Departure Fee Calculator

You can use our Departure Fee Calculator to estimate how much a particular departure fee, exit fee or DMF could be over different periods in a range of scenarios.

The formula used to calculate the departure fee can vary greatly from village to village, so you will need to adjust the input variables (green cells) accordingly. Just click on a cell, change the value and press "Enter" or click on another cell. If you need to start again, just refresh the page.

You can find more information about the variables in the calculator in our Departure Fee Calculator Instructions and Explanations.

Please note that the amounts in the "Total Departure Fee" column below are the sum of the 
percentage departure fee, the operator's share of the capital gain (if any) and the administration fee (if any).

Please also note that the Departure Fee Calculator is not a substitute for legal or financial advice. Before making a commitment to move to a retirement village, prospective residents should obtain specific legal and financial advice from independent and qualified practitioners who are familiar with their personal and financial circumstances and their particular legal documentation. Please also review our Terms of Use before you use the calculator. Use constitutes acceptance of those terms.
