“Gather will create affordable apartments for people whose household income is below the household median (approx. $90,000 in Ontario). Gather will charge rents that will ensure that households are not paying more than 30% of their income on housing. Additionally, Gather is targeting 30% of units to be eligible to receive municipal housing subsidies.”

“These middle-income earners are literally the backbone of our neighbourhood and communities, including health-care workers, education professionals, first responders, construction and skilled trades workers, transportation workers, service sector workers, arts and culture workers and public-sector workers...Yet the numbers tell a stark story as nearly one million ‘essential workers’ across the GTHA earning good, middle-income wages from $52,000 to $104,000 annually are now struggling to secure stable and affordable housing in today’s market.”

Indwell's new initative, Gather, seeks to fill this gap through the creation of affordable homes for those being priced out of today's rental market.

🔊 Big news!

We are pleased to announce a new addition to the Indwell Family of Companies: Gather.

Gather is a brand new Indwell initiative that will create and operate quality affordable homes in welcoming communities for our neighbours who are being priced out of today’s rental housing market.

Don’t worry! Here at Indwell we’ll continue to do what we do best — creating and providing deeply affordable *supportive* homes accompanied by housing, health and social supports for people at risk of being homeless or living in precarious housing.

Gather will build on the Indwell and Flourish experience by meeting the growing need for affordable houses. As a non-profit housing developer and property manager, Gather will offer well-designed high-quality living spaces for households below the Ontario median income (currently $90,000). This will include single-income households, families, newcomers to Canada, and seniors living on fixed incomes.
