Retirement Villages

At Warland Solicitors in Newcastle, NSW, our team comprises of highly experienced lawyers that carry decades of experience in all matters pertaining to property law, leases, title ownership, and much more. 


Moving into a retirement village is a big decision to make, and it is essential to understand your rights, and where you stand legally. You can often occupy a retirement village under either a long-term lease, under license, or through strata title ownership. 


There are many things to consider when moving into a retirement village, and our senior law experts in Newcastle are here to help. 


At Warland Solicitors, we can provide legal advice on retirement village issues to all residents of retirement villages throughout New South Wales. Common issues can involve village budgets and recurring charges, management and repairs, and any variations to the service. Moving out of a retirement village also entails having to take care of departure fees, as well as refurbishments and sale of the unit. 


Our team can inform you of all you need to know when it comes to retirement villages, the law, and your rights.

Nursing Homes

New laws have come into force from 1 July 2014 in relation to nursing homes – now called residential care – which are managed differently from retirement village units. Warland Solicitors can also inform you of your rights under this new legislation, the Aged Care (Living Longer Living Better) Act 2013 and all associated regulations. Anyone in care prior to 1 July 2014 is still governed by the Aged Care Act 1997, with a few modifications. 



At Warland Solicitors, we always recommend seeking the advice of an experienced lawyer whilst reviewing alternative retirement villages or nursing homes. Our team can assist you in all matters relating to nursing homes, especially when reviewing the signing any documents regarding occupation. We can also assist you in interpreting the Retirement Villages Act 1999 and can provide you with a full understanding of your legal position.
