Frequently Asked Questions
Independent living is life as you know it now, with the added security of community, low maintenance homes, support services and facilities all designed to encourage you in your most senior years to remain socially active and connected. You choose how much, or how little, activity or support you want.
When you purchase a villa in an Adventist Senior Living village, you will be granted a right of residence in that particular villa during the term of the license. You will not own the title to the property, but you can enjoy full use of all the village amenities for as long as you reside with us.
No. You are purchasing a license to live in the villa, rather than the villa itself. With this in mind, only the person(s) listed on the contract may reside in the villa.
The cost to live in an Adventist Senior Living retirement village varies depending on the villa location and the villa age.
You may reserve a villa with a $1,000 fully-refundable deposit. Should you opt to customise your villa before you move in, your upfront deposit is increased to $5,000.
All residents pay a weekly recurrent fee, that may vary by village and villa size. The recurrent fee covers services such as building maintenance, building insurance, gardening of common areas and lawn maintenance, council rates, garbage removal, water rates and usage.
Yes. The Retirement Villages Act (NSW) governs conduct and contractual arrangements of all retirement villages in New South Wales and is administered by the NSW Fair Trading.
Additionally, state legislation requires all villages to create rules and regulations that encourage harmonious co-existence between residents. While not a mandatory requirement a Residents Committee plays an important role in establishing these rules, facilitating communication between residents and the Village Manager, working to enhance your independent living experience. The Residents Committee represents the interests of all residents. Committee members are nominated and elected by residents annually.
Choosing an Adventist Senior Living retirement village allows you to live independently and happily in your most senior years, with new opportunities for social connection, friendship, laughter and wellness in homes designed to age with you. Feel safe and secure in a community that not only looks out for each other, but also provides quick access to emergency services if ever needed.
No. We acknowledge and respect spiritual diversity and faith in all of our Lifestyle Communities. The Seventh-day Adventist organisation welcomes everyone, regardless of race, creed, or religion. Our mission is to serve people and our focus is on providing person-centred care and support based on Christian principles. We are, quite simply, people caring for people.
You can make some alterations to the interior or exterior of your villa at your cost, once given approval by the Village Manager. When making alterations, you will have to abide with policies in place to protect the aesthetic quality and integrity of the Lifestyle Community.
No. As you are purchasing a license to live in the villa (rather than the title to own the property), your villa will be returned to Adventist Senior Living after your occupancy. Any incoming resident must enter into a new contract with Adventist Senior Living.
Yes, absolutely. We encourage residents to maintain strong relationships with their family and friends. Visitors or short-stay guests are welcome at any time – we just ask that you let the Village Manager know to expect some new faces around the complex. If your guest is to stay longer than two weeks, you must seek written consent from the Village Manager.
We recognise that this may happen from time to time and allow a 90-day settling in period for you to change your mind. In the event that you do wish to vacate your villa within the 90-day period, you are entitled to a refund of your purchase price, less payment of a fair market rent for the time your villa was occupied, costs for any alterations you may have chosen to make to the villa during the period of your stay, and any associated solicitor costs.
