At the time of entry, incoming residents must be 55 years of age or more, and all prospective residents must be able to cope with day-to-day living in their selected accommodation. There is no requirement to be fully retired from work to become a resident.
We offer 1 and 2 bedroom independent living units.
Initially, this simply involves an interview, filling in a ‘letter of intention’ for your selected accommodation and paying a holding deposit of $1000, which is held by our solicitors trust account and fully refundable if you are unable to proceed. This provides priority to you for 14 days.
We recommend you discuss the documentation with a solicitor of your choice prior to signing and exchanging agreements. Contracts are normally exchanged within 14 days of the documents reaching your solicitor.
Sometimes the agreement can be made subject to the sale of your existing home, and any deposit paid by you to the trust account is fully refundable should you be unable to sell your home in accordance with the terms of the agreement. Only the legal costs and expended disbursements are non-refundable once contracts have been exchanged.
