People living in Qualicum Beach with low to moderate incomes have access to 56 new affordable homes with the opening of the Residences at Qualicum Station.

“With costs rising, it’s more important than ever that people have an affordable, stable place to call home,” said Ravi Kahlon, B.C.’s Minister of Housing and Municipal Affairs.

“More new rentals are being built than ever, helping families, seniors and individuals build and strengthen ties to the community they love. We’ll keep working with all levels of government to get homes built that fit people’s needs and budgets.”

The new complex features an apartment building with studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom units, as well as seven three-bedroom town homes.

The building is owned by the Qualicum-Parksville Kiwanis Housing Society and was designed to support people struggling to find affordable housing in the community, including seniors, families and people with disabilities.

The building opened in May and is accepting rental applications.
