About us

Creating Homes, Changing Lives

What began as a small housing council on the Sunshine Coast is now a Tier 1 community housing provider supporting over 1,500 people across Queensland.

everyone deserves a safe place to call home

For over 30 years, that belief has driven everything we do. We create homes, build strong communities and change lives across the Sunshine Coast, Moreton Bay, Noosa and Gympie regions.

This is Coast2bay

more than a housing provider. We're neighbours, advocates and community builders.

We’re a community housing provider based on the Sunshine Coast and Moreton Bay. We create safe, affordable homes for people and families who need them most. We work alongside government, local partners and everyday people to make sure housing isn’t just available, it’s a foundation for a better life.

30 years of creating homes and changing lives

For over 30 years, Coast2Bay Housing Group has been built on one belief: a safe home changes everything. What began as a small Sunshine Coast housing council in 1993 is now a Tier 1 accredited community housing provider, giving more than 1,500 people across four regions a place to call home.

Guiding Principles

The values that shape how we show up for our residents, our partners and each other.

Person centred

Every person who comes to Coast2Bay has their own story, their own strengths and their own goals. We listen first. We don’t assume what someone needs. We ask, we learn and we walk alongside them. Whether it’s a tenant setting up their first home or a family navigating a difficult time, we start with the person in front of us and build from there.

Community focused

A home is more than four walls. It’s the neighbours who wave good morning, the shared garden that brings people together, the community events that turn strangers into friends. We invest in the spaces and connections that help people feel like they belong, because when people feel part of something, everything gets better.

Innovative

We are creative and design sustainable housing solutions. The housing challenge is always evolving, and so are we. We look for new ways to deliver homes, new models to fund them and new approaches to make them work for the people who live in them. From purpose-built developments to community leasehold programs, we don’t wait for solutions to come to us. We go and find them.

Sustainable

We ensure long-term economic viability, balancing prosperity with care for our environment. We think in decades, not quarters. Every decision we make considers what it means for our communities, our organisation and our environment in the long run. We build homes that are designed to last, manage resources responsibly and plan for growth that strengthens rather than stretches the communities we serve.

Collaborative

We work with others in a transparent, accountable and purposeful way. We can’t do this alone, and we don’t try to. Our partnerships with government, councils, community organisations, private landlords and local businesses are what make housing possible. We show up with honesty, we share what’s working and what isn’t, and we hold ourselves accountable to the people and partners who trust us.

OUR TENANTS YOUR STORY

I absolutely adore it here, and the best thing is knowing that I will always be able to afford the rent, whether I'm working or unwell.

Leanne, Coast2Bay Tenant

I love keeping busy and growing whatever I can here,” he explains. “The gardens build a stronger sense of community for everyone. I feel that I’ve been given a home, so this is my way of giving back.

Warren, Coast2Bay Tenant

I can keep using the gym, meet friends for coffee, go to aqua classes, and visit Mum anytime. As her only support person, this has been a lifesaver. I cannot imagine the alternative. I’m so grateful to Coast2Bay and the staff for their time and patience.
