About us

We're proud to be a New Zealand-owned business which is committed to offering a selection of retirement living options. We’re a family-owned and privately managed collective of villages with our heart in the Auckland area.

Making a retirement living decision - how Real Living works

It’s a big decision buying into a retirement village, but it could be one of the best you make. Having all the information beforehand will help you make the right choice for your needs and situation.

  • When you buy

    It’s a bit different from buying residential property, but we can guide you through the process and the options available to you.

  • While you live with us

    While you enjoy the facilities and friendship of our villages, we’ll take care of all the things you won’t want to be bothering with anymore.

  • When you leave

    To help smooth over what can often be a difficult time for residents and their families, we are committed to make this a simple and stress-free process.
