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."

Capital gain (a rise in the unit's value)

Not published

No page fetched states explicitly who keeps capital gains on resale.

Full research note

Not published. No page fetched states explicitly who keeps capital gains on resale. The only relevant mechanism found (realliving.co.nz/things-to-know, "WHEN YOU LEAVE" section): "Once your home has been re-licensed, you'll be refunded the original purchase price minus a 'Deferred Management Fee' (DMF)." This formula bases the refund on the resident's original purchase price, not the resale price, which implies (but does not explicitly state) that any capital gain on resale is retained by the operator/village. Flagging this as an inference from the stated refund formula, not a directly published statement.

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.

Confidence: Medium. For DMF% (direct quote, but group-wide not village-specific); low for weekly fee, capital gain and refund timing (not found).

Research note

FAQ states 'Full Disclosure Documents are available on request' but no PDF is linked on the site. All fee terms found are stated as general Real Living company policy (the same operator also runs Pakuranga Park, Epsom Village and Remuera Gardens), so it is not confirmed these exact terms are Warkworth-Oaks-specific. A downloadable brochure and map exist (/downloads/assets/asb49c and /downloads/assets/33c8) but were not fee documents.
