Today, we announced the @RentalProFund is securing affordable housing for people living in @LangleyCity_. With this purchase, 108 families will be able to stay in their home, with rents being secured at a minimum of 35% below market rate. 👉🏾 news.gov.bc.ca/30573 🧵 [2/2]
We launched @RentalProFund to protect renters and valuable affordable housing. We heard concerns about Real Estate Investment trusts buying buildings and displacing people. Today the fund is buying homes putting them in not-for-profit hands. Reversing a national trend. 🧵[1/2]
Take action for more co-op housing. Add your voice to the growing call for the federal government to launch the co-operative housing development program without delay. ow.ly/Im9V50R4w3O
