Affordable Housing in the City of Powell River and qathet Regional District

Housing is the basis of stability and security for individuals and families. The centre of our social and private lives, a home should be a sanctuary—a place to live in peace, security and dignity.

A broad range of housing is crucial for building and maintaining healthy, vibrant communities, and this is a goal of Life Cycle Housing.

We offer one, two and three bedroom units for families and seniors with varying incomes.  Our rents are generally 10% below market and our tenants do not pay more than 30% of their income on rent.  BC Housing provides some rent subsidies for tenants living on low incomes. 

Directors interview all applicants and preference is given to local residents.

Independent Living

All tenants must be capable of living independently, taking proper care of their unit and getting along with their neighbours.   The Society does not provide any support services to tenants.  

Importance of Maintenance

We prioritize the maintenance of buildings and properties to ensure the best possible standards within our limited resources. All rental units are inspected annually and repaired as needed to prolong the building life, create comfortable and safe homes for our tenants, and to fit into the surrounding neighbourhoods.

We are pet friendly

Tenants may have one small cat or dog, or up to 3 smaller pets (birds, rodents). All pets must be registered before the pet is permitted on our property. No exotic animals or dangerous breeds are permitted.
