Do I have to sign a lease?
We are licensed under the Retirement Home Authority and are required to have all residents sign a Financial Agreement in order to ensure everyone is aware of their rights and the standards of Harmony Hill Retirement Community. At the time of signing, charges for all services will be explained and provided in writing so you are well informed. As set out in the Financial Agreement, you are required to provide thirty days notice if you wish to leave Harmony Hill for any reason.
