Working Towards a Better Tomorrow

OUR STORY

 Our Mission

  1. Provide good quality and affordable rental housing for low and moderate income individuals and families

  2. Increase energy efficiency and reduce long-term operational costs of the existing rental units through an energy upgrade program, as determined by the membership. 

  3. Provide training opportunities for staff, as required

  4. Utilize net zero housing design principles for construction of new residential units.

 Established in 2010, we are an organization that works to create a sense of community in each of our apartment buildings.

 Maitland Street Village

The Maitland Street Village offers one, two and three bedroom suites with one full and one half bathroom in each three bedroom unit. It  has a total of 46 units including 11 one-bedroom adapted suites. It offers electric charging stations, community gardens and a children's  play area.

As a recipient of the Vancouver Island Real Estate Board's 2022 award for Vancouver Island's best affordable housing development, this  building was the first low rise apartment building in B.C. to achieve step 4 using the BC Building Step Code.

Maitland Street tenants benefit from living in a step 4 building. In this all-electric building, hydro costs are extremely low. Currently, costing  $20 - $25 monthly for a three-bedroom suite. A heat pump in each suite provides warmth during the winter months and cooling during the  summer season. 

 High View Apartments

In 2016 the Alberni Low Energy Housing Society purchased and renovated the High View Apartment building with generous support from  BC Housing. With significant improvements to the living environment we have provided bachelor and one-bedroom suites that meet the  overwhelming demand for affordable housing. The cost of utilities are included in the rent.
