-
Sign a Deposit confirmation and pay an initial deposit to secure your home for seven days while we prepare your 99-year term lease agreement.
-
Pay the final deposit upon signing.

Meet with your staff member to work through getting your home ready.

Pay your final settlement and move in.
SELLING YOUR HOME
The freedom of choice that will be available to Mountain Haven Resort occupancy now extends to you, when of course you need, and/or plan to move in. Life happens, and things inevitably change, whether it is your health, the desire to be closer to family, or simply your downsizing plan failing due to a failed sale of your current home. Whatever your reason, please rest assured that at MHR we make it easy for you to take the next step in your lifestyle choice at any time, and always remember that you will never be 'locked in' for any specific term when you purchase any of our property(s).
Best of all, you get to keep 100% of your capital gain, as you don't need to pay any capital gains taxes, no matter how much money you make on any resale if you maintain your villa or unit as your primary place of residence.

REFERRAL PROGRAM
Let us say "Thank you".
When you refer a friend to us who buys a new home, we will provide you with a nice thank you to the tune of $5,000 as a referral fee to assist you with you move.

FEES AND COST OF LIVING
The Mountain Haven Resort model wraps many household expenses into your weekly fees. This makes budgeting a breeze and gives you certainty about the cost of living.
You may be eligible for rent assistance if you are receiving a pension through Centrelink. This can reduce your fee by $60/week.
The weekly fee is subject to an annual CPI adjustment or a yearly formula review to factor in any extraordinary rises in government charges rates etc.
We also help you keep a lid on your electricity bills through the design and consumption of our superior energy-efficient homes.
As well as enjoying greater financial peace of mind, you may also have more money to enjoy a better quality of life. Downsizing or sizing right for you often frees up more capital from the sale of the family home.
The weekly BC fees cover:
-
All community facilities, maintenance and upkeep.
-
A range of community activities and committee.
-
All landscaping and waste management (in common areas).
-
Water rates & charges.
-
Building & Public Liability Insurance.
