Tenure TermsTenure is by way of a Unit Title (Stratum Estate in Freehold) and owners are entitled to sell their property at any time on the open market and receive the full proceeds of the sale.

This is in contrast to most Retirement Villages where the tenure is by way of Licence to Occupy with owners being required to sell to the Village Operator at a pre-determined price.

Service Charge DetailsResidents pay fees for services provided within the village which include lawn mowing and garden maintenance, weekly rubbish collection, emergency pager, monthly window cleaning and exterior maintenance of the villas.

Within the fee structure (paid fortnightly in advance) there is a sum payable to the Body Corporate (a body in which all owners are members) which covers building insurance. Residents pay their own contents insurance, rates and utility charges.

Village fees are adjusted annually on 1 April by the movement in the Consumers Price Index (all groups).

NOTE: The Retirement Villages Act 2003 (hereafter referred to as The Act) is designed to provide improved protection for people who buy into a retirement village. If you intend to purchase you must get independent legal advice before signing your occupation right agreement as required under The Act. Further information about Retirement Villages is available in the section 'Frequent Questions'. Some Retirement Villages are not required to register under The Act so different legal requirements apply. Please do your homework.

In some villages there may be some units that have multiple uses e.g. a Serviced Apartment may also be used as a Residential Care Suite. The same unit may therefore show in several places on Eldernet.
