From 1 May 2026, significant changes to the Retirement Villages Act 1986 (Vic) will introduce new obligations relating to registration, reporting, resident protections, contract disclosure, and ongoing compliance requirements. These reforms significantly increase the complexity of navigating retirement village arrangements.

This seminar focuses on the practical realities of drafting, reviewing, and advising on retirement village agreements in the post-reform landscape, with a strong emphasis on risk, compliance, and managing the impact of these changes in practice.

This seminar will discuss:

  • An overview of the 2026 retirement village reforms.
  • New duties for providing information statements and disclosure duties.
  • Changes affecting standard-form contracts and prescribed wording.
  • Annual financial checks and communications with residents.
  • New reporting, registration and compliance obligations.
  • Emergency management plans and evacuation exercises.
  • Transitional issues for existing contracts and current residents.
  • Risk areas for both lawyers and retirement villages
  • Practical steps for updating documents, policies and workflows.

This seminar offers a clear, practical roadmap for advising retirement village clients through one of the most significant regulatory overhauls in decades.
