The third RFP call for the Building BC: Community Housing Fund (CHF) closed in November 2023. We are no longer accepting proposals at this time.

Overview

The Province of British Columbia created the Community Housing Fund (CHF) in 2018. This fund is a $3.3-billion investment to build more than 20,000 affordable rental homes for people with moderate and low incomes by 2031-32. Approximately 9,000 of these homes are open or underway across the province.

Request for Proposals update

In August 2023, a third RFP call for housing project proposals was issued. The call closed in November 2023. In March 2024, a total of 40 new projects, providing approximately 3,500 rental homes, were selected to move forward.

BC Housing intends to issue another CHF RFP in late 2024/early 2025. Operators / applicants are encouraged to start planning for this round by having conversations with partners, including BC Housing.
