What We Are

​

Eastview is a co-operative housing corporation, founded in 1948, subject to Ontario’s Co-Operative Corporations Act. 

​

Eastview is legally obligated to be administered by a Board of Directors, but actual decision-making power democratically derives from the will of the majority of the members.

​

Eastview is an adult building (members and occupants must be at least 30 years of age)

​

Sorry, no pets are allowed at Eastview.

​

Who We Are

​

Eastview’s residents consist of 15 members all of whom hold shares in the co-op. Therefore, Eastview’s members consider themselves not just tenants but owners, as well.

​

The residents of Eastview are not just accidental neighbours - renters of units in commercial property – but members of a cohesive community.

​

How We’re Financed

​

Eastview is debt-free and operating expenses and reserve fund are funded by the modest monthly maintenance fee required of all shareholders.

​

Purchasing a membership in Eastview is different from buying a unit in a condominium. In the case of a condo it is the unit which is purchased, while at Eastview the member buys a block of shares. 

​

What We Offer

​

Comfortable, safe, affordable housing for working people near or at retirement.  The fact that many residents stay 25-30 years (the record being 57) is testimony to the success of Eastview’s model of administrative and fiscal self-sufficiency and community inclusion.

​

Amenities: Free laundry facilities. Green Bin program, annual fire safety inspection, central location  - on a major bus route; close to downtown Kitchener.
