The Benefits of Land Lease Communities
What is a Land Lease Community?
It’s beautifully simple: you own your home, and lease the land it sits on. Your right to stay on the land is protected by state legislation, giving you both peace of mind and flexibility.
This model is becoming increasingly popular thanks to its financial advantages, especially for those looking to “rightsize” while still living life to the fullest. And when you choose The Residences by Chirpy, you’re also joining a vibrant, supportive community designed around connection, wellbeing and fun.
You own the Home, not the Land — and that’s a Win!

And because you're not buying the land:
No stamp duty — which can save you thousands
No entry or exit fees
No hidden charges that come with some retirement village contracts
Plus, your home is yours . That means all capital gains stay with you, not with an operator.
Modest Weekly Site Fees — Made Even More Affordable.
Your weekly site fee covers council rates, community maintenance, and resort facilities — all maintained for you. These fees are simple, transparent, and reviewed annually in line with inflation.
