How does the land rental system work?

Why is the land rental model less expensive?
Separating the land and home ownership enables us to sell homes in Greenlife Erina for around half of what you would spend if the land component is included. What’s more, once you have bought the home you have access to Greenlife’s resort-quality facilities which are maintained by our staff :
- Stylish swimming pool & recreation area
