• Understand Collaborative Co-Living: Get a clear view of our model and how it works day to day.
• Essential Communication Skills: Receive an introduction to the principles of Nonviolent Communication (NVC).
• The Residency Pathway: Explore the clear, step-by-step process of becoming a resident.

If you just want a quick peek and want to arrange another session (on-demand!) during the holidays or after, please do let us know!

It takes time to form a collaborative group, even to weigh up your specific pros and cons on applying for a spot at Ginn Rd!  We do not want to rush anyone through this process and do want to offer as many opportunities as possible to let you take your time to familiarise yourself with all aspects of this unique form of housing.

We look forward to connecting with you and helping you explore the possibility of finding your new home at Ginn Road.

Momentum is building at 42 Ginn Road.

• Date: Saturday, December 6th
• Time: 10:00 am – 2:00 pm
• Location: 42 Ginn Road, Malanda
• Focus: Strengthening community bonds and finalising the resident cohort.

First, a huge Thank You to everyone who attended our second introductory session last weekend. The energy in the room was palpable. It was inspiring to see the conversation shift from general curiosity to the spirited “nitty-gritty” of collaborative life.

From Concept to Reality

With the construction of the 5-bedroom (each with an ensuite) dwelling now in its final stages, we are transitioning into the most critical phase yet: Group Formation.

We have discussed the lease and the layout.  Now, in keeping with our “People First” approach, it is time to focus entirely on connection and compatibility. We are inviting serious applicants and interested parties—whether you’ve been with us from the start or are just joining—to help us build the interpersonal bonds that make co-living successful.

Join Us: The Collaborative Group Learning Sessions

The goal of this upcoming session is to move beyond information and start building connections. We want you to see not just the house, but also if you “click” with your potential future neighbors.

• Date: Saturday, December 6th
• Time: 10:00 am – 2:00 pm
• Location: 42 Ginn Road, Malanda
• Focus: Strengthening community bonds and finalising the resident cohort.

What to Expect: You will tour the nearly completed facilities (including the 3.6 acres of beautiful outdoor space!) and participate in facilitated discussions using principles of Nonviolent Communication (NVC). This ensures that as our group forms, all are equipped with tools for deep listening, decision-making, and healthy conflict resolution from day one.

Are you ready to find your place in this community?

We look forward to seeing you on the 6th as we turn this house into a home.

Looking to invest in something that benefits both you and your community?

This session is designed for individuals who:
👉 Are interested in innovative, values-driven property investment models
👉 Have savings but may not be in a position to purchase alone
👉 Want to explore opportunities to co-invest with like-minded people

📅 Sat 8 November
🕒 3 pm – 5 pm
📍 42 Ginn Road, Malanda
🕐 1-hour presentation followed by Q&A

What we’ll cover:
🔸 Innovative ownership and social investment models
🔸 Group investment opportunities for up to five unrelated individuals
🔸 Design and collaboration concepts for new builds or renovations
🔸 Strategies for creating mini-communities that strengthen regional areas
🔸 How shared investment can support both financial and community goals

You’ll also meet Darren Finlay, founder of People Purpose Place, and connect with others who share similar aspirations and financial goals.
