Can I do my own gardening?
Yes. If you are a keen gardener and would like to maintain the upkeep of the garden outside your villa you are welcome to do so. You will just need to let the Site Manager know if you want to plant trees and shrubs over 2 metres in height.
What if I change my mind after I move in?
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 you are entitled to a refund of your purchase price, less payment of a fair 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.
Who pays for gas, electricity, internet, water and council rates?
Residents are responsible for gas, electricity costs, phone/internet connection and usage costs and for the insurance of personal contents. Wyee Point Lifestyle Community recurrent charges cover the costs associated with water, council rates and building insurances.
What does the Residents Committee do?
State legislation requires all villages to create rules and regulations that encourage harmonious co-existence between residents. The Residents Committee has an important part to play in these rules, facilitating communication between residents and the Site Manager, working to enhance your community lifestyle. The Residents Committee represents the interests of all residents. Committee members are nominated and elected by residents annually.
Can I leave my villa to a family member or to my estate?
No. As you are purchasing a license to live in the villa (rather than the title to own the property), your villa must be resold to a new retiree resident meeting the village entry criteria, and they must enter a new contract with Adventist Senior Living. The proceeds from the sale of your villa can then be passed on to your estate.
Can I store a boat or a caravan on-site?
Yes, we do provide storage for your boat and/or caravan. Just let our Site Manager know so that we can be sure to accommodate your requirements. Limited space available.
Can I have children come and visit me?
Yes, of course. Children are very welcome to visit and use the Community facilities. As our Lifestyle Community is located lakeside side we do ask that all young visitors remain under proper adult supervision at all times.
Can I have family/friends staying with me?
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 Site 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 Site Manager.
Will any of these costs change?
Weekly recurrent fees change in line with annual CPI increases. They will not be increased beyond this unless residents vote to increase fees based on requests for new services and/or facilities.
What ongoing costs can I expect to pay?
All residents pay a weekly recurrent fee that may vary slightly depending on the size of your villa. Recurrent fees cover services such as maintenance of all buildings and villas, building insurance, gardening of common areas and lawn maintenance, council rates, garbage removal, water rates and usage.
Can I make alterations to my villa?
There are some alterations you can make to the interior or exterior of your villa at your cost, once given approval by the Village Site Manager. When making alterations you will have to abide with policies in place designed to protect the aesthetic quality and integrity of the Lifestyle Community.
Do I need to be a Seventh-day Adventist to purchase a villa?
No. At Wyee Point Lifestyle Community we acknowledge and respect spiritual diversity and faith. Our mission is to serve people, all people, regardless of religion, creed or race.
Who manages Wyee Point Lifestyle Community?
Wyee Point Lifestyle Community is owned and managed by Adventist Senior Living, a not-for-profit organisation run by the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Adventist Senior Living (previously Adventist Aged Care) has been in the aged-care industry since 1960.
Can I bring a pet?

You may bring one small dog or cat with the consent of the Site Manager. Wyee Point Lifestyle Community does have a pet replacement form and process.
Is guest accommodation available?
Guest accommodation is not currently available. Family visits are easy to accommodate in your spacious home.
Can I purchase a villa as an investment and rent it out?
No. Remember you are purchasing a license to live in the villa, not the villa itself. With this in mind only the person/s listed on the contract must reside in the villa.

You may reserve a villa with a $1000 fully refundable deposit. Should you opt to customise your villa your upfront deposit is increased to $5000.
