SELLING YOUR HOME
The freedom of choice of the Mossman Rivers lifestyle extends to you when you need, or want, to move in. Life happens, and things inevitably change, whether it is your health, the desire to be closer to family, or simply a change of mind. Whatever the reason at CWRV it is easy to take that next step at any time as you are not locked in for any specific term.
We recommend using our onsite sales consultants for at least a minimum of three months to handle the sale. in our experience, there is solid buyer demand for our established homes thanks to the significant number of over 50's looking to downsize into a lifestyle community.
Best of all you keep 100% of your capital gain, and you do not need to pay any capital gains tax.

REFERRAL PROGRAM
Let us say "Thank you".
When you refer a friend who buys a home we provide a $10,000 referral fee to assist you with you move. Best of all you do not have to live at Mossman Rivers Waters to be part of the referral program. You will need to fill out the referrer and referee form with your sales consultant to become eligible.
FEES AND COST OF LIVING
The Mossman Rivers model wraps many household expenses into your weekly fees. This makes budgeting a breeze and gives you certainty about the cost of living.
You may be eligible for rent assistance if you are receiving a pension through Centrelink. This can reduce your fee by $60/week.
The weekly fee is subject to an annual CPI adjustment or a yearly formula review to factor in any extraordinary rises in government charges rates etc.
We also help you keep a lid on your electricity bills through the design and consumption of our superior energy-efficient homes.
As well as enjoying greater financial peace of mind, you may also have more money to enjoy a better quality of life. Downsizing or sizing right for you often frees up more capital from the sale of the family home.
The weekly fees cover:
-
All community facilities, maintenance and upkeep.
-
A range of community activities and committee.
-
All landscaping (in common areas).
-
Local government charges eg. rates.
-
Water charges.
-
Building Insurance.

Onsite community management - 5 days a week.
-
Bus for outings.

Villa maintenance eg. oven.
