can see substantial cracks.

Edgar is known to many for 30 years at KPMG as the pioneer and innovator of tax structures that have formed the foundation of today’s retirement village sector. Edgar sees ‘disruption’ which both creates havoc and opportunity.
