Durham Region Non-Profit Housing Corporation was developed as a result of the growing awareness about the lack of affordable housing to meet the requirements of low and moderate income earners whose needs were not being met by the private sector. Given the need for affordable rental housing, which could be produced through capital grants and operating subsidies being made available by senior levels of government, a non-profit housing corporation was created with a mandate to deliver rental accommodation to meet the diverse needs of residents in Durham Region. On January 24, 1985, the Province of Ontario issued Letters Patent creating the Durham Region Non-Profit Housing Corporation.
We offer safe, quality, and affordable rental homes for individuals and families in need.
We assist residents facing personal challenges such as poverty, mental health concerns, and addictions.
We manage both our own buildings and those of other non-profit housing organizations in Durham Region.

You must give our office two full months written notice before you move out. The notice period must begin on the first day of the month. You are responsible for the rent and utilities (if applicable) for the full notice period, even if you move out earlier.
We prepared a report on the condition of your unit before you moved in. Once you’ve given your notice, we prepare another report before you move out. By comparing the two reports, we track damages beyond normal wear and tear, and charge tenants for these damages.
During the notice period, our staff will show your apartment to prospective tenants. You must leave your unit clean and empty when you move out.
