Join the waitlist for an IRT retirement village and be ready to continue your independent and active lifestyle when a property becomes available.
For most IRT retirement villages, you need to be on the waitlist to be offered an apartment or villa. By being on the waitlist, you'll also be kept informed of new projects and activities within IRT.
The waitlist fee is $200 per nominated retirement village. This fee is the same for single residents and couples and is fully refundable at any time. Your village preference is transferable between villages.
If you’re offered a place at your selected village and you’re not quite ready to accept at that time, you can turn down the offer without affecting your position on the waitlist.
Benefits of joining a waitlist:
