Reimagining Affordable Housing

As a provider of quality affordable rentals, HomeEd is home to a diverse group of individuals and families with varied income levels.

All of our properties have different maximum and minimum rent levels which are defined by three different forms of rental housing: 

Mixed Market Housing

Mixed Market Housing has a mixture of tenants that pay a market rental rate, with others who pay a percentage less than market. A tenant’s eligibility for rent subsidization below the market rate is based on an assessment of their household income.

In this way, HomeEd offers an entry point for families on a tight budget into our market-quality homes. It also allows tenants to stay in the home they love as their income grows and can afford market rents.

Community Housing

Community Housing properties receive government funding to ensure rental rates are subsidized well below market rates. Eligibility for community housing is subject to a maximum income level to ensure lower rent levels are preserved for those who truly need it. 

Each building has a maximum and minimum rent rate for each unit type. An income verification process determines a qualified tenant’s rent level.

Condominium Rentals

Condominium Rentals are units owned and rented out by HomeEd within a condominium building. Rent levels are set based on current market conditions, but are at least 10% less than the market rate in the area.
