Providing a unique approach to independent retirement living, Retirement Security was established in 1983. We have continued to trail blaze for over 40 years with 32 Courts across England and Wales all offering a range of high-level services to make life easier.

Our founder, Bob Bessell, committed to provide retirees with a wider selection of retirement options, ones that offered affordability, a secure environment and a supportive community, alongside retaining financial control – Courts ‘Run by Owners, for Owners’. These carefully designed properties bridge the gap between luxury retirement living and preserving your independence for as long as possible.

It is important to note that a significant proportion of the Service Charge relates to items which the prospective purchaser is responsible for in their present home, such as building insurance, building maintenance, gardening, and domestic help.

The lease provides that a transfer premium is payable to Retirement Security on resale of a property. The maximum premium payable is 3% of the sale price depending on the length of time an Owner has lived at the property. Further information is available from the Court Manager.
