With rent soaring in Barrie and affordable housing units so hard to come by, we need to look at  creative means to increase the affordable housing stock. The City of Barrie has committed to create 840 new affordable units by 2024.  

Sometimes affordable housing projects get pushback in our community, with residents saying "Not in my backyard!" 
​
But Redwood has partnered with a growing number of homeowners who not only say "Yes, please, in my backyard" but "Actually, in my basement!" The results have been amazing.
