Levande's Contract Payment Options
When choose a village, you can pick between two contract payment options: Pay Upfront or Pay Later. The difference is when you pay, not what you get. Both are clearly set out in your contract so you can see how everything works without surprises later.

Option 1
Pay Upfront
With Pay Upfront, a set percentage is paid when you move into the village. No repeat on exit. For some, it keeps things simpler as costs are known from day one. Everything is clearly outlined in your contract, including how it applies to your home.

Option 2
Pay Later
With Pay Later, this cost is deferred until you leave. It builds over time, is calculated annually and capped at a set limit. That means no surprises beyond that point. Full details, including how it’s worked out, are clearly set out in your contract.

Choosing Between Retirement Village Payment Options
Both retirement village payment options support the same level of care, management and village operation. The difference lies in when the management fee is paid, either at entry or at exit.
Levande provides clear explanations of both options so you can weigh them alongside your broader plans. Residents are encouraged to review the residence contract carefully and seek independent advice before selecting their preferred option.
