Why Join

The RVResidents protects the rights of retirement village residents in New Zealand

The focus is on the Retirement Villages Act 2003 and the Retirement Villages Code of Practice 2008.
The Act defines the rights of retirement village residents when they commit to an Occupation Right Agreement with the owner of the retirement village, in which they purchase a license to occupy a villa, cottage, or apartment.
​It is important that RVResidents spokespeople have a genuine mandate to speak on behalf of the resident body, rather than pursuing issues of importance to an individual.
