Since 1983, the company has been a pioneer in offering affordable retirement homes in friendly, secure environments where residents retain both independence and control over their community's management.
A key advantage of this model is financial transparency: Many costs covered by the service charge—such as building insurance, maintenance, gardening, and domestic help—are expenses homeowners already incur in traditional housing. Furthermore, many residents are eligible for Attendance Allowance, currently available at £68 or £101 per week, which is non-taxable and not means-tested. Advice on claiming this benefit is available for all prospective purchasers.
Please note: Upon resale, the lease includes a transfer premium payable to Retirement Security. This is capped at 3% of the sale price, depending on how long the current owner has lived at the property.
