About this service

Through the Rental Housing Program we help households with low income that cannot obtain suitable and affordable rental housing on the private market.

You may be able to access low-income rental housing if:

your total household income falls within certain income levels;

your present housing is adequate but you pay more than 30 per cent of your total household income towards rent and heat;

your present housing is unsuitable, you pay less than 30 per cent of your total household income for rent; however, suitable housing in your area would cost 30 per cent or more of your total household income.

Where do you go to find low-income rental housing?

Rental housing is provided directly by Newfoundland and Labrador Housing Corporation (NLHC). Province-wide, the corporation rents housing to families with low income, seniors, non-elderly single people, Aboriginal people, individuals with disabilities and others in need of housing.
