Agency purpose / vision

Our mission is to provide affordable, secure, financially and environmentally sustainable housing for people on low incomes, primarily in the South and East of Melbourne who are committed to cooperative democracy and engagement.

Agency history

SouthEast was founded through the merger of the Ringwood/Croydon, Oakleigh and Frankston Co-operatives in 2000.
They sought to consolidate community assets and ensure members would have control over an effective and efficient housing management structure.
The new structure worked so well, the Moorabbin Rental Housing Co-operative ceased trading and became part of the organisation in 2004.
SouthEast is the largest Rental Housing Co-operative in Victoria.
