With Evergreen Village Zimbali Lakes’s varied healthcare facilities you’re even future-proofed for the eventualities of declining health.

Each life right development has a residents’ committee so that your voice is heard, and the life rights model ensures transparency with regard to operating costs and levies, so you’ll always be aware of how much you’ll be expected to pay. A big advantage when purchasing in a life right development is that no transfer duty or VAT is applicable to this model – even for resales. Ocean Club The Water Club And for the non-retirees?
