We’re excited to announce that we have won the Best Land Lease Living Award at the 2018 Caravan and Camping Industry Association’s (CCIA) Awards for Excellence.

This award from the New South Wales based CCIA is a recognition of excellence in lease living communities focused on seniors living. As a joint winner, Ingenia Lifestyle The Grange was recognised for its high achievement and success in marketing, sales, community engagement and operations.

The community has been an ongoing success for Ingenia with many over 55s choosing to the innovative land lease model and supportive community environment. The land lease model means no strata management or body corporate fees, no council rates, no stamp duty, no exit fees and no refurbishment costs.

With fewer out-of-pocket housing-related expenses, downsizers are able to free up capital to transition to a new life with better financial health.

Ingenia Operations Manager Stephen McLean said Ingenia Lifestyle had become a strong disruptor to the traditional housing offering for seniors with its land lease ownership model.

“Ingenia Lifestyle have created a simple, competitive, value-driven and transparent housing model, whilst leading innovation in the lifestyle market for Australia’s rapidly ageing population,” Mr McLean said.

“Since acquiring the community in 2013, we have made significant upgrades with the addition of a new $1 million clubhouse for residents and the introduction of community focused events, such as the Be Active program.”

The nation-wide Be Active program offers free monthly events, social engagements and wellness workshops for residents eager to stay fit while in the company of their friends and neighbours.

Each of our unique Ingenia Lifestyle locations have that “welcome feeling” that is sought after by many over 55s downsizers…

“The dedicated team at The Grange deliver an active social calendar and wellbeing program for the residents – the Be Active Program supports, improves and helps residents maintain their lifestyle through events and activities – creating stronger, healthier and more social communities,” he said.

“It’s important for the residents to build connections within the community – we consistently reinvest in and reengage with the community, ensuring that all residents become a part of Ingenia Lifestyle The Grange.”

More than 3,500 Australian seniors currently call an Ingenia community home, across more than 20 locations in New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria. Our over 55s residents enjoy a lifestyle based on independence, wellbeing and active living.

The Ingenia Lifestyle model is unique in that buyers purchase a brand new home and lease, rather than own, the land, offering a much more affordable entry price point and eliminating the need to pay stamp duty.
