Service Charge
We understand that ‘Retirement Security Unlimited‘ supervises
the day to day running of the development, and the current service
charge is payable in the region of £637.38 per calendar month,
which is reviewed annually. We believe that the services and
security provided are excellent and key to supporting seniors in
the block.
Sheltered Housing
The concept of very sheltered housing is to enable retired
people to maintain their independence and remain in their own homes
as long as possible. All communal facilities and all the rooms in
the flat are accessible to everyone including those using
wheelchairs. 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. A double guest suite
with en suite shower room and bathroom is available at a cost of
£55 per night for one person for £65 per night for two people and
this includes a light breakfast. 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

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