The Office d’habitation (OH) Thérèse-De Blainville launched an appeal to owners of housing located in multiple North Shore cities specifically Blainville, Boisbriand, Bois-des-Filion, Rosemère, Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines or Sainte-Thérèse to form a partnership under the Rent Supplement program.
This program allows low-income households to live in housing in the private sector or belonging to housing cooperatives, and to make possible for them to pay a rent corresponding to 25% of their income. The subsidy offered to the landlord will therefore be able to cover the difference between the rent agreed with the latter and the part payable by the tenant.

The advantages of offering housing to the OH Thérèse-De Blainville are numerous:
Firstly, the allocation of the housing selected by the OH liberates the owner of the worry related to the marketing of a vacant housing. Also renting accommodation through OH can help stabilize a building’s clientele and finally, the OH pays the landlord directly the difference between the lease rent and the tenant’s portion.
“In Sainte-Thérèse, several households are currently on waiting lists for subsidized housing. Collaborating with building owners is therefore a very interesting solution for providing affordable housing. Particularly, in the current context, it is a great way to promote mutual assistance between citizens,” said the mayor of Sainte-Thérèse, Mr. Christian Charron.
To offer housing, or for any questions, contact OH Thérèse-De Blainville by phone at 450 434-1149 or by email at info@ohtdb.ca.
The Office d’habitation (OH) Thérèse-De Blainville is a municipal organization that offers management and administration of housing and housing programs, low-rent housing (HLM), the rent supplement program (PSL), the Accès Logis program as well as referrals.
