Full research note

No specific dollar amount published on any page fetched (realliving.co.nz, epsomvillage.co.nz, remueragardens.co.nz, or the Warkworth Oaks page). The group site states only: "Our villages charge a weekly fee. The weekly fees are used to cover costs like rates, insurance, maintenance, repairs, staff wages and gardening. This could be a fixed fee or could vary." So whether it is fixed for life is explicitly left open per-village/per-contract, not published as a single answer. Site directs enquirers to "check with your Real Living sales contact."

Not labelled 'capital gain' explicitly, but RLG's wording ('refunded the original purchase price minus' the DMF) implies the refund is based on the original price, not resale price, so the operator, not the resident, appears to retain any uplift. This is group-level wording, not confirmed village-specific.

When you are repaid

Not published

No page fetched (things-to-know, FAQ, or village sites) gives a number of days/weeks after leaving or after re-licensing that the refund is paid

Disclosure statement (the village's summary of the deal)

Not published online. The law says the village must give you one before you sign an occupation right agreement (the contract that lets you live there), and it sets out every fee. Ask for it early.
