Many retirees know that they want to make the move out of their large property, but don’t know where to start. A new, easy-to-follow resource developed by Australia’s leading retirement living provider aims to give retirees the information they need to make a decision that is right for them.
Aveo’s digital Retirement Living Guide offers retirees free access to comprehensive articles, videos and downloadable resources covering the most common questions about downsizing and retirement living and how to navigate the next steps when considering a move to a retirement village.
Aveo’s Head of Marketing and Communications Bridgid Allsopp said the creation of the Guide forms part of the group’s continued commitment to delivering innovation and service excellence to its customers.
“The journey to retirement living is unique to every customer and there is a lot to consider. Older Australians have told us they want more choice and transparency in contracts, flexibility in payment options and certainty about costs, giving them more confidence to navigate this chapter of their lives,” Ms Allsopp said.
“With decades of experience within the Aveo team and in partnership with some of Australia’s best retirement and downsizing experts, we have created this useful resource to empower retirees and their loved ones to be able to make informed choices.”
The Retirement Living Guide offers insights on topics including the range of living options in retirement villages, choosing the right community and life in a retirement village, understanding costs and contracts, care and support options and, finally, how to make the move.
As part of the Guide, Rachel Lane, Director of Aged Care Gurus, provides an explanation of the difference between aged care and retirement living; and how to find the right community that caters to a retiree’s lifestyle and needs.
“It’s important to visit several villages to find the one that’s right for you. Get the vibe of a community by doing the formal tour, then go back for the social events, especially Happy Hour,’’ Ms Lane suggests.
The Retirement Living Guide features insights from other experts including downsizing professional Suzie Dash, Director of Task Tamers; Brad Monk, Senior Financial Advisor from Lifepath Financial Planning; and Danielle Lim, Principal of DSL Law.
