Connecting Community

Warm, generous hubs of human connectedness.

At a Kevington rental, you are part of more than just the four walls that surround you. When you live or work in one of our properties, you are warmly welcomed into the building and neighbourhood community — a community you will be proud to call home. Some of the ways we connect our tenants and bring joy to people’s lives: 

  • We’re proud to create positive live and workplaces for people and pets
  • You have a direct connection with our local management team
  • Our beautiful spaces are designed for how you live and work
  • We host a variety of events to keep our communities connected
  • Our common areas are environments that excite the senses and spark connection
  • We support causes close to home to positively impact our neighbourhood

The highest standards. The happiest tenants.

Kevington staff members are always friendly and approachable. They are ready and willing to listen and really go above and beyond for their tenants. My favourite thing they do is their tenant appreciation events which are super fun and get the community together.

Lovely buildings and even lovelier people. They really foster a strong community vibe, which is often lacking in other complexes.

As the owner of a construction company, I’ve been involved with Kevington for numerous years on various projects and have a great amount of respect for their team. We have always found them fair, open and honest in our dealings and I would not hesitate to recommend their organization.

I have done the interior design on Kevington's buildings for many years and I have never had developer clients who actually care this deeply about the sense of community they create within their buildings, as well as their sincere commitment to contributing to the neighbourhood around them.

One of the very few landlords who actually care for and about the community that live in their buildings. They strive to make the buildings feel like homes and not isolated silos. Kudos to Kevington!

The management team is great to work with. It is very obvious they care so much about the property and its residents.

Sustainable Practices

A better environment. A better tomorrow.

We believe that the land our rental properties are built on is on loan to us from future generations. We maintain the property and foster community so that it has a sustainable impact for years to come. By acknowledging that our properties and the people who live and work in them are part of the wider environment, we pay close attention to every choice we make. Here’s a bird’s eye view of our commitment to sustainable practices:

  • We are committed to providing environmentally friendly green spaces
  • Our landscaping team utilize drought resistant plants in our gardens
  • The properties are equipped with a programmable sprinkler system to avoid over watering our gardens
  • We limit the use of pesticides and other harmful chemicals
  • Tenants take part in our recycling, composting and waste diversion programs
  • We are actively converting lighting to motion activated LED lighting systems
  • Investing in electric power tools allows us to move away from gas usage
  • Reduced energy and water consumption with energy saving appliances and fixtures at our residential properties
  • Kevington is a member of the Rental Apartment Efficiency Program sponsored by Fortis BC

Building specific initiatives:

  • Producing organic fruit and vegetables from our gardens (Edgemont, District Main, the U)
  • Cultivating bees to help the bee population (Edgemont, District Main, Victoria Drive, Wallace, the U)
  • Recovering heat by recycling vented hot air (Edgemont, District Main, the U)
  • We support car sharing and even have electric car charging stations (Edgemont, Wallace, District Main, the U)
  • We install bicycle storage racks at our properties (Edgemont, District Main, Mattan, Birch, the U)

The highest standards. The happiest tenants.

We have been working with Kevington for years and I cannot think of a more progressive and responsive team. We have been particularly impressed with their willingness to go the extra mile and to offer creative solutions that are truly innovative and always seem to have sustainability in mind - both in keeping the planet healthy, but also in support of general wellness for all of us.

Kevington accomplishes a sense of belonging by developing activities and spaces for their tenants. One solution was to make a community garden integral to the design of the building and to then create a gardening club— a social place where building residents became neighbours and friends. The success of this was amazing to witness.
