An aged care facility differs because it will often provide some level of personal or nusing care. The other key difference is that potential residents applying to an aged care facility are usually required to undergo an ACAT assessment.

Living in a retirement community provides many seniors with a higher quality of life. There have been studies which indicate that people living in retirement communities may be living for longer.

New research suggests that people in retirement villages are happier, healthier and have a greater sense of wellbeing than seniors who remain in their current home or existing lifestyle.

That’s it, that’s the only retirement village eligibility you need to meet. You merely have to be over 55 years of age.

We offer our services to sell the apartment on to an eligible person on your behalf, or you can do it yourself. The only stipulation is that it must be to somebody over 55.

The unit would usually go onto the open market. You have the option to choose whether we handle the sale or to go with a real estate agent.

However, with our desirable location with so many amenities on the doorstep, it’s often the case that we have a waiting list of people interested in investing in that particular apartment.

Unfortunately, because these retirement apartments are sold under a 99 year lease, the unit must change hands. While the unit can’t be left to someone in a Will, the proceeds from the sale of the unit can.

Capital growth is always determined by two things; location and supply/demand. With so many baby boomers on the Gold Coast, the demand is certainly there and we have a fantastic location with shopping centres, hospital, bowls club, airport, river and ocean all on our doorstep.

Residents buy into our units under a 99-year lease structure, the benefit of which is there’s no stamp duty on the purchase price. So really it is just the price of the unit itself – no extra retirement village entry contributions.

This 35% deferred management fee is an industry average in Queensland. Deferred Management fees have been around for about 30 years. They have proven to be very effective in providing a quality of life that would not have been otherwise possible.

As mentioned previously, the exit fee is used to maintain the operation of the retirement village. This includes cleaning, building maintenance and that of the onsite facilities.

Because you are paying at the end of your time with us, deferred fees allow us the opportunity to provide exceptional lifestyle facilities. This means a level of luxury, safety and wellbeing, without having to add a substantial premium to the purchase price.
