Lifestyle Difference


We are not here to "build and bolt" like most of our property development competitors. We have a long term focus to ensure that the community is looked after, and the gardens are always looking fantastic. We also have a 30-year plan to constantly improve the community facilities and ensure that they are always as good as new. The proof is in the pudding, with our oldest community in Brookfield still looking fantastic today!
At Lifestyle Communities® we have led the industry in having a deferred management fee which is charged as a percentage of the resale price of your home, payable when you sell. This means that we are just as invested as you are to ensure that you get the best price for your home when you come to sell. We are invested to ensure that the community facilities are maintained and constantly upgraded. We are invested to ensure the gardens are looked after to the highest standard and we are invested with opportunities like Club Lifestyle to give you the very best experience that you can have. Finally we are invested to ensure that everyone who moves into a Lifestyle Community are like-minded and comes with the right spririt to bring the best for all homeowners. As a result, this co-investment and our view of the long-term house price growth has resulted in an average house price growth of over 9% per annum over the last 10 years.
Our community managers are a vital part of the smooth running of our communities. Living onsite and working in the Clubhouse, they're active in ensuring everything presents to the highest standard and that your community is always as spectacular as the day you moved in. They’re also there to collect your parcels, provide advice and will support vou in any way they can.
At Lifestyle, we have a rusted-in formula for your rental increases that does not change so that you have peace of mind about what you will pay living in one of our communities. This is different to many of our competitors who have a market review at 5 or 10 years where they go to the market to reassess what your new rent will be.
As an ASX-listed company in the top 200 in size in Australia we are only focussed in Victoria where we bring all our energy and passion to ensuring we build homes for the way that Victorians want to live. This is also helped by the fact that this all we do. We don’t build offices or shopping centres, we just do one thing really well with a laser-like focus on always reimagining and redesigning each new community.
We've been operating these types of communities for over 20 years and are the pioneers and leaders in Australia of land lease communities, where you own your home while leasing the land. We Victorian-based, with our support office in South Melbourne and our founder is still very active as Managing Director - most homeowners even know him by name! James is as passionate about the business today as he was on day one and is so proud of the way Lifestyle is constantly evolving and improving.

There are lots of decisions to make when taking the leap into the next stage of your life, and Lifestyle Communities® will be right there with you today, tomorrow and into the future. That’s why we’re the best investment on the block!
