Financial clarity, always
Even before you move, you’ll know what you pay and when, as well as how much is returned and when. With no capital loss, property market fluctuations, marketing or sales costs, you’ll feel confident of your financial footing, always.
6 month payout, guaranteed
When leaving your community, the last thing you want is financial worry for you or your estate. Under our Now, Later and Bond payment options, we assure you that your entry payment is repaid within six months of leaving.
Your life, your way. Discover our new payment options.
As part of making the decision to move into an Aveo community, you choose a contract and opt to discount, defer or not pay your management fee. Tune in to our video on the left to find out more, or contact your sales consultant today and get your questions answered.
Giving you choice in how you pay
We are all different with our own personal circumstances and needs. Knowing you've got choice in when or whether you pay a management fee means you can take your next step with confidence.
Now, our discounted management fee option
Ideal for those that like to plan ahead, our Now payment option gives you access to a discounted management fee. Start your retirement journey with complete peace of mind that you won't have to pay a management fee when you leave.
Later, our deferred management fee option
For those that want to enjoy life to the fullest now, our Later payment option affords you the benefit of deferring your management fee until you leave your community. Enjoy peace of mind knowing any management fee is capped at 35% of your entry payment.
Bond, our no management fee option
Perfect for those with the funds to move now, this payment option affords you the benefit of not paying a management fee by paying a premium entry payment, along with a 3% establishment fee (non-refundable), when moving in. Pay a larger sum of funds when you move, with complete peace of mind that your premium entry payment will be returned to you when you leave.
