Why Cohousing?
Ever wondered what it would be like to own a home in a neighbourhood that is welcoming, safe and eco-friendly? Where everyone owns their own home — but works together to maintain and improve their surroundings? If this appeals to you then cohousing may be just what you are looking for.

Cohousing requires 3 main ingredients:
-
social connections
-
effective management and communication
-
efficient operations and maintenance
​
Cohousing works because it has built-in opportunities for socialization and contribution. Both are essential for human connections and engagement.
