1. Private Units:** We allocate funds to ensure that each of our units is maintained and kept in good condition. Preventative and regular maintenance is conducted to ensure that living is comfortable for our Residents.
2. Renovations of Vacated Units:** Our Residents enjoy an incredibly long tenure, so when a unit becomes vacant, we invest in renovating and updating the unit to meet the needs and preferences of new incoming residents. This ensures that all units are in optimal condition for our new village residents to enjoy.
3. Infrastructure:** Our commitment extends beyond individual units and community building. We are responsible to allocate funds for the maintenance, servicing and programmed replacement and upgrades of the village infrastructure in entirety, this includes village common areas, our private roads, pathways, and other essential inground infrastructure.
