The Retirement Village Calculator

Finding the right retirement village can be a difficult and daunting task. Many retirement villages have complicated fee structures that make it difficult to compare them to other villages. The retirement village calculator makes it easier for you to compare different retirement villages by converting their fees to a standardized comparison rent. The retirement village calculator allows you to focus on the things that are important to you. So when you are deciding on a retirement village you can consider the extra personal and financial value of the facilities and services that it offers, as well as other factors like its location. (See COTA Australia’s Media Release regarding the importance of alleviating confusion faced by many people when trying to decide about retirement village living, and choosing between retirement village providers)
