ENTRY CONTRIBUTION

The board has the discretion to allocate a number of units to concessional residents or may agree to vary the following entry contributions in specific circumstances. 

Studio / One bedroom unit:       $124,500

The entry contribution for studios and one bedroom units are priced below the extra allowable pension limit to permit the grant of government rent assistance to aged pensioners and veterans. The contribution retained by WRCA is put towards village operating costs. 10% of the contribution is required on signing the contract and the balance is payable on entry.  The whole of the contribution is non-refundable after two years’ residency. (However, if you leave the village before two years’ residency, a proportion of the contribution is refunded pro rata to you).

Two bedroom unit        $500,000

For two bedroom units a deposit of 25% is required on signing the contract and the balance is payable on entry. The deposit retained by WRCA is put towards village operating costs. The deposit is non-refundable after two years’ residency. (However, if you leave the village before two years’ residency, a proportion of the deposit is refunded pro rata to you).

After two years’ residency in a two bedroom unit, half of the remaining entry contribution is refunded to you in 10 equal annual instalments. Upon your vacating the unit, the remaining balance of entry contribution is paid as a lump sum to you or, upon death, to your estate.

Entry contributions paid by incoming Residents are treated separately from the operating accounts and invested in bank or other approved secure funds.  The Board approves the use of interest earned by investments.

HOSTEL

All admissions are made on a needs basis requiring assessment by an Aged Care Assessment team and acceptance by the Commonwealth Department of Health and Ageing. Units are allocated after assessment and acceptance by the Board Allocations Committee.

An Accommodation Bond of $300,000 is normally required, 10% upon entry to the Hostel and the balance, within 3 months of entry. 

From the Accommodation Bond, the Village is permitted to deduct a maximum charge set by the Government (approx. $3,500 per year) over 5 years.  On leaving the Hostel, the balance of the Accommodation Bond is paid to you, or in the case of death, to your Estate.

A proportion of units are reserved for concessional applicants who are not required to make a lump sum contribution.
