The treasure hunt insured that everyone was on the same path as it led them to all of the display apartments, and highlighted the features within these, such as the pull out pantry in the kitchen, and large vanity’s in the bathrooms. The atmosphere was fabulous and allowed the questions to flow from all that attended as friendly staff were available for discussions.

The Jazz band entertained guests over lunch as the Community Centre became a bustle of excitement with hundreds of people attending the day. As they said goodbye to Pilko, they also received a Bay Waters Gift Bag filled with vouchers and information on businesses in the local area.

It was a great day enjoyed by all…….

A series of information sessions coinciding with the launch of the industry leading ‘RetireAssist’ program offered exclusively by Karidis Corporation Ltd held recently at Bay Waters Glenelg proved to be very popular with retirees and their families alike.

RetireAssist is a bundled package of financial supports to assist retirees move from their home to a retirement lifestyle property and is most often used where the retiree may have a cash shortfall between their home’s value and the entry cost into a village.

This provides the retiree with another option and removes the need for them to seek assistance from family. This alone helps the retiree preserve their independence and, in what have been difficult times for many, often comes as a welcome relief for family members.

The seminar gave retirees and their families an opportunity to ask questions about RetireAssist or indeed any aspect of retirement community life. The questions were many and varied and for many in the audience provided useful insight into the benefits of retirement lifestyle communities.

The best news is that RetireAssist is free of any direct fees or charges and there is no interest to pay.

A free DVD is available which explains the RetireAssist program, if you would like a copy free of any obligation or cost please call us today on 1300 796 311

Printcraft House in Melbourne CBD has been purchased by South Australian developer and entrepreneur Gerry Karidis, of Karidis Corporation Limited, for $3.41 million. With five bidders vying for the property, it sold under the hammer in front of a crowd of approximately 70 people.

Located at 428-430 Little Bourke Street, Melbourne, Printcraft House is a four level office building with a gross floor area of 1611 sqm.

Gerry and son Peter have yet to determine their final project for the property, however, the group has interests in retirement accommodation, student operations, serviced apartments and car parks.

Selling Agent, Mr Fred Nucara, Sales Director of Allard & Shelton Pty Ltd, said:  “The strength of the result reinforces the demand for CBD freehold property - in particular, premises with a development twist”.

Further, “The marketing campaign generated an enormous volume of enquiry from investors, developers and owner-occupiers, and at least one representative from each of these buyer groups competed for the property. It’s difficult to value properties like Printcraft House because buyers show great aggression when a rare CBD opportunity like this arises – they’re not making any more land in the Melbourne CBD grid”.

This is the third Victorian acquisition by the Karidis Corporation, having also purchased AEWL House, 410 Lonsdale Street, Melbourne, for their Eastern seaboard offices and a large infill site of 3.1 hectares in Hallam, earlier this year.
