Frequently asked questions

• How long do I have to wait?

  This depends on both your circumstances and our waiting list. When you are ready to make the move, we are often able to help you find your new home in a short time.

• What are the deferred management fees (Departure fees or DMF)?

  When you move to Anzac Village, Narrabeen the payment you make upon entry is partially refundable. There is a deduction for management fees of 10% (non- refundable) of the entry price of
  the home on the day you move in, and a further 4% per annum for a maximum of 5 years calculated on the price of the home on entry.

• Capital Gain?

  There is no sharing of any potential gain or loss – both remain
  with the Village.

• Once I have decided on the purchase of a home how long do I have to pay?

  If you do need to sell your current home to come into the village, we will hold your deposit against your home of choice for four weeks. At the end of this time, if your current home is not actively being marketed, we will refund your deposit to allow other clients who are more ready to proceed the same opportunity. If your home is on the market, we will continue to hold the home in your name but would expect settlement within three months from the date of deposit. At the end of this period, we would review the situation with you and may be able to offer you an extension. Your deposit is fully refundable at any time should you not proceed to settlement.
