    I have an old colleague in one of these joints. The unit gets refurbished before they move in. However recently the managers have sought to standardise the occupancy agreements as there's several versions. Some of the changes include removing ownership of the private courtyards/gardens. She's heavily involved with her legal bod.

    Read the article this morning and feel that it was very predatory in the interest of profits.

    For those who are interested, which should be everybody in case you end up in one at some unfortunate point in the future, I think this is going to be on tomorrow night at 8.30pm on the ABC at:-

    Bleed Them Dry Until They Die - Four Corners

    It's going to be interesting, and I'm sure the Aveo response will, hopefully, be forthright, and not some product of a PR damage control specialist...
