Alondra Residences operates as a retirement village. Whilst you live at Alondra, you’ll pay a weekly fee made up of two parts – the General Services Charge and the Maintenance Reserve Fund Contribution. The General Services Charge covers the day-to-day running of the village, including garden upkeep, staff costs, building and public liability insurance and cleaning and lighting of communal areas. The Maintenance Reserve Fee covers longer-term maintenance and repairs to the building and your unit. Replacement of capital items, such as hot water systems, is covered by the village operator, Lutheran Services. You will also pay for any additional services that are arranged through the in-house concierge.

Residents are responsible for individual services connected to their apartment such as electricity, internet and telephone. Water access and usage, Wi-Fi in public areas and rates are included as part of the fortnightly fee.

You can secure your preferred apartment at Alondra with a $1,000 refundable deposit. When the deposit is paid, you will receive a document pack containing a number of documents that we are legally obliged to provide on purchase. Included in the document pack is your Licence to Reside or residence agreement. This is the contract that secures your tenure and explains the terms and conditions relating to your occupation. Once you have received your document pack, we encourage you to read in detail and seek advice from your solicitor or financial planner.

Alondra Residences operates as a retirement village. Purchasing a home in a retirement village is very different from purchasing a home in the residential market – different legislation applies and the required contracts, processes and costs are different. Typically when you buy a home in the residential market, you will own the freehold title. In a retirement villages you actually purchase a right to reside in the form of a Lease or Licence. At Alondra, we use a Licence to Reside to secure your tenure. The benefit of buying a home under a retirement village scheme is that the applicable legislation provides significantly more protection to residents when compared with standard property laws. For example, certain operating expenses paid by residents cannot increase beyond CPI unless approved by residents. Retirement villages legislation also secures the money you pay on entry through a statutory charge against the building title, in the unlikely event that the village operator experiences financial hardship.

A Licence to Reside entitles you to occupy the retirement village apartment until you decide to leave. In order to purchase a Licence to Reside, you pay an “Ingoing Contribution” (the cost of the apartment). While in residence, you accrue an Exit Fee that is deducted from the re-sale proceeds from your apartment. When you leave, we repay your Ingoing Contribution less the accrued Exit Fee.

An Ingoing Contribution is the cost of purchasing the Licence to Reside in the apartment and the village.

An Exit Fee (sometimes called a Deferred Management Fee) is accrued while you reside in your apartment and becomes payable when you leave. The Exit Fee is based on a percentage of the Ingoing Contribution (the cost of the Licence to Reside). The fee is calculated on a pro-rata daily basis.

When you leave Alondra, we repay you the Ingoing Contribution, less the Exit Fee accrued during your tenure.
