2) What type of heating do you use? What is the cost of this? Do I have to pay water & sewage
The units are heated with electric baseboard. The cost depends upon your life style. The average electric bill is between $150.00 - $200.00 per month. The co-op at this time pays the water & sewage costs
3) Can I see a unit before I apply?
Yes you can see a unit, contact the office by calling (519) 653-2172 to arrange a viewing time or e-mail us by using the e-mail link in the menu to the left.
4) How do I apply to the co-op?
You have to print the application found on this web site. Then mail it to the address on the home page with a cheque for the number of applicants x $15.00. Then a credit check and landlord check is done. Once passed that stage, an interview is scheduled and if things are fine you will be asked to pay the maintenance deposit which is equal to one months housing charge.

You are responsible for the following
- follow the by-laws set out by the co-op
