McHardy Housing Co-operative is a new addition to the Community Land Trust (CLT) portfolio, bringing an additional 102 homes to East Vancouver. The co-op features 102 homes consisting of 52 studios, 13 one-bedroom, 26 two-bedroom and 11 three-bedroom units within the six-story building. McHardy is a welcoming, connected, and inclusive neighbourhood with affordable housing for a secure long-term home.
Co-ops offer members advantages often not available in other forms of housing. While in a co-op, members can live in their home as long as they wish and have a say in the decisions in how they are managed. Finally, co-ops are communities in the truest sense of the word, fostering ongoing relationships with neighbours.
Co-op members have security of tenure. This means members who follow their co-op rules and pay their housing charges on time get to enjoy their home for as long as they wish.
McHardy members collaborate with Community Land Trust in the management of their co-op community, and most decisions are made based on a democratic vote.
McHardy attracts members with shared values and lifestyles. Being involved in co-op events and initiatives, members foster strong and lasting relationships with one another.
We are a part of the co-operative community, creating housing that meets economic, social, and cultural needs.
Housing co-operatives are made up of members from all walks of life. They are non-profit, democratic organizations, where each member has a say in the decisions that affect their home. Neighbours look out for one another, building a home together and contributing to the co-op’s prosperity and success
