Building Affordable Homes

To date in 2025, City-led and supported projects account for 77% of all housing starts in Toronto, including 1,598 affordable homes.

Toronto is in a housing crisis, and the City is taking action by expanding laneway and mid-rise housing, preventing renovictions, supporting tenants, and enabling partners to deliver homes faster and more affordably. The City continues to advocate for additional provincial and federal support to help ensure everyone has a place to call home.

  • Since 2024, $930 million invested in unlocking affordable rental homes
  • The City plans to approve 65,000 rent-controlled homes by 2030
  • 28,000 new homes started since 2024
  • 9,580 new homes under construction with 45 City-supported rental projects
