Residents enter into a residential site agreement. The residential site agreement gives you exclusive right to occupy the land and to enjoy the villages facilities and services during the term of the agreement.
There are many benefits of this agreement, as residents don’t have to pay stamp duty, council rates or taxes.

Residential Site Agreements can only be terminated in the limited circumstances outlined in the Act, and no resident can be removed without an order from the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal.
