A proven approach

We put people first — and take pride in creating a great place to call home.

Our tailored property management services help you maximize cash flow, minimize vacancies and keep a well-maintained building. We also offer community management services, working directly with residents to help create a great place to call home.

A community is a place for living and growing — where your group's needs are woven into the housing plan, where environmental concerns are considered at the start of the design process rather than as an afterthought, and where comfort and security matter. Partner with CFDI and we'll work with you to create affordable community living.

What we do

Property management services to help your community prosper

From caring property managers to knowledgeable development consultants to community development workers who put people first, the CFDI team has you covered.

Property management

At Community First, we know it is essential that administrative, financial, maintenance and safety procedures are in place to ensure the proper operation of your buildings. Just as essential is having well-trained and knowledgeable staff to implement those procedures.

Capital project consulting

Managing a capital project properly takes professional expertise and resources. We work with you every step of the way — helping you determine the project's specifications, then co-ordinating it from the drawing board to financing and through to final inspection.

Property development

Community First has helped communities finance, design, construct and manage more than 3,700 low- and high-rise residential suites in the Greater Toronto Area. Experienced in both new construction and renovation, we bring the resources and supports to help you create a community that pays dividends to you.

Education & training

We offer workshops on board of directors orientation, legal and financial responsibilities, working together with your community, meeting procedures, newsletter production and resident education, finance, management guidelines and maintenance planning.

Community development

We facilitate the development of a supportive community in harmony with its residents — whether that community houses people with physical or developmental disabilities, families in a high-rise, seniors, or any other group.

Community first

We manage housing so that it stays affordable, well-kept and member-led.

Transparent

Boards see the numbers, the work orders and the decisions — nothing hidden.

Experienced

More than 20 years of co-operative and non-profit housing management in the GTA.

Let's talk about your community.
