The condo is located next to their Phase One development on the same road that will have 11 two-bedroom units and a single one-bedroom unit.

“With the success of Phase 1, we are excited to be able to provide more affordable homeownership opportunities for local families and individuals in the community,” said Susan Zambonin, Habitat CEO. “Thanks to the continued investment from the Government of Canada and CMHC, more lives will be transformed through a community effort to help families build strength, stability and self-reliance.”

The unit provides local families and individuals with affordable housing through Habitat for Humanity’s model of affordable homeownership according to a press release.

This innovative development is supported by the Government of Canada through the National Housing Strategy’s National Housing Co-Investment Fund. The Government of Canada has invested $600,000 into these homes. The funding helps Habitatget closer to creating 1,117 new affordable homes across Canada.

Applications for Phase Two are open until all 12 homeowners are selected. For more information on applying for Habitat PKR homeownership, visit their website.
