New Non-Market Affordable Housing

Learn about non-market affordable housing initiatives for low and moderate income households in Surrey.

Non-market rental housing provides homes for low and moderate income households. This housing is managed by non-profit organizations, government agencies, or co-operatives.

Surrey's approach to addressing homelessness and housing affordability challenges for low and moderate income households is guided by strong partnerships with BC Housing, Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation, and non-profit agencies to increase the supply of purpose-built non-market affordable housing units in Surrey.
