Research on the Demand for Community Recreation and Health Facilities in Residential Communities

Company overview

Hai Hua Fa Ote Me Health Management Co., Ltd. was established in 2004 and is a specialized subsidiary under Hua Fa Real Estate Holdings Limited, focusing exclusively on health and fitness services. The company is committed to delivering premium health and fitness management services for Hua Fa's high-end residential projects, with operations covering the management and operation of fitness facilities and gymnasiums within residential communities. As a key element of Hua Fa's community service ecosystem, Hai Hua Fa Ote Me not only plays a vital role in enhancing the added value of residential properties but also actively explores innovative models for community-based healthy living, accumulating substantial operational experience and a robust management team resource base.

Research background

As residents' expectations for living environments and the quality of health-oriented lifestyles continue to rise, the positioning and operational effectiveness of 'fitness and health facilities' within residential community amenities have become key indicators of premium residential property quality. To better meet owners' expectations for healthy living environments and to explore sustainable commercial operations for these facilities, Hua Fa Ote Me plans to introduce or upgrade community fitness facilities in multiple Hua Fa residential projects across cities such as Zhanjiang, Shenyang, and Yixing. To ensure project feasibility and the effectiveness of future operations, the company urgently requires a scientific pre-market research initiative.

Research scope

In January 2020, CEIDEA Research was commissioned by Hai Hua Fa Ote Me Health Management Co., Ltd. to conduct a feasibility study on the development of community fitness and health facilities in Zhanjiang, Shenyang, and Yixing. This project employs a hybrid research approach combining macro-level market analysis with expert interviews. The macro-level survey covers urban population structure, health consumption trends, development levels of community amenities, and operational conditions of similar community facilities, providing a comprehensive assessment of local market receptiveness and development potential for health-oriented infrastructure. The expert interview segment features seasoned professionals from community operations, architectural design, and fitness service sectors, who will conduct in-depth discussions on design concepts, functional layouts, service offerings, and operational models. Additionally, the study analyzes behavioral preferences, willingness to pay, and usage frequency across various consumer segments.

Expected outcomes

The research ultimately provides a systematic understanding of the market readiness conditions for community fitness and health facilities in each target city, clearly identifies regional differences in owner demand and functional preferences, and offers a combined qualitative and quantitative reference framework for subsequent project development. The findings also propose preliminary recommendations on facility size recommendations, service function combinations, spatial layout logic, and commercial operational models, helping the client accurately define the target user groups, operational focus, and revenue models for future facilities. The final report conclusions will provide solid data support and actionable guidance for Hua Fa Ote Me to further expand its health management services within the real estate development sector.
