Benefit from capital gain and a whole lot more at a Karaka Pines village
Karaka Pines Villages was founded on a sincere belief in the core Kiwi value of getting a fair deal. That means you can get more for your money and be a lot better off all round.
Homes in our villages are generously sized and beautifully built. The fittings are top quality, the kitchens are spacious – which is great when family or friends visit – and you have the option of your own garden.
Our facilities fees (often known as a Deferred Management Fee) are significantly lower than average, and you’ll benefit from any capital gain in your property, so your investment is protected.
We think that’s only fair, don’t you?
Protect your investment and your freedom
We believe buying a home for your retirement is like any other property investment, so you should be the one to benefit from the capital gain – not the village operator. If you decide to sell your home at a Karaka Pines village, you choose how much to sell for and whether to accept an offer.
Retaining any capital gain also protects your freedom of choice. If things change, you’ll have the money to do what you need to do next.
