Mixed Tenure Case Study Series

Description The purpose of this research study is to analyze opportunities and challenges posed by using mixed model development to achieve broader housing objectives. This research examines four housing developments in the province of B.C. that involve mixed tenure, rental rates, and use, to understand the political, economic and social motivations that lead to this form of development and their operational benefits and challenges. Throughout the history of urban development, cities have attempted multiple urban development strategies for low income households. Impact The Mixed Tenure Case Study Series will help demonstrate the motivations, financial considerations, different approaches, successful strategies, benefits, and challenges to mixed tenure housing.
