Life Rights are considered a contract whereby a resident enjoys the same benefits as if the home was purchased freehold or sectional title, except the Lonehill Manor (Pty) Ltd remains the owner who carries the responsibility of management and maintenance of the estate.

For more information on life rights, you can read our article here: The Benefits of Life Rights Ownership

Life rights are protected by an act of parliament (Housing Development Schemes for Retired Persons Act 65 of 1988). The Act gives the right of occupation for the remainder of your life and that of your spouse. In terms of the title deed, no developer or property owner can interrupt your right of occupation.
