One of the best parts of living in a gated community is the freedom to lock and leave whenever you want to go on a holiday. Arcadia Waters Mandurah is fitted with excellent state-of-the-art security to enhance the safety of your home during your absences. Any resident leaving the retirement community for any period of time is asked to notify the Village Manager as a further precaution

Arcadia Waters Mandurah insures the buildings and common property. Residents are responsible for their own contents, health and liability insurance.

1. Ingoing contribution
When moving into Arcadia Waters Mandurah, you will pay a price for the Lease for Life of your home, determined by its size, location in the Village, market conditions and a lot of other factors – just as you would for any real estate transaction.

2. Operating costs
During your stay you’ll pay a monthly operating cost, which helps cover the running costs of the Village and amenities and keep the Village maintained to a very high standard. The monthly operating cost is estimated annually and provisionally fixed by Arcadia Group. The cost is determined after the end of each financial year.

3. Outgoing costs
Like most Retirement Village operators, Arcadia Waters Mandurah has a Deferred Management Fee (DMF) model which is a way for incoming residents to pay part of their costs after they move out – saving money up front so they have more to spend on enjoying their lifestyle during their stay. However, the structure of these fees is dependent on the financial contract chosen and will be carefully explained before you move in. A detailed explanation of the available financial models can be found in the Arcadia Group financial brochure. We strongly encourage all prospective residents to seek independent financial and legal advice before deciding which Lease for Life contract to proceed with.

Residents pay for electricity, telephone, gas and other services consumed in their own homes. Residents arealso responsible for their local council and water rates.

When you decide to terminate your Lease for Life with Arcadia Waters Mandurah, you will need to pay the refurbishment costs to bring your home back to near its original state. This helps raise the potential sales price of your home and makes it more attractive to potential buyers. This will be an agreed upon amount by you and Arcadia Waters Mandurah.

As all Arcadia Waters homes are purchased on a ‘Lease for Life’ basis, there is no Stamp Duty payable.

You may have a significant surplus from the changeover from your previous house to your new home. In either event, it is probable that your assessable assets will have changed with respect to your Centrelink pension, and it is advisable to contact Centrelink to discuss your personal situation.
