Housing

Housing at ACHIM is more than a living environment!

SOCIAL AND COMMUNITY HOUSING AT ACHIM

ACHIM offers social and community housing to citizens of greater Montreal. With a lively and safe environment, we promote a lifestyle focused on community and mutual support. Our tenants can get involved in various spheres and at the same time, participate in the community life of the home. Currently, we are responsible for the management of three homes intended for people aged 60 and over, autonomous and semi-autonomous.

Housing eligibility criteria

All eligibility criterias are subject to change without notice.

Our housing is not all subsidized. In fact, 50% of our housing is reserved for people eligible for low rent. It is important to mention that there is currently a waiting list for subsidized housing.

“Social housing is non-profit; it allows us to escape the logic of profit. Its purpose is to house people with low and modest incomes. It is collective, rather than individual, property. In addition, it is subsidized by governments, which allows it to offer housing at a price that respects tenants' ability to pay or at the very least is lower than the market price. »
