The services offered at Forum Court are much greater than usually offered in sheltered housing; there is a team of duty managers, one of whom is always present on site, a team of house keeping assistances provide domestic assistance and 1 1/2 hours of domestic is included within the service charge each week. Additional assistance is available. Facilities at the development include; lounge, conservatory and dining room.

We understand the age restriction to be 60 years.

Transfer Fee

We confirm that there will be a transfer fee payable to RSL (Retirement Security Ltd) each time an owner sells on, or transfers ownership of their dwelling. This is a transferred premium, the calculation of the transfer premium is based on when the transfer takes place as follows:

Up to one year from the first purchase or most recent transfer= 1% of the gross proceeds of sale.

Between years 1 and 2 from the first purchase or most recent transfer= 2% of the gross proceeds of sale.

For 2 years or more from the first purchase or most recent transfer= 3% of the gross proceeds of sale.
