Thinking about retirement living?
If you’re exploring retirement village options, you may be wondering what age you can move into a retirement village, how much it costs, or if there are wait lists. The minimum age to move is 70, but the right time depends on your personal circumstances and preferences.
We recommend registering your interest early, as some village’s villas or apartments are in high demand. You can also chat to our team about the costs involved and what’s included in your weekly fee. Our aim is to make your move as smooth and stress-free as possible, so you can focus on enjoying your new home.
