Buying from a vendor
Some homes at Lifestyle Communities have been lived in by a previous owner meaning that you would be purchasing from a vendor. This changes the process slightly, but we'll be on hand to support throughout.
If you are purchasing in a newer community, you will be purchasing direct from Lifestyle Communities. Click on the link below to understand that process.
Book a viewing of an available home
Arrange a viewing of your desired home with one of our friendly Lifestyle Consultants or an external real estate agent, who will also give you a tour of the community and take the time to understand your needs.
Each community is unique, so you might not find the right one straight away — but if you’re after something different, we can help guide you to a community that suits your way to live.
90-minute appointment
Your first visit will take about 90 minutes. We'll use this time to get to know you and what you're looking for, tour the Clubhouse and available homes. This gives us plenty of time to cover the basics.
Personalised appointments
One size does not fit all when it comes to downsizing. That's why we personalise each appointment based on your needs.
Visit us many times as you want
Downsizing is a big decision and we know you need time to compare options. Visit as many times as you need to make the right decision for you.
Preparing for your visit
You don't need to prepare anything prior to your appointment, but if you would like to, we recommend completing the following steps.Â
Speak to the Lifestyle Consultant or agent
You'll be able to contact your Lifestyle Consultant or agent before your viewing. You can share what you'd like to discuss and see around the community.
Prepare any questions you have
You've likely got lots of questions. You can write these down and bring them along. Don't worry if you forget something, we will always call you after your visit to check in.
Compare communities
The right community for you might not be the first you visit. We recommend looking at a few communities you'd like to compare.
