Retirement Villages Look Before You Leap

When it comes to Victorian retirement villages the old adage of Look Before You Leap has never been more true. 

The new Jacinta Allan, Nick Staikos, Consumer Affairs Victoria operator centric 2025 version of the retirement villages act makes it even more imperative.

Research, research, research, the best outcome may be not to leap at all.

 

Bad Law is always Bad Law

The Victorian Labor Government is still writing laws that punish the retiree if they do make the decision to downsize into a retirement village. This is on top of the financial punishment they receive from that decision. The new Victorian Retirement Villages Act 2024 is the perfect exemple of that.
