Metlifecare acquired the Private Life Care assets of Retirement Villages New Zealand Limited and Vision Senior Living Limited in May 2012 as part of a three way merger. This grew Metlifecare to a village portfolio of 25 as at December 2015.
Major investors in Metlifecare now include Infratil, one of New Zealand's largest infrastructure investor, in partnership with the New Zealand Superannuation Fund
