30% of units at Market Rent – for tenants that meet the annual and monthly gross income amounts, AND do not receive any government income assistance/disability. Market Rent is set by BC Housing as the maximum rate for the unit size, typically well below the current private rental market rates.

Current Market Rents at this location are:

1 Bedroom – $930

50% of units at RGI (Rent Geared to Income) – for tenants typically with employment and/or pension incomes that are below the annual gross income amounts. To determine the rent amount, calculate gross monthly income at 30%. (For example, $2000 x 30% = $600)
